Thomson also tried to do a one hour turnaround on the flights from London and Manchester, and never managed it. You cannot turn around a plane in an hour at TLV. It takes about 20-30 minutes just to empty the plane, and what about cleaning and reloading?

The fact that Thomson was late on practically every flight caused a lot of ill will especially from the people waiting in England to pick up the passengers, considering the flights were scheduled for 10 and 11 PM arrivals
