I've seen at least one reference to TP being "next in trouble", but haven't seen or heard any details. Are they likely to be in serious trouble a couple of months from now?

Also, I couldn't find info on seat pitch for short-haul flights (&lt;3hr). I assume economy is ~31" and Business class ~34", is that right? Is their A319 Business class really 3-3 as shown on their diagram? Or if it's 2-3 (like the BD flight I took earlier this year), are all five seats wider than economy seats, or only some?

Thanks!

Can't answer the first part regarding financial stability of TP - I also have flights with them on the 30th of November so I'm hoping they'll still be around!

Regarding the seating - I believe it is 2+3 in business class (convertible seats). Not sure about the pitch - but 34' is usually standard in C.

Their A310 aircraft, which are used for certain 'short-haul' flights such as to London offer a 43' pitch, their A340 are at 47'.
