Thomas Heights (77°47′S 163°52′E) is a line of summit ridges that extend from Bettle Peak Eastward to the Scott Coast, Victoria Land. The feature forms a portion of the divide between the lower ends of Ferrar Glacier and Blue Glacier. Named by the New Zealand Antarctic Place-Names Committee (NZ-APC) in 1983 after Arthur A. Thomas of New Zealand at the suggestion of Robert Findlay, New Zealand Antarctic Research Program (NZARP) geologist to the area, 1977-1981.
