In this paper, we make an attempt to combine the neutrino trimaximal (TM1 and TM2) mixings and - reflection symmetry in the type-I seesaw model. Such a scenario is highly restrictive and predictive: in addition to three right-handed neutrino masses, there are only five real parameters; all the lepton flavor mixing parameters except for 
will be predicted. The relations between the model parameters and the measurable neutrino parameters will be derived. The implications of this scenario for leptogenesis will be explored in detail. A further reduction of this scenario to the more restrictive and predictive minimal seesaw model with only two right-handed neutrinos will also be considered. In addition, we will also discuss a possible approach to get the desired mass matrices and study the compatibility of the trimaximal - reflection symmetry with texture zeros.
