Wawkrk. I completely agree with your last post. Have just taken time to read up about Monarch.s history, B720 etc and whilst they have done well and are one of the UKs best airlines they have had the time to build up a newer aircraft fleet, compared to Jet2, and with the benefit of tour operators and other contracts continue in business to this day as reasonably profitable. It is not really fair to compare the two and then right off Jet2 as a second rate outfit which they are not. The good people of Yorkshire and elsewhere certainly appreciate a decent low cost airline on the door step and are proving it by using Jet2. To me they seem to be doing all the right things and will be around in many years time, perhaps even a base at Luton.
