JET2 / Monarch rumours

Just a few ideas i have with regrading the above

We all know Jet2 is making money on the routes it does but times are hard for ALL airlines and this coming year will be the same.

Monarch is part of a big group.
Monarch is a charter airline which is used by the group to fly its passengers from UK airports abroad.

I believe that Monarch operating costs will be greater than JET2?

Here's the idea......

Maybe Monarch is loosing money and things need to change. Maybe Monarch will revert back to just a charter airline for the groups tour operator?

Monarch may sell a few A321 and the monarch sch business to JET2?
This would allow JET2 to operate from new bases Birmingham and Gatwick without the need for massive start up costs??
Also increasing MAN base massively which would be good as EZY seems to be growning quickly


Maybe monarch buys a small share in JET2 and JET2 does ALL the flying for Cosmos and the group on a deal like British Airways did with FLYbe????
Any losses on the flights for MON then MON will pay the loss?

Something i think is going on if the papers are starting to write stories about it.

What do you guys think?
