They loaded ACE from LGW, MAN and BHX yesterday. So are you saying that LBA and LTN may yet become available?
A considerable amount of people (both Brits and expats) emailed Monarch asking them not to axe ACE for the winter, but because they couldn't tell them when the flights would be released, if at all, most have booked with other airlines. They must have lost so many customers leaving it until now.
