Pure, possibly unfounded and irresponsible speculation was that Monarch were therefore going bust. It could equally have been that a Spanish hotel chain was in difficulties, cruise line on the brink, coup d'etat in the offing in Spain, or indeed an airline in trouble.
The most likely outcome, as a direct result of the speculation is the untimely demise of an airline and 2800 jobs. Good game; good game!!!
If a Spanish hotel chain was in difficulties, or a cruise line on the brink, why were there aircraft in position to repatriate only British tourists and not one of the other countries in Europe had done a thing for their own citizens? And as for the coup d'etat, now we are entering fantasy land.
Real aircraft and their real crews have been moved round the world on the instructions of the UK CAA, and you think the whole thing was made up by some bloke on the internet as a game?
