From the independent
As thousands of Monarch passengers fly to Spain, Portugal, Greece and beyond, the beleaguered airline has effectively stopped selling tickets.
Test bookings made on Saturday night by The Independent found thousands of seats on routes such as Gatwick-Malaga, Birmingham-Barcelona and Manchester-Stockholm on sale for £32 one-way. But this morning the minimum price for any outbound Monarch flight has risen by £100.
On Wednesday 11 October, the fare on the benchmark Gatwick-Barcelona route is £132 on Monarch — four times the prevailing fare on easyJet, Norwegian and Vueling.
