To all Monarch Staff
Its not great that you hear on Sky News of your employers demise I had the same xx years ago when Laker went bust and I heard on the radio - nothing changes - the Company would have dearly loved to have told you.
Someone asked why you couldn't rescue your pax rather than a bunch of Qatari A320's - likely insurance or high risk someone would clamp on of your planes.
After two redundancies I can only offer you these thoughts;
1. Crews will get jobs pretty quick - might not be where they want but they will.
2. Ground Staff might take a little longer, its a crap place to be but in my experience I came out a better person. Be as positive as you can be!
3. If there's any comfort everyone i've chatted to today said Monarch was an airline they would loved to have worked for.
Good Luck
