Self-moderated ?
Well, well ,well, what happened to the 'reply' from Hamrah denying any deal which appeared on this thread for a very short window on Monday night/Tuesday am before disappearing (like magic) by lunchtime ?

My apologies.
We had a discussion about these constant rumours, and feel we should stop replying to them. If you care to do a search you will see that this and other rumours have appeared regularly over the past few years, and nothing has come of them.
Rumours like this are unsettling for our staff and customers. As this is a rumour network we can't stop people starting or spreading them. However, we can and will henceforth, ignore them.
Where we have something to tell our staff, we will do so through the appropriate channels.
Thanks

Have heard through other sources that this is more than a rumour. The is an issue with fleet synergie but other factors make the project viable for both sides...watch this space!!!
If youve got something substantive by all in means! In other words put up or shut up

I had not heard any rumour before about Monarch and Astraeus but there are numerous rumours about consolidation in the low cost sector. I know that there have been many Monarch flight cancellations in recent weeks. These seem to be caused by week demand rather than any product problem. On a recent ZB flight I was shown an invoice by another pax which showed that she had been charges £0.01 including taxes. The market to Spain (except Madrid) is stunningly weak at this time and cash flow must be a problem for all airlines in that sector. I do expect some announcements about consolidation within the next month.

The cancelled flights probably have just as much to do with a shortage of crews rather than weak demand, as far as Im aware MON loads are pretty reasonable, and their yields are very good.
As a back up to this have a look on the website, and have a look in last weeks flight international...most of the other cancellations were due to A/C tech issues

Monarch to Malaga
I am off to Malaga again this September from Luton and I have just booked my flights with Monarch (I do like them, got the outbound leg for £14.99 each). The flight is the last one out on a Sunday evening.
I have just noticed that the flight number is 824 which seems a little 'out of sequence' from the norm. Have been with them before and always the flight numbers seem to be 0**.
Is it me or is there something significant with this particular flight?
