Oh yeah it will be painted back into Monarch colours like but will it be in the new livery or not because when SMAN went last year it got a Garuda scheme but i thought when it came back it would be painted into the lower case m and monarch.co.uk scheme (which was the new livery at the time) but it didn't it got painted back into the capital M scheme with flymonarch.com on the back.

So Im not sure if it will be painted in BT's livery (which is to be tweaked) or its livery it originally had (Capital M old one flymonarch.com)

To answer some of the livery questions.
"BT" the change will be that the new titles will be replaced with larger ones.
G-SMAN on return from the hajj did not get any paint applied, as all the Garuda markings were decals or plastic covering (tail).
G-EOMA is on a "C" check due to start 14th December on its return and then a respray into the new livery.
G-SMAN is also due a respray in 2012 more than likely after its "C" check.
To answer the question on the MON8456/MON8457 flight to AGP, it was not a charter flight but a ZB sweeper flight.
Due to A300 out of service a Titan B757 was used for the AGP, with MON8456/MON8457 carrying the remaining pax.

Thanks Mr @ Spotty M. You Rule.

Anyone else except BT and EOMA due for a respray this year? Hopefully BN and an A320 will.

Monarch do still have 4 A300's in their fleet so definately not retired! They reguarly operate flights from the UK to Spanish destinations, as well as many others.

If it was a Saturday then Monarch do a Saturday rotation with an A300:
MAN - PMI - LTN - PMI - MAN

I dont think the A300 is at luton any other time.

Doubt they will take this. This is an even longer wait than the 787. Hopefully they will get a better deal for something else soon.

We are still awaiting the fleet review to be announced, but my guess is that they will be around for a few more years yet.

Wasn't it announced a few months back that they will be taking seats out of the A300's for next yr??

I'm not talking about the 9 seats that were already removed. But there was talk of at least 42 seats coming out.
