They've officailly moved! Haven seen any pictures yet or weather they were using airbridges or remote stands but i did found this cool video showing their new check-in area. Looking nice:

there already a 321 on stand 208 dont know the reg been there for most of the afternoon

Its was G-OZBM used on the ZB654 to Malaga it was their first departure from T2 and it pushed 5 mins early

[brian_dromey]

Do Monarch have their own level at T2 then? IT seems they have an entire area to themselves?

G-EOMA

Does anyone know when G-EOMA is back from Hadj lease and what will happen to her when she's back in the UK?

[Topspotter]

By all accounts they pushed a hard bargain and got a very good deal from the airport as a sweetener to move to T2...

[Mr @ Spotty M]

Yes, she is back around 14th December, she is going into the MAEL MAN hangar on the 14th for a "2C" Check.

and then apparently getting the new Monarch.co.uk logo on its fuse (according to previous posts). Hopefully it will look good. Still only the one A321 with the new decals though i thought they would have started by now

It takes time, firstly once the design was agreed, you then have to get the manufacturing quotes.
The next problem is getting them fitted, down time and hangar space, as it is not the right time of year to try fitting them outside.

Thanks Spotty M!

So you reckon then G-SMAN will be operating the Enthusiasts flight to MAN on Dec 16th? lol

[MKY661]

I wanted to go on that but unfortunately it starts from LGW and my nearest Airport is LPL but i use MAN a lot so would prefer MAN - LGW - MAN rather than LGW - MAN - LGW

[MKY661]

Does anyone know if flight MON9035 from BOO - LGW was a one off flight or if it operates regularly?

[Mr @ Spotty M]

Its an Ad-Hoc charter.

[MKY661]

According to the TOM thread ZB are coming back to EDI? Dont know if true but just thought id post here.

[Airbus321-200]

Yeah monarch will be back in EDI from what i hear. 99.5% sure of it.

[MKY661]

What was a Monarch 757 doing in JFK on Sunday ?

[Mr @ Spotty M]

Doing the yearly shopping trip from BOH.

Is there any more information on when Monarch are receiving the 737-800's? Any ideas on where they are going to be based?

[on time all the time]

......there aren't any B737-800 coming....so far. None ordered...shall I say yet....
The last info from management was they were still evaluating....
I think they may have seen the storm coming and have remained very prudent. So only 2 second hand A320s next summer.
