About time it said here in bad grammar .

If you want to pay less for a flight to Spain than a taxi from central London to LHR, good luck. If you enjoy good airlines going to the wall and loads of fantastic workers without a job, crack on and complain. Monarch is a great company. If you feel that it is your duty to complain about paying cock all for your flight, please , I'm sure ,orange, harp or 1960's battle ship grey can help.

Otherwise don't book .

This is for Benob 2 posts below . No idea why this post has come before his .

Sevilla ... that's where we - the original batch of Monarch 737 pilots - did our base training, with Britannia training captains growling at us! (25/26 Nov 1980 B737-2K9 G-DFUB.) Coo ... nearly thirty-one years ago to the day.

I wonder, with the worsening situation in the market, and the specific Red Sea destinations for which they are intended, if the 737-800s will ever come. 2013 is the earliest Monarch could get hold of any, due to high demand.

Wow..I bet Monarch are really bothered by what the ASA has said...just look at the effect that it has had on Baby, Jet2, Ryan, Easy etc etc etc.

A toothless organisation with no power to enforce anything.

Grrr

G-DFUB, remember her and her cousins very well.

By far my favourite airline and I hope their plans for the future go well for them. With APD pricing the 787 out of the long haul market, probably a sound decision to cancel.

Some great folk at the 'front end', just hope those making the decisions from above match their professionalism?

Yes thats a strange one. Your post was timed at 19.37 but appears as 11.24. Seems like you are responding to something posted over 5 hours later.
How about some tottery numbers for Saturday

Ps; This is happening on other threads too. Questions answered hours before the question is asked.

No they have not, the original intake was robbed due to a problem with the one fitted to "JS" a few days back.
The one fitted to "NS" might be on loan, while the ex "JS" one is repaired.

That's give the A300 a new lease of life, it looks great. The new titles suit the 300 a lot better that the 321!

It'll be interesting to see the rest of the fleet

Has it been decided whether it will be an A320/A321 based at Edinburgh for Summer 12, or will it be one of the remaining B752 or even the A300?

A300's for LGW and MAN next summer, so unless a w, cant see one at EDI. A bit of a jump in capacity also.
The new colours look a cluttered mess. No likey.

Edi will be a 757 crewed by Man flight deck (so no Man based 757 next summer!). And cabin crewe i agree , the new colours are appalling , must have taken someone at least 5 minutes to come up with that!

Seat guru suggests 229 757 and 220 for A321 but think it should be 235

I think MKY661 was joking . . .

In my opinion the new titiles would have looked much better / neater without the Spotty 'M' logo infront of them and kept it's single pride of place on the tail. I guess it will grow on me and we will all get used to it though..
