Considering that in winters past most of Monarchs fleet was grounded during midweek days during the winter trough periods, the addition of new FUE services plus expansion on the LCA routes and other Canaries flying means there ain't so much downtime!

that's good, so does that mean the rumours of a pay cut aren't true then?

renort,

Some people are yes, but all the information you require (as in the details) are on our internal forum for you to see.

Good day

Just a quick one - are MON operating a charter to Las Palmas from MAN this summer? If so, what days and on what aircraft type?

Cheers.

Yes I've tried the Monarch website already but no joy. I'm just having a gander as looking at staff travel and have the TCX and TOM schedules but no access to MON's charter timetable.

Monarch are not operating any charter flights from Manchester to Las Palmas this summer. They commence a scheduled flight on October 19th.

Remember that Monarch sells a lot of flight seats to operators in the market, you may get some very late avail, once the operators release back to the system. Not sure what the time zone is for this now as technology has changed but used to be 96 hours but its been a long time since I have seen Monarchs setup personally.

So I am probably wrong now, it might be very last thing!

There is nothing to report (negatively) from Monarch. Busy winter I have been told


Well a forced 10% paycut across the board together with 40 Flight Deck and a 100 Cabin redundancies is a NEGATIVE in my book.

Lets see what TC and TUI do this winter to see if Monarch's woes are the Barometer for the Industry

Monarchs woes are down to one factor i hear changes may be afoot, lets hope he goes sooner rather than later, its amazing how these characters can breeze in, do untold damage to a company and breeze out again a lot richer, monarch are a fine company i hope they can get back on track soon

Does anyone know if MON would ever consider or have considered coming down to Cardiff? Possibly basing 1 x A320, with TOM at the minute showing no interest in Cardiff there is a market.

Monarchs woes
As a reasonably frequent ZB passenger, may I ask what woes are you refering to?

Monarch Woes!

I think he may be referring to a high ranking person in the company who used to be employed by a low-cost airline that once flew out of Birmingham and was cheap as chips and was also high up with an airline that has a lot of harp tails at Stansted - but of course I may be wrong.

That high ranking person whoever he is needs to watch his step then, id hate to be the person who bankrupted the familys airline, that would be a one way trip to see the fishes whilst wearing a very heavy overcoat
