When Bath Travel operated a New York flight from Exeter a few times it was a 757 and Thomson used a 767 from Bournemouth but such was the demand they came to Monarch to operate a larger aircraft as the flights have always been a sell out with a waiting list ! so hopefully it will be the A300 again

Flying the flag!
Away from the airport Monarch have had an impressive presence in BHX this summer; flags listing their destinations are flying from lamposts on most major roads leading into the city, also a city-centre 'beach' which has proved very popular as a promotional aid.
Do Monarch have a similar profile in their other airport locations or is this special to BHX? Can anything else be read into this?

Well if you don't understand it, and evidently have no knowledge of what is going on, then don't comment on it!

'Dynamic Programme Management’ is hampered by their bizarre and frankly inexplicable commercial agendas.

Have ZB massively cut back on Summer 2010 schedule.
Destinations such as ALC AGP FAO from MAN and LGW originally had two flights on most days. The timetable is now showing only one. Other destinations are also affected

The fact those A300 -600,s achieve the dispatch reliabilty they do is tribute to the monarch engineers, they do an amazing job keeping those things in the air
What a load of tosh!......There are plenty of airliners in the air of a similar vintage and I can assure you they don't get "special treatment"! (BA's early 747-400's and some of the TOM ex FCA 757/767's spring to mind)
Any airliner correctly maintained will keep flying. Sure, the C & D checks get progresivily heavier but if an operator decides to keep an aircraft in the air it doesn't require miracles!

Your right about monarch engineers smudge as someone employed in aviation personnel recruitment i can tell you they have a second to none reputation in the business for excellence, if anyone can keep those old 300-600,s flying they can
Heard the other day monarch are actually increasing flights from man/lgw next year, hope so, i use them from lgw a great deal

Given the dreadful state of their aircraft boeing eng i dont think super human feats are performed very often in jet 2 land, perhaps they should consider letting monarch carry out their line maintainence they just might be able to sort out those awfull 757,s whos cabins actually do fall apart around you as you travel
