No it isn't. You implied that Monarch were changing the operation at EDI for S10 and it is the same as last year.

Noting you didnt answer my query.... Problem with EDI ?
Yet to find a positive post and I have looked very hard.

Have seen comments about "GLA/PIK total would appear to trounce Edinburgh" and "carriers will now run a mile and cut services as FR muscle in" both of which are factually inaccurate.

Also suggestions of new routes seem to get responses such as "rose coloured spectacles".

Back to Monarch, I think that the planned Tenerife flight by TOM may yet become MON with the "W" with Aberdeen being operated by someone else.

Monarch "Best Charter Airline"



Dear Colleague

Last night was another successful night for Monarch as we once again scooped the award for Best Charter Airline at the Travel Weekly Globe Awards held at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London. This is the second consecutive year that we have won this prestigious award, which is voted for by travel agents, and saw us beat off stiff competition from Thomas Cook and Thomson Airways, who were also shortlisted for the award.

In addition, our scheduled product was shortlisted in the Best Scheduled Airline – Europe category, although we narrowly missed out on this to BA.

Well done Monarch , read somewhere today that last year they carried over 8 million punters and this year looks set to be a all time record, nice to see some ones doing well in these difficult times, no doubt the demise of excel and globespam has helped them , ..as they say every cloud has silver lining

Aberdeen will be operated by Air Europa and the Tenerife will be operated by Monarch as suspected.

Congrats spotty M, nice to see them picking up that award, also good to

see them doing well generally in these hard times, as said, the over capacity

taken out by the collapse of excel and globespan has no doubt helped

As far as i'm aware there are 3 SCCM's on the A330's.

1. Purser
2. No.1
3. No.2

I dont know the payscales and i doubt you will find out on here as alot of payscales depend on length of service etc

Monarch 767

I hope that Monarch keep the 767 as its an extra long haul aircraft and i think they might struggle with just the 2 330's to do the long flights.

The Falklands Route is very intensive on crew, and there is a requirement for the a/c to be fitted with some stretchers. Not sure how appealing that contract would be to MON using up the a/c and the crews. They do enough work for the MOD so guess they would have snapped it up if it was viable.
Scandic - MONs long haul has reduced significantly so the 2x 330’s can probably cope with what is left, they are managing at the moment and did so last summer. The 767 is currently in Paris operating for a French carrier and not MON long haul. But I agree it would be nice to see it stay or another one or two turning up

Just a quick update on G-DIMB, as of last week TCX wanted it in service for the first week of May.
Only change looks like a/c might be a couple of extra day in for paint, as TCX would like it in TCX colours and not all white as lease return conditions state.

Probably because the Irish economy is one of the most buggered in Europe and the Irish haven't got ANY money left for holidays!
