The longest sector I have personally flown a 757 with a full load of passengers on is Bangkok-Bahrain - 7hr 30min airborne - and it was in fact on good old G-MONJ. (Except of course it was 'young' back in 26/02/1992!)

Its a big thumbs up to the Monarch engineers for keeping all the great aircraft going, especially at the 757's age. I just hope that their not scrapped may well be perfect for fed ex plus they don't do very long flights.

Thanks for those links, was great to watch...
So it seems we will be getting an announcement on the new aircraft order in the next few weeks, going by one of the interviews with the Directors about the future, Bombardier definitely don't seem to be ruled out, as they were mentioned.

But they mentioned the importance of "standardization of the fleet".
I can't see the ditching of Airbus and going over to Boeing...
Personally I miss the variety of the "old" days....
However it is nice seeing the smart Yellow and White livery... compared to the spreading growth of orange twin "borejets"
EGBB.... Thanks for the AirTeamImages videos they were very good.

Dear Scandic,
If this was the case Monarch would have made its decision.
It keeps postponing an announcement.....for the past 5 years!
We were told the announcement would be made end of March early April.
Now it is for July.
if Boeing was still not in the race there would be no need of pushing the decision further.
