The flaw in the `head honcos` argument is that you can`t pre order them, as you would be able to on Jet2. Being a newly reformed cynic I suspect that minimum quantities will be loaded but maximum publicity will be given..Although I do hope I`m wrong....
Will put them to the test in June out of Manchester...
Shame as i thought the previously available to order meals on Monarch were not bad at all, but that was under the previous regime

Manchester A321 Fleet
Anyone know, has the Manchester 321`s been refitted with the new `slimline` seats yet, or will they be before this summer?..Thanks
Should say I know the fleet does move about, especially in the summer..

It's a great idea using ambiant meals. There will be a lot less wastage compared to unsold sandwiches which get binned at the end of every shift. The ambiant meals can be offloaded and reloaded as many times as needed. A very good move.

Monarch will be leasing an A320 from SmartLynx this summer which will be MAN based operating on most likely all routes except GIB (I would Imagine not anyway):

fjencl. To answer your earlier question, the LBA Monarch base is currently one A320.It will be two aircraft from this weekend in time for the new season. LBA usually only sees Monarch A321s when they are substituting for absent A32Os.

I hope the pilots do speak English... point is you're talking about 3-4000 hotel nights for their crew vs using your own, with the costs already taken care of and the flexibility to swap around with sickness etc. not rocket science

Sorry what is the difference between using Smartlynx this summer and then using Jet Time last summer?
Also, TCX used Smartlynx last summer and didn't have too much of an issue.

Monarch airlines owner said to be considering exit after just 17 months
It has already been commented on in the Luton thread that Monarch's greatest asset could be its Gatwick slots paving the way for the airline to disappear.
What could stop a takeover was the Monarch Pension fund but it seems a way to off load the liabilities and to slash the payments to staff has already been put through.

Should the British public vote for "Brexit" in June then Ryanair may need an airline with a UK AOC. The 737MAX's Monarch have on order would fit into the Ryanair fleet. Plus Ryanair get a base at Gatwick!

You've been listening to too much anti-Brexit scaremongering!
A Brexit would make no difference to the UK's membership of the open skies area, which also includes non-EU Morocco and Israel.

Returning to the Monarch issue, I would suggest that every business is for sale, if the right offer comes along
