You use 4% of your fuel an hour just to carry it so these days we tend only to tank to a destination if there is a significant price differential

I think they may need to. G-DAJB has went tech twice in one week. The flight was currently operating Corfu-Edinburgh when it diverted.

The answer to your question is YES, but you will have to wait for more details , an announcement should not be that far off.

I know the 757's go at the end of 2014 although i do remember back in April that one of the cabin crew said it might be earlier. I do know that an A320 and an A300 are going at the end of the year with another A300 going at the end of 2013 and the last two going at the end of 2014. I also think they might get rid of the other two old A320's who are not going at the end of this year (BB and NX)

It has just taken off from MAN en route to MJT and for some reason is doing numerous circles around DSA

Its flying quite low overhead, (12000) Quite loud in fact the usual volume you hear when one has just taken off. OTT Crowle North lincs (8 miles ish from the end of DSA runway 20).
Been circling for what seems like 40 mins or so

Considering MON1874 was suppose to be going at 0640 originally and then they got told 1530...I would be a bit annoyed if this is a big issue now. Not a good day

Highlights of Monarch's Plan According To Commercial Director:

Monarch are to add 4 more aircraft to their fleet this summer to enable them to operate the new flights from birmingham and what not, with the fleet rising to 38 next summer.

They are also looking at opening a new regional base in the UK next year - LBA?

They are also looking at standardizing their current fleet.
