They are not only leasing a A330, but some other fleets are also doing work for the Hajj Pilgrimage, including the B757 from what I can see on the scheduling system. Apparently the A320/1 fleet may also be helping with slips into SSH and LCA for crew rest/tech stop.

If its capacity/flexibility thats required, could Monarch not try and get hold of more A330s? I understand these are sometimes used on high density short haul when the need arises.

Monarch's performance
OP, is there any way of identyfying the performance of the various bases Monarch use?
Given the rapid expansion of flights and destinations from BHX do its figures there match the performance stats? I might be an indication as to where Monarch's future growth may occur.

Monarch flight from Nice to Birmingham has apparently gone off the runway, Flight was operated by Aurela.
Breaking news so there is currently no link to a website for the story.
