Monarch - 3

[Alex321]

Sorry to disappoint if this is the case but just had a further look at the system now I have your date of travel and on the 12/01/13 only the B757 rotation is being done by an A321 as it stands at the moment.

A330 was just covering for a tech A300 in TFS this weekend. In addition to these, they have a further four flights (3x charter) from LGW-GNB on a Sunday morning throughout the ski season.

Nice to see days where almost the entire fleet (at LGW at least) are dedicated to charter flights.

Thank you !

I meant LGW - doh ! Returning on 21/1.......

[Alex321]

Currently looks to be an A321

[SCANDIC]

Will the 757's be sold to fed ex next year or will they be to old for fed ex to take. MONB and MONE are still going strong.

[Mr @ Spotty M]

I very much doubt it.

[SCANDIC]

Well you never know.

[MKY661]

Does anyone know where the second hand A321 due in March is coming from?

[Waldo]

From Thomson

[SCANDIC]

Suprised at Monarch getting 321 with different engines.

[Andrew R]

Does anyone know what the loads are like on LGW - BCN this time of year? Is there any point booking seats online? Travelling to BCN this Friday from LGW and just wondering. What aircraft are they using - A321 or 757?

Many thanks

[Alex321]

LGW - BCN

Booked to be an A321

Monarch BHX to Lanzarote A/C & carrier?

Just about to book Birmingham to Lanzarote Sat Early May. After the Runway incident can anyone confirm if the route is still opertated by Monarch / Monarch A/C and crew or has it been subbed to the east europeans etc like Air explore .
Thanks

[MANTFS]

Only Mon aircraft doing Mon flights since November. It will be either a 320 or 321 at Bhx

[tjamesbo]

Thanks I've always enjoyed their A/C & Crew in past flights I do not want to book with them and end up with a different carrier as a starting point

Leeds - Grenoble cancelled?

Just tried to book some flights to Grenoble from Leeds in FEB - looks like they've cancelled completely from end of January. Anybody know whats going on?

I understand that Monarch has concluded a sponsorship deal with Leeds United, presumably linked to their expansion at LBA.

While this may attract a few extra punters from Leeds, will it not put off vast swathes of people from Bradford, Huddersfield, Sheffield, Hull, Rotherham, Barnsley and everywhere else across the LBA catchment area where they hate Leeds United?

It's always struck me that airline sponsorship of football teams is potentially counter-productive. Are Etihad flights out of Manchester full of City fans and Turkish flights full of United fans? Do Spurs fans avoid Arsenal-sponsoring Emirates?

I know flybe have also followed this route with G-KKEV at Newcastle and support for Exeter City. I'd be interested to hear views from the Yorkshire area as to whether Monarch is on to a winner or a loser on this one.
