Great rumour going around the Monarch crewroom that we are buying you guys at baby. Made me laugh.

ZeBedie 7th Apr 2011 20:02

Well DLH would probably let baby go for £1, so who knows?

Edited to say: no disrespect intended to my possible future colleagues and if I'm wrong, feel free to let me know.

It is not the most stupid idea on earth. In the longer term, there are three companies vying for the same space in the market - Monarch, Jet2 and bmibaby - when there is probably only room for two. It would remove some duplication in the route networks at Birmingham and Manchester, put Monarch into EMA and CWL (it said it wanted to be in EMA, BRS and NCL so feasible that it could see benefit in an alternative) and equip Monarch with some smaller aircraft to keep frequency up during the shoulder and winter seasons.

The interesting point would be whether Monarch would want to blow its brains out on the baby domestic & short-haul services....

In scheme, but still awaiting Toy registration, ex Thomson fleet out for runs today.

Oh Lord, not this rumour again!!!!!!

Ooooh, its looking good baby! I believe it will become G-TOYL. Come on though baby get your livery upto scratch now across the fleet! I know it's easier said than done but it's over a year since this revised individual tail livery went ahead now!!!!!!

OliWW 7th Apr 2011 21:12

ex G-THOP will be next... and I then believe it to be G-TOYH which I think is the last until next winter...

Skipness One Echo 8th Apr 2011 10:11

They've already got a G-TOYH I'm afraid.

mathers_wales_uk 8th Apr 2011 10:14

OliWW meant on the aircraft that are going to be painted in the now logo with individual tail livery if i'm correct.

Not relating on new aircraft / aircraft registration

OliWW 8th Apr 2011 18:54

Yeh that is right, sorry if it wasn't very clear, ex G-THOP... (G-TOYN) will be painted in full livery, along with G-TOYH by the end of May as I've heard... don't hold your breath though!

G-VCED 9th Apr 2011 10:54

I was going to suggest that they should make the baby look like its hanging on to the tail, looks like someone else was on the same wavelength here.

For Mash Get Smash
 
I now recall where I think they got the idea for the new baby's head from... :O

G-THOL Looking fresh in her new scheme, but that Monarch rumor is a complete load of rubbish.

Have to agree, more likely that babay will end up with Jet2 than Monarch, having said that i can't see bmi getting shot anytime soon. Baby seem to be in a catch 22 the question is who needs who most?

Will baby ever be given the green light to expand, do they need to?

You seem very well informed for a schoolboy. What is the source of your information?

I think bmibaby319 works in the "office" with SKIPNESS ONE ECHO :D

Flypuppy 10th Apr 2011 10:26

Tiny Town, Donnington Hall or Hastings House?

Little Blue 10th Apr 2011 16:22

I think you'll find there will be no baby at Tinytown in the next month or so....they are all being moved back to Hastings House....what a waste !

Flypuppy 10th Apr 2011 18:55

Fully aware of that, the bun fight for desk space has already begun with IT moving downstairs at HH...

Play the ball and not the man mon ami. I work in an office that keeps the money coming in for the airlines. Enough said on an anonymous forum thank you.

bmibaby
 
Rumours internally and now externally about an announcement from the bmi group expected soon. Could it be some good news such as the long awaited new aircraft at bmibaby or something totally in the other direction?
