Newly painted, Departing EMA for BHX

Is JB back in service yet?

Yes! Currently airborne operating ZB754 LGW-DLM.

How long has DAJB been in maintenance seems like an age since i saw it.

It is flying. it went to PVK this morning and Is on its way to PMI as we speak....maybe already there..

Can somebody tell what routes the 757's are doing from Manchester this summer, i wouldn't mind getting on one before they disappear forever.

I found this, I think it's quite reliable, included the A330 too. A Friday day return to TFS from Gatwick on both the A330 and 757 seemed pretty good to me, sure it was only about £130.

Any news on the plans to sell monarch by the companies owners?

What plans are they then ?

Yeah they are non existent. :ok:

Well ....... The group provided full financial report last year. being a privatively owned airline there was no need for it.
CAPA wrote a report on it and could not find any other reason that sellinga all or part of the business.
The new MD was asked that question and although he did know nothing,,,, he thought that the company could be floated in the future...
So nothing official but few signs which may make people think the family may not remain the sole owner.

I think an attempted float is more likely than a trade sale, who would be in the market to buy them? what is there to buy

Let's play spot the troll ... LNIDA... :mad:

Good old LNIDA, always one to rely on when there's the opportunity for a bit of trolling on a competitor. :=

Ladies please !! i didn't start it!!
 

I'm just pointing out the very obvious (if you remove rose tinted glasses) that a sale is improbable, transfer of undertakings alone would kill a deal, the aircraft are leased, so your left with a pilot resource and a very strong brand.

MAEL would be a very valuable asset and the travel company also.

Monarch owners are going to have to raise a huge sum of money for any new aircraft order, which in turn will be years away from delivery the silence on this subject is deafening

A float would/could raise the funding, although Flybe's float p*****d off the capital markets big time.

Vueling, Norwegian, Ryanair & easyjet all have undelivered aircraft on FIRM order for delivery in the next 48 months, at least 500+units

So lets see the "family" put their money where their mouth is.

Me i'd keep the MAEL and plough any money from sale/float into that engineering is all about reputation and MAEL is at the top of its game the rest is a mugs game.

Show me the meat Stony, competitor??? you are having a laugh 2013 pax 6.2m 2012 pax 6.3m talk about eyes wide shut, a drop of 100,000 pax PA we call that Wednesday & Thursday morning

Sale prospectus; declining volume low cost carrier seeks floating to fund 3.6bn fleet order :ugh:

Yup, Ryanair have racedo, Norwegian have LNIDA.
Intentionally putting the biggest players together as one lump and comparing to Monarch is not any sensible form of comparison. Monarch only operate bases in the UK, most of the rest are pan European on a dash for growth.

Does anyone have any idea what Cost Index Monarch are using these days?

depends if we are in a rush :eek:

Lol :}, so there's no set CI?

CI depends on airframe and route so is variable for different destinations and aircraft.
