Monarch have suspended their use of Aurela, after the incident at Birmingham airport.

There are a couple of other threads running about Monarch - "Are Monarch really so bad" and one from Sanjii "What the hell are Monarch playing at" which actually includes link to a video which, to me, indicates just how much Monarch really care about passenger safety. (not a lot!)
Having flown with them a few times in the past, and had regular delays and horrible flights, and having seen other recent posted comments on HT, and having seen the recent fiasco at Birmingham airport, I think I'd rather walk and swim to wherever than book a Monarch flight.

I've flown with them twice this year, and no complaints. I also used them last year. I was going to book fights for next with them, only Jet2 introduced a new route which is great for us, so I booked with them instead.

All very well and good saying that, but did you get bumped onto an old Lithuanian crate for your 2 flights.?
Anyone who hadn't been on one of these wet-lease planes, IMO, wouldn't have anything to complain about.

Now Monarch are singing from the hymn sheet that the wet-leasing is expected to end at the end of October, which is absolutely no consolation to the thousands of passengers that paid out money, for a level of service which they didn't receive this summer.

Anybody remember the days of the 'Crown Service' that Monarch used to pride itself on?
They've come a long way since those days, unfortunately, in the wrong direction, and if this summer's fiasco is the regard they hold for their customers, they deserve to go bust.

Aviation standards and safety?
Bill, put the evidence in front of them and the silence is deafening. ;)

:rofl :kiss How do you know that? (I'm joking)

Fantastic when the lovely Darren can tell you what aircraft is going to be operating your flight, and Monarch don't know.

I know who I believe, and it ain't Monarch . ;)
