Sorry Mr. Bonzo, didn't mean to offend. Just parrotting what I have heard. He did praise Monarch for amenities. And he still prefers to use Monarch.

I don't fly much. A trip home to US from the UK once every 2-3 years. And I pay for one trip halfway between visits for my daughter to come to UK. That is the extent of my flying.

I don't believe in cheaps flights because of what they do to the environment. On the other hand, I have to save for so long before I can fly home or fly my daughter here. That's the breaks I have to deal with. Costs may be better when we can travel any time of year. Partner is a lecturer so we are tied to school holidays which are more expensive.
