£70 return from luton to Copenhagen or Luton to zurich is insane given that the landing costs are unusually high in both airports and more importantly the times suit commuters really well
7AM flight out of luton - 9PM flight on Thursday
If Monarch are in trouble you can bet easyjet and ryanair are feeling the pinch as well
Monarch was apparently flying planes half empty for over 6 months. Easyjet/Ryanair/Norwegian/other low cost operator would have realised within 3 months that flight/route wasn't profitable and would have axed it.

Monarch have been loosing money and market share for years. With the £ dropping against the Euro over the last 15 years and an unsustainable business model competing against the budget airlines, The result was inevitable.
But yeah, blame it on Brexit just like the Vegas shooting.

Everyone in the last 12 years who have put money into them haven't made much if anything at all. The final straw was the terrorist threats in the holiday destinations in the Middle East which means they couldn't fly there.

Originally posted by northernladyuk View PostNo. But it looks as if Brexit was a contributing factor. They were probably doomed anyway.

Originally posted by xoggoth View PostSo it's all due to Brexit? Interesting that Monarch is the third major European airline to collapse since August and analysts say that more losers could emerge in the coming months as smaller, weaker players come under pressure.
