RE: Most Memorable flight?

I’ve got three memorable flights.

(1) Eurocypria BHX-LCA A320 July 2000.
Enduring five hours of obscene anti-social behaviour from half of
the passengers ~(Ayia Napa clubbers). No action what so ever was taken by the crew which puts them down as my no 1. worst airline ever.

(2) British European BHX-EXT SH360 G-OHBD May 2001.
Flight down to Exeter to interview the MD and Director of Strategy had Claire Short MP on board

(3) Monarch Airlines LTN-GIB-LTN B757 G-MOND 4th August 2002
Roundtrip in the jump seat. 5 hours of cockpit! Bliss.

Didn’t he?!

I’ll have words tomorrow. He said he would when he first got it, but it wouldn’t be that day.

Sorry Steven.

RE: Low Cost Airlines

Good website!

I’m afraid you’ve missed out Monarch Scheduled (http://www.flymonarch.com).

Monarch Airlines have been flying scheduled routes for 17 years out of LTN!! They offer low fares with all the other things that EasyJet and co don’t give you i.e. newspaper, tv, quality 4 course meal, loyalty points, friendly staff and Customer Service etc etc.

ZB fly from
LTN to AGP, ALC, TFS, FAO, GIB and MAH

MAN to AGP, ALC, FAO, PMI (PMI from 1st May)

LGW to AGP, ALC and FAO (LGW is from 1st May)

I would be grateful for Monarch’s inclusion onto your website, as we are as much a low cost airline as the others, and in my opinion, an even better airline.

I did thanks EGNM. I don’t know if you’ve received a reply yet?
You should be receiving a reply.

RE: Ryanair vs GermanWings

Have just booked four of us to go STN-HHN-STN with FR on 18/03 for £1 rtn each incl. taxes!
It wouldn’t except my booking-fee free card type, so I have had to pay a £4 fee, which doubled the cost!!

Schweins.

Ryanair are only doing this because they can’t shift the seats. My mates and i only travel when the low cost airlines are desperate to shift some capacity and they sell it off very cheap!! he he he

RE: Airline Business

Congratulations Mongu! I wish you well with your accountancy qualification.

If you’re looking for a financial job within an airline, they are always going to need people with your qualifications. In terms of whether there may be many job vacancies in the future when you look is hard to say. The airline industry is going through some bumpy turbulence at present (as you will be aware) and it is hard to predict what shape the industry will be in a couple of years away, i.e. will there be fewer carriers? (less job positions).

In terms of MON, they don’t appear to have vacancies for your work area that often. In fact, I can’t remember seeing a vacancy for treasury or management accounts etc whilst being there.
