Cancelled routes to Granada
Many thanks - I shall keep my ears open!
Hi Anne,
The airlines tend to be very good at announcing new routes but keep the cancellations very quiet! I haven't heard anything about Gatwick/Granada but it looks to me as though Monarch are still negotiating with the airport for the period after March 2008 and haven't yet decided whether to continue the route. If it is going to carry on then it should be announced by December.
Sorry not to have more positive news.

Have I missed some news? Are Monarch cancelling their Gatwick / Granada route? Monarch's website is showing no flights available as from end of March next year and, since this weekend, the prices for flights between 4 November to March have all increased to £289!! As some of these were being offered last week at £29.99, it seems as though something must be happening but I cannot find any information.
Regards
Anne Walker

Re your earlier query re monarch out of Gatwick :
They have today announced cancellation of this route and the one to Lisbon. Our daughter is booked already to return on 9 December but all flights cancelled after 4 November. Their absolutely pathetic offer is to put her on a flight from Malaga (miles away and no payment for the coach etc to get there) or full refund and then she has to try to get a one way ticket. Its appalling and very disappointing (and very distressing for her and her friends) as we had already been out on this route and lots of others were planning to visit by Monarch and the only 'choice' now is Ryanair which is now the only UK based airline to fly directly to Granada- not very good for the Spanish tourist industry either. We were planning to have lots of long weekends visiting and to go skiing there next Feb and now I’m not so sure.

Have today had notification our booking to Granada cancelled, all flights cancelled as from 4th November (we were due to travel on 9th!) Am very peeved, lots of arrangments will have to be cancelled and re-arranged, looks like we'll have to fly with Iberia and go via Madrid to land in Granada, other wise it means flying ryanair by they only go from Stanstead (not very convenient from Bristol!) Very annoyed at just being offered alternative to Malaga (not even close!)and no other compensation or offer of free transfers!
Rubbish service!!!!
