I havn't flown to Florida with them, but last year my friend did. She arrived safe and sound, she had complaints at all. They were efficient and comfotable - she is a big girl - 5ft 12" size 18.

does that help???

Hi Liesa,

We have had guests fly to Florida using Monarch and they had no complaints. I'm sure you will be fine

If they are on the Airbus I think the do have the seatback TV's. Why not call the airline or try their website?

They are one of the charter airlines, so don't expect free drinks etc, but they have upgraded the seat pitch and now offer a lot more legroom.

I was talking to an owner the other day and she flew on a Monarch plane which unfortunately didn't have seat back tv's.

No seat back tvs in Monarch, but food was good. Our first flight was with Monarch and we flew to Egypt with them in 2006.

Hi All

Just to bring this topic back to life. We're thinking of flying with Monarch to Sanford in September. Their "Monarch Premium" upgrade seems to be a good option for a little bit more room, individual screens etc. and 30kg baggage allowance

Has anyone used this recently to Sanford? Any experiences (good or bad!) to report?

Anyone know what type of plane Monarch use to fly to Sanford? Looking at their web site, it appears to be an Airbus A330, or a 767, 'cause these are the only ones with a Premium cabin.

Thanks

Steve

Just to report that we flew Monarch economy in May. Everything was fine, staff friendly, food OK (you can't rave about aircraft food anyway!), though no seat back TVs.

Not sure about upgrading though Liesa as we went through the flythomascook website to book ours.

This is going through the Monarch web site ([edited out]) to book direct with them. There's more information on their web site about the Premier Cabin ([edited out]). They do say:

"To arrange an upgrade, please contact your tour operator directly. Upgrades cannot be arranged through Monarch Airlines directly."

I takes the cost of 2 adults and 1 child flying from just under £1300 to around £1800. If it keeps a 3 year old happier, it's money well spent!

I flew Premium with Monarch to Sandford about 18 months ago. The seats had extra width, legroom and individual tvs. Very comfy and the food wasn't bad at all. It was well worth paying the extra for premium.

Another advantage is a dedicated chech in (or skip the queue) which saved us at least an hour waiting in line.
