Monarch operates from Manchester and London

Low fares airline Monarch is adding even more flights from Gibraltar to the UK this summer with an additional Friday service to London Luton, which will operate between 24 September and 29 October 2010, according to the Gibraltar Chronicle.

The news follows the airline's recent announcement that it will also operate an additional Sunday flight between Gibraltar and Manchester, and brings the total number of flights operated by Monarch from Gibraltar to the UK this summer to 12 a week.

Commenting on the additional services, Tim Jeans, Managing Director of Monarch Airlines, said “We have been overwhelmed by the demand for flights between Gibraltar and the UK this summer and are pleased to respond to this by continuing to add extra services as we await the opening of the new terminal in Gibraltar.

”Over 65,000 people have already booked their flights on the route this summer and the extra services to London Luton and Manchester will provide a further 4,500 seats, offering an even greater choice of low fare flights at convenient times.”

Self-determination has been ruled to override “territorial integrity” and historical claims.

Spain (and Argentina) must accept this. It's the 21st century law!!

Long live Gibraltar and the Falkland Islands!!

soon Argentina will see sense, and realise all that wealth going to the uk, instead of through Argentinean ports, how long will it be before they say, ok, lets be friends, and you can build your ports here, interesting

more planes will be a good commercial move, particularly as the Mayor of La Linea is attemptingto boost his political platform by copying Argentina and introducing an economic blockade in the form of tolls !
