-I was thinking about this earlier today, I came to a conclusion that they would be retired but I would like to see if there is any evidence to support this.

-Why would they retire them?
G-SMAN and G-EOMA were only built in 1999. I'd say the A300s would go before the A330s, but some of them 4 are in the new livery.

-They are thinking about not repainting them as they usually take them out of service in the Winter season. Also, they are always going tech.

-They will be re-painted when they come in for a D-check (I think) which is due sometime this winter.

The A330's are making a few flights this winter from LBA to the Carribean so they can't be out of service all winter.

-No not all winter. But they aren't utilised as much. Or from what I've been told.

They also use them to the Carribean

-The first 332 is going to Zurich tomorrow for a check and repaint, the other is going on the 18th.
There are no Monarch P&O flights from LBA this winter, believe Thomsonfly now have those.

Thats sad news, I was looking forward to seeing a Monarch A330 at LBA, only seen the A300's there.

-I imagine Monarch will use them a lot around Christmas/New Year however

This time last year I was asking when Monarch will be painting their 2 A330's into the new colours and somebody said that they will be painted up this Winter 2005/2006.
Does anybody know if and when this is going to happen this winter? Can't wait to see them in the new scheme!
Thanks
