Marjan Schoeke, Head of Network Development for Monarch Airlines comments:

“Next year’s schedule (summer 16) offers more flights from our most popular destinations at Leeds Bradford as well as introducing a new route to Malaga on the Costa Del Sol. This follows the launch of our summer 2016 programme last month when over 80% of Leeds Bradford’s summer schedule went on sale.”

"The introduction of Malaga from Leeds Bradford is a welcome addition to the Monarch route network serving the Costa Del Sol region for holidaymakers and overseas property owners alike. The continuation of the Naples programme for Summer 2016 means that the Amalfi Coast, Capri and Sorrento will once again welcome visitors from Yorkshire whilst the additional flights added to Faro and Dalaman will mean that Monarch will offer increased choice across 10 sun and city destinations from Leeds Bradford.’’
