Monarch Knows How to Keep Ski Enthusiasts Happy

As reports PRNewswire, leading scheduled leisure airline, Monarch, plans to launch a total of twelve new routes for winter 2012/13 including scheduled flights from Leeds Bradford International Airport, England.

Expanding on its already extensive network of scheduled destinations, ten of the new routes will provide easy access to some of Europe's best winter ski resorts via Grenoble airport in France and Friedrichshafen and Munich airports in Germany.

Grenoble, Friedrichshafen and Munich airports are famed for their excellent links to ski resorts covering the Western, Central & Northern and also Eastern Alps in France, Switzerland, Bavaria and Austria. Complementing these new services, the airline's existing services to Milan, Venice and Verona, which will operate year-round, are ideally placed for access to the Southern Alps and the Dolomites. In addition Munich provides year-round appeal with many seasonal and cultural events such as the world's largest fair, Oktober Fest, held annually for 16 days in September and October.

The remaining three routes of the British charter airline will target holidaymakers craving winter sun with new flights to the Portuguese island of Madeira and an expansion of its existing programme to Sharm el Sheikh in Egypt.
