Monarch Airlines Review of Flight Only Reservations
- Seat allocations done at check-in (but seats can be pre-booked at an extra cost).
- Carry-on only included (10kg). All additional luggage at an extra cost.
- Avoid credit card charges by paying with a debit card or PayPal.
- Hot and cold meals that can be pre-booked or purchased on-board.
Pricing for Gatwick to Bodrum Flight Example:
For the Gatwick Bodrum Flight example (shown) I went through an example of booking a Flight Only, then added a bag (22.99) and choose my seats on the outbound and inbound (6.49 each way).
The costs mount up, so it’s cheaper to select an Essential Pack that includes the seats and a bag.
Monarch Airlines Review of Essentials & Extras Pack Reservations
Monarch gives you two additional options when making your flight reservations.
Taking all the hassle out of booking a low cost flight, Monarch gives you the price including seats and bags up front.
- Select your choice on the flight availability page and your items will automatically be added to your itinerary.
- Progress through the booking path, adding any additional items you may need (the items in your pack will already be selected)
- Choose where you wish to sit on the plane using their interactive seat map and complete your booking!
