Monarch Airlines (UK) received it's first Boeing 737-800 (MSN 40874/3316 G-ZBAV), expected to be mostly operated out of Birmingham this summer. The ex-Pegasus Airlines aircraft was built in mid 2010, and has operated with Pegasus since new. Monarch currently operates an all Airbus A320/A321 fleet (10 A320s and 25 A321s). However, Monarch will be rolling over this fleet from 2018 onwards with an order of 30 Boeing 737 MAX 8s. This is a full circle for Monarch, having started jet operations with used Boeing 720s, and subsequently a variety of new and used 737-200s, 737-300s and new 757s. The airline is also the only UK commercial airline to have not changed it's name (or merged or been taken over) since commencing service on April 5th, 1968.
