Working with our customers

Monarch Airlines is the UK’s largest independent charter airline with more than 90 customers.

Transport relies upon fuel, and for aviation, kerosene will remain the optimum fuel choice for some years to come – yet with concerns over climate change, volatile oil prices and questions being asked about how long fossil fuels can last, the search is on for alternatives that may offer an environmental advantage as well as security of supply.

A month after receiving its first Airbus A380, Qantas put the aircraft into service on the Pacific route from Melbourne to Los Angeles on 20 October 2008.

Entry into service might still be four years away, but the sixth and latest member of the Trent series, the Trent XWB, is turning into a tangible reality as its development programme continues on plan.

With an established market share of over 50 per cent for powering modern wide-body aircraft, the Rolls-Royce Trent continues to dominate as the only family of engines serving this major sector of the aviation industry.
