Monarch's Airbus A320, registered G-ZBAR, was pictured taking off from its former home at Leeds Bradford Airport today.
As the plane became airborne, the pilot performed a 'wing wave' manoeuvre in a farewell gesture.
The aircraft was bound for Shannon in Ireland. The majority of Monarch's 35-strong fleet are likely to be leased or sold to other airlines.
Around 60 jobs at Leeds Bradford Airport were lost after the Monarch brand entered administration.
