I believe NCL-JER was x4 weekly during 2016, which I'm sure was 3 A320's and 1 A319 in peak summer, this year it's x3 weekly A319. The A320 always did the Saturday flight in the past but that seems to have changed.

Newcastle to Jersey
Hi EK77WNCL 
Easyjet rarely use the A320 on the Jersey route from anywhere on their network. It has always been an A319 when I have travelled on the Saturday flight certainly. The only time they tend to draft an A320 in, is during periods of disruption, when multiple Gatwick flights for example, get consolidated. The A319 is a perfect fit for this type of market.

I was there! In the smoking area and I saw a police car driving on the apron, then as I left, a police officer and a bloke in a suit (assuming some kind of high up security person) came running up the stairs from gate 31 and said "here I'll check the smoking area!
Anyway I proceed down to my gate, just as I get to the bottom of the escalator passing the lounge, they come running down shouting "along here leg it"
Nice little bit of entertainment... I then heard the easyjet girls (who were taking much interest in proceedings after the blokes ran past) talking about a group of drunks or something. Whether this was a different event or something that had just happened, I don't know. Rather amusing nonetheless.
Ah, sorry about that, I just remember looking on the EZY website and seeing an A320 seat map scheduled for the Saturday rotations, and multiple weekly rotations Summer 2016. The increase to x4 weekly for S17 must have been a recent a quiet addition! Good new though.
Still appears as if many routes lose frequency through July and August though, oddly enough.

Good to see the new Polish routes all holding up well and Brussels recovering from its sharp downturn. Copenhagen doing well and Dusseldorf steadily rising and Barcelona rising nicely. Dublin always surprises me with double figure increases most months.
Dubai with its 5% fall and the others must be set against Easter falling in March last year.
Exeter and Bristol figures are not yet available.
