When should the A330 flights be loaded? Apart from MAN and LBA will any other UK bases get a look in? NCL should be in the pipeline to cover the heamorrhaging of seats recently.

They're the same thing? Surely the number of seats you have available equals the number of passengers you can carry.
If NCL warranted the capacity then we'd still have the 757 and other bases would get the 737's instead.

I suppose but it's a different kettle of fish with TOM and TCX, where the bulk loss is coming from. LS has never had problems filling the 752's before, it's confusing as to why they are leaving

It may be that NCL is now 'right sized' for the market even if that does mean a big loss of seats.
I just think if the 757 really was needed then they'd have swapped the 737's to another base and kept them at NCL - in swapping to 737's they may have improved yield and profitability which, at the end of the day, all sensible airlines are focused on.

The 752s moved the the chashcow centre we know as MAN and then the other went to LBA. Jet2 are positioning 3 738s at NCL so it's not as if we are hard done by, infect it's probably th same amount of seats.
The 757s are getting old, and it pains me to say but they are on the way out. Basing most of them at 2 bases increases reliability for the ageing fleet.

Sadly -700s may be too expensive for them, a lot of young _
-700s have been scrapped as they are worth more parted than people are willing g to pay for them as a whole flyable aircraft.
