In connection with marketing I can’t decide if the problems being experienced by the train companies from the North East to London are helpful to the Airport and should be exploited or not.

It’s well published that Virgin/Stagecoach are pulling out of the east coast franchise 2 years early. They used to advertise it as much more convenient than flying. GNER previously went bust while running the line.

Can’t the airport attract another operator to a London airport (STN or LGW) to
or are they too busy on the sun routes mentioned above or can no one make any money taking people from the NE to the capital????
