Had noticed that NCL had disappeared from Winter 18 timetable.
Would be a shame however STK have been guilty of their usual games over the years. As soon as the route appears to look like becoming established, they chop and change the days/times and its back to square one.
Currently operating on days 1--4-6- it isn't particularly helpful for anyone - the previous schedule was much better (think it was 1-3-5-7) and always had a good stag crowd for the weekend flights.
I think STK shot themselves in the foot with the previous schedule in that is was too cheap. These days fares are considerably more expensive and if that combined with the more favourable schedule would see enough for the route to survive. Hard to believe that it wasn't long ago the route operated 3x weekly 733s from NCL as well as competition from RE at LBA and BMI at MME.
It also begs the question that if NCL was to be dropped, then is there really a need for a 3rd based ATR for winter 18? It wouldn't take a great deal to move the EDI/SNN till the afternoon and maybe run the 3rd rotation MANs on a W from DUB. Maybe plans for another ATR to SEN?
