I understand the noon flight to LHR to be one of the busiest of the day mainly for connections ??.
So approx Six hrs gap between flights to LHR. 9 am ish to about 3 pm! dont know exact times.
Also if you fly into LHR early morning and you cant make the 7.25 ish departure to NCL you have to wait to about 2 pm for the next one. Not good especially if its Longhaul inbound.
Many years since the service was down to 5 per day for an entire season.
They are using the slots to increase frequency from LHR to other places in Europe and Worldwide . I think domestics LHR-ABZ is also affected. But not LHR-MAN, EDI or GLA.
So thats a reduction on the 2 most busy routes out of NCL----------LHR and AMS!
The flight times for Winter with BA from NCL-LHR are
BA1321 - 7.55
BA1325 - 9.35
BA1327- 12:05
BA1335 - 17:30
BA1337 - 19:35
The LHR to NCL timings are:
07:35
09:45
15:05
17:30
19:45
The flights from Newcastle are fairly spaced out, from Heathrow there is a 5 hour gap which isn’t ideal.
Is KLM increasing to 5 a day again in the summer or has it gone to 4 per day year round?
