At last there seems some stability returning to this route from this Sunday for a week, then from 3 March for the rest of the year.
It will be 5 daily Sun to Fri and I think 4 on Saturday.

Its still down from 6 daily as it has been for years but at least the times are similar each day. The missing flight is one of the two that operated within an hour of each other during the afternoon.
Generally seems to be larger aircraft being used on some rotations.

However the instability over this winter could have damaged the route (newcastle busiest route). Passenger nos I understand are down and regular customers are not happy with the messing about with schedules.

A bit of competition from the new FlyBe would be welcome.
