The thing is they have a good base at Gatwick and Newcastle is now without a Gatwick route. If they added a Gatwick route to/from Newcastle then they could offer connecting flights to compete with BA (and others) very easily. Virgin doesn’t need a 3rd runway at Heathrow, and they certainly don’t need it to offer end to end services from Newcastle.
