The simple truth is that NCL serves a relatively small, relatively poor market.
While you may be right there about the market, the original post was intended to be positive and pro- NCL!

perhaps easyJet don’t understand the NCL market - Ssh or a turkish flight may have been a good idea. Hamburg perhaps not...

having spoken to a London based agency this week who contacted me about a job in Leeds and suggested it was only a 50min commute it reinforced my view that there is a lot of ignorance about the north east especially In London.

jet2 are following airtours to a certain extent doing really well in northern markets that they understand. It eventually started to go all wrong for Airtours as they moved further south....
