Interestingly I was up at NCL this afternoon for a Covid test, & looking across at the ramp, then partially visible were the tails of a number 4? Tui 738's & a 788?, presumed still in storage ?
It presented a very sad state of affairs, given that it's now Mid July & approaching peak season, so appears unlikely of any significant utilisation this year.
In looking at the NCL arrivals / departures board of late then very few Tui movements & in any event NCL isn't currently even currently a designated base.
With this amount of hardware lying about & no doubt dozens more elsewhere, another missing season, public confidence / optimism at a low. Then for someone who has been around NCL for many, many years, then it's all presents a surreal scene,
One just wonders how long this situation is sustainable before something gives.
One thing is for certain you can't run an airline on optimism for the future alone...
