Is this fairly normal do we know?
no insider knowledge but in the summer each aircraft seems to spend 2-3 months at NCL, so my guess is it will change soon! Reasons for changing seem to be varied. But as the aircraft usually just continues to fly from the next ‘base’ I wondered if it was a requirement by either the airliner or regulator for a different engineering team To take a look at it after it had been away from a main base for a while.
