Catchment clearly doesn't apply so much when talking about inbound leisure travel, where the priority is how far you need to travel to the departure airport. If it wasn't nobody in their right mind would fly to Melbourne (MLB) to visit Orlando theme parks!

What's more, a case could be made for making the drive through the borders to reach a final destination ariund, say, Hexham part of a holiday.

Perhaps turning your question around, if EDI wasn't drawing otherwise NCL destined business, why doesn't NCL hoover up more inbound business. After all the Newcastle hinterland and Scottish Borders have so much commending them for an inbound tourist.
