Gsm Noc-bos/jfk
NOC-BOS/JFK did well because two US based tour operators took hard blocks on all the flights, taking on 40-50% of the inventory depending on the month. Plus as GSM pulled the plug on the LPL JFK and GLA BOS non-stops due to underperformance they moved passengers to the through flights via NOC which took up even more space. Nevertheless, NOC did perform well overall and has a future, just hopefully with a more responsible airline.
The people at IWA Knock did a superb job marketing it as well and it was disheartening to see how poorly GSM served the route. Numerous and lengthy delays, no accurate flight information, and GSM's famously disgraceful take or leave it customer service mentality all contributed to an overall less than satisfactory experience.
Nevertheless, NOC did perform well overall and has a future with the right aircraft on several TATL routes, just hopefully with a more responsible airline.
