Quoted freight figures for NCL by HL.
Just shows how out of touch the DTV management is.

NCL is doing more than 10,000T of Air freight these days, excluding mail. HL might be in the ballpark re the amount of FLOWN airfreight out of NCL excluding the new volumes carried by EK but is way out on the total.

The NCL freight centre handles more trucks than planes; it has done for years and will continue to do so. Most of this is destined for long haul operators ex the larger hubs of LHR, LGW and MAN.

Paarmo, I do like your optimism but how many airports, with plenty of capacity, are nearer the Thames Valley than DTV? Think DTV will be a long, long, long way down anyones list of potential bases if they get pushed away from the London Airports.
