The NCL-LGW certainly are high yielders and is predominantly designed for the business market hence the increased frequencies. Mondays and Fridays as well as the weekends tend to see loads in the 60s, which at this time of year is quite positive. Earlier departures from LGW and later departures from NCL would warrant those flights being operated by a crew from LGW as currently all Gatwick services from NCL are operated by local NCL based crews. As LGW is now a base for Flybe, it could be possible in the future allowing the NCL based aircraft and crew for new routes or expansion from the NE.
