Been a while since NYC reared it's ugly head

Anyway, in th current environment, with APD, high fuel prices, nobody in their right mind is going to start NCL-NYC flights. It'll be at least 5 years before anyone even considers it, and even thats a long shot.
If the airport needs any routes, it should be looking at the likes of FRA,MUC and CPH, maybe getting BD ER4s ala the BRU route.

Anyhow, September provisional stats:

Gatwick +7%
Heathrow -6%
Brussels + 33%
Paris CDG -4% <--- When do CityJet start on this route?
Dusseldorf +4%
Dublin +6%
Amsterdam +9%
Dubai +2% as already said (84.2% loads based on an A332HD operating all month - back full, and front empty?)
