Newcastle to Scandanavia

At one time there were three ways of directly getting into Scandanavia..there was:
braathens: 737 to OSL
737 to SVG
british airways: DH8 to CPH

and now there is a once a day 50 seater max prop to SVG.....what is that all about...surely Newcastle needs and deserves more than that.

Braathens said that they wanted to restructure their routes and it had nothing to do with load factors

NAS said basically the same but felt that WF were tough competition

British Airways blamed low demand...can you remember the times of the route....who in there right mind would wait till about 12 before getting into CPH when there are services via AMS for half the price

So when are WF going to increase their services....how about an SAS jet operating OSL - NCL - BHX????? what do you think

The old DUS serivce.....i know LH are desperate to get a route from here going well.....they tried enough times....why not get a morning to DUS and back early or mid evening??

any other ideas for Newcastle
