How many aircraft are based at Newcastle this winter? There appears to be huge gaps in the timetable where planes are sat doing nothing for many hours. For example today one aircraft comes in from Belfast at 0920 and another from Bristol at 0950 but the next EZY departure isn't until 1525 to Alicante. It also appears that Paris is stopping in November but the new replacement Amsterdam route isn't starting until December.

I know EZY have just announced Jersey from NCL but what is the long term future for EZY at Newcastle? Having planes sat around for nearly 6 hours per day surely isn't good. Are there any more routes planned?
