Talks of 4 weekly 757 or a 3 weekly with the 767
Heard the 767 rumour for a few weeks now
It's still a guessing game but looks like United will try again
3/4 times weekly would make the service totally unattractive for front end passengers; to be frank, 5 isn't a great deal of good either. Without the benefit of premium class passengers it wouldn't be possible to offer decent fares in cattle class.
A proper trial would be daily, between May / October, which ought to attract more of the business PAX, which I'm sure do exist in the Northeast of England. That is what NCL should be striving for.
