As the airport has way below national airport passenger growth at the moment and has been for a few years
Where should Newcastle be in terms of Passenger volumes, if growth had been in line with the national average, given your statement on previous post.
I know NCL is still well below the 2007 passenger volumes of nearly 6 million, despite gaining Emirates, United and LCCs.
Guess losses have been daily Braathens to SVG,OSL & BGO, Reduced charters, Used to have more than 1 operator to Orlando, Transat to Toronto, TCX to Goa (India).
Still, with the additions I'm surprised NCL has not restored volumes back to pre recession levels, if not surpassed and grown much further given Emirates etc...
