Emirates will go 2x Daily in the near future because they grow routes. EK35/6 would of been history long time ago had they been as impatient as UA and we should be greatful of it, It will always be the jewel in Newcastle's crown. The fact is a 757 going west from here will not work with higher fares because people will just not use it and it can carry next to no exports compared to the huge 77W going east. The only carrier that would make money out of a 757 westbound service would be Jet2 but its not their market other than the christmas spin offs.
