I'm sure numbers will come up eventually as the dust settles, but Jan-April doesn't make for good reading at all :/
When did GLA go 2 daily?
HH6702, yes, it would however it wouldn't free up a 777 at the right time of day, we'd need it for the night shift (arr NCL around 19:00 dep around 21:00) but it would more than likely be the midday GLA flight that went A380... Although Birmingham has shown that perhaps the evening flight might be the more popular
I'd also hesitantly say that NCL would be better off with a 77L than a 77W, sorry to thread drift!
Your post suggests that the figures have been poor, which is far from the case, so I don't really understand what you mean in your post.
Like the above poster said, there have been minor decreases (a few % at most) which is very much likely due to EY entering the market last year.
GLA went twice daily in June 2012.
