All the figures are percentage increases against June 2011. Interestingly, in most cases the figures on IT operations only showed a fall.
I realise that Jet 2 figures would include Jet 2 Holidays and Olympic Holidays so skewing the figures a bit, but healthy nevertheless.

Busiest airports in the United Kingdom by total passenger traffic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Interesting figures from 2007 to Present. Newcastle overtaken by East Midlands & Liverpool - Other Airports have seen some recent growth!

Interesting to see that only 2 of the top 16 are not showing growth and Newcastle is one of them. A post further up the thread says the rolling 12 months to June passenger figures are down 1.3%.
Can this solely be blamed on the economy, is the North East doing significantly worse than the rest of the UK or are there any other contributing factors.
I note that in this time Leeds/Bradford has managed to attract Ryanair and Monarch into basing aircraft at the home of Jet2.

Here are some figures for year ending 2009/2010 and 2011
2009 2010 2011
Domestic pax 1,414,367 1,253,780 1,184,903
International 1,869,550 1,876,017 1,911,743
IT 1,304,377 1,221,094 1,256,735
The continuing decline in Domestic pax, the loss of STN certainly didn't help. IT pax declined in 2010 and started to recover in 2011. The star performer is International routes which are consistently increasing pax numbers each year.
Various factors could be mentioned, loss of IT tour operators, EZY cutting a/c from 5 to 3 and using smaller aircraft, partly offset by Jet increasing based a/c.
Failure to attract new operators,
statistics are taken from the airport website.

Thomson summer 2013
Tflyer
Thomsons timetable is shown 4 based aircraft on some days.
Heard that ncl is to be all 737-800 from may 2013 so maybe to pick up the diffence in seats and nothing to do with tcx!
Hopefully may get a new route or two!!

I've just gone through the timetable for S13 & I only see 3 based aircraft everyday apart from Mon & Tues where the 763 comes in for the SFB & CUN.
That's right TOM will be an all 738 base from May 1st 2013 as all flight deck at NCL go from the 756 go over to 737.

TOM Summer 2013
Looking through the timetable, there are extra flights on those days but these are operated by TCX (Skiathos, Bourgas, Kefalonia etc.) and Jet2 (Dalaman) and can only see the need for 3 x TOM aircraft (all to be B738) - excluding the Florida/Mexico flights with a B763 on Monday & Tuesdays.

Looks like LH are reducing DUS to 1 x Daily during th winter, although all flights are scheduled to be opped by the CR9. The morning flight seems to have been dropped.
Surprising considering the huge growth on this route over the last year or so.

Where are the new routes? Other airports are overtaking Newcastle in terms of Passenger volumes and percentage growth. Shouldn't efforts be made now to attract a volume service from, for example Norwegian Air Shuttle considering their rapid expansion, or SAS to re-establish former Braathens routes to Oslo, Stavanger & Bergen. Also potential routes to Copenhagen & Stockholm. Other european services to Berlin, Frankfurt, Zurich & Milan. A regular direct service to New York seems to be fading, although interlining via Dublin (pre US Clearance with Aer Lingus) or Reykjavik (Icelandair) would benefit our region, with possible inward tourism incentrives. I know this is an ongoing topic of controversy but the Airport needs to grow, at least to maintain our position versus EMA, LPL, LBA etc.. but hopefully also to establish the region and city as a premier destination location and maximise the potential of services to and from our region.
