NEWCASTLE - 8

Easyjet

How about a 4th based aircraft also that may also help with new routes and fill the gaps

[Sam Chipperfield]

Easyjet

Easyjet won't do another based Aircraft, If they do another route i think the Aircraft will come from the Destination and Return there and then back to Bristol, Luton or wherever it would come from, Would like to see them do a New Route but can't see it

[CentreFix25]

I was going to say, I've not seen any new routes announced. Is this all pie in the sky stuff again?

I was going to say, I've not seen any new routes announced. Is this all pie in the sky stuff again?

It was late April last year that EZY announced a new route (replacing CDG with AMS), so just speculation that they will do the same this year

Move along, nothing to see here...

[Jamesair]

The 18th April Thomson press release shows new routes from various airports but NONE from Newcastle.

[10 DME ARC]

Chill out every one......

In this present climate new routes don't alway's mean 'new' customers!! In the past we have seen same customer spreading between routes meaning no one win's! The airport is doing a good job of keeping what we have got and it's priority is getting the likes of BRU back.
If you can think of a route, think who will loose out?? E.g. FRA great route to have but would kill DUS and KLM, BA, EK and AF would all take a knock!! That's why the likes of NYC appeal, yes some knock to hub carriers BUT a big gain from pax's road/train to MCT/LHR/EDI/GLA! Plus how many west bound cities become one stop from NCL just as EK have done east bound!!

[HH6702]

FRA/DUS

At the minute LH are killing the DUS flights with it becoming daily instead of twice daily!!

Rumours were that the reason for the reduction on DUS route was that FRA was going to start with twice daily flights and people would swap to the FRA as better connections??

Looks like its all rubbish... The quicker DUS route goes back to twice daily the better

Kefalonia - Summer 2014

Looks like TOM is to add there own aircraft from ncl for 2014 on a Wednesday instead of using TCX on a Sunday

Good news for ncl

Doesn't look like a 4th based aircraft just a re shuffle of the times and routes

[heslop2006]

According to their preview brochure Thomson have Saturday 14:25 to Palma with JetairFly

Also in their faraway shores brochure, NCL has the outbound to Cancun via MAN until 15th July, then 22nd July - 21st October to Cancun has the blue highlight meaning its the 787 and it'll be direct without going via MAN

Also 21st July - 20th October flights to Orlando are also blue highlighted so they'll also be the 787

Also posted on Durham Tess Valley thread (now becoming a Joke!)..

Is it not time we faced reality with regard to Teeside Airport (Darlington/ DTV.... etc...) As a Region we need to support firstly a much improved surface transport link to Newcastle International Airport. O.K.... Controversial to some! .... But in reality the only way the NORTH EAST as a region can attract new routes, expand frequency of existing routes , and promote the North East as a truly viable central business and leisure destination. --- I know there will be the usual defendants of keeping a civilian airport in Teeside .... but a United Region with an emphasis on Newcastle Airport with fast, convenient and comfortable links to Teeside would, I feel, promote more and better frequent air links to ALL.....

Could somebody translate?
