Some of the CDG rotations are still operatng.
On a related note however, it will be interesting to see what happens with the route now that CityJet have been sold. Will they remain on the route, or will we see the entry of AF Hop with Brit Air CR7s again?

Ok - I'll make it simpler. There are no plans for the Thomson's 787's to visit Newcastle on the current flights they are undertaking prior to service entry.
No doubt we'll see them eventually on long haul IT's. What is all the fuss about?

SAS 737-700 inbound from Alesund. Gussing this is athletics related too? Also is this the first time a 737-700 with winglets has appeared at NCL?

LHR
Re the statistics a few posts back from Jamesair. They are very positive except for the LHR service that had one rotation cancelled nearly every day in May.
Unfortunatley the LHR service will experience more cancellations later this year some weeks in Nov, Dec, Jan,and March I believe. Mainly one rotation per day but with "2 daily rotations" being cut for a period of 3 wks in March. Customers are being notified now of the situation. They can re book, have a refund or accept the changes in most cases which involves an earlier flight from NCL resulting in an extra 2hrs or so on to the connection times at LHR.
So its likely that this will result in a negative effect on passenger numbers and could cancel out much of any growth.
I dont believe its due to a lack of passengers as I understand average LF is in the high eighties and yields are good, however I have heard its because of a shortage of aircraft???? anyone know why.
Quite worrying trend is this not NCLs busiest route. The first flight from LHR of the day and the 09.20ish from NCL to LHR are amongst those cancelled on some periods. Surely these are busy flights and important for connections. Not good if the first flight arrives from LHR at about 11 am.
