This news was announce to crews at ncl yesterday. I've seen the memo
Also states we are to get 2 of the 4 being delivered by may
Cardiff is to loose its A321 TCX based machine to a leased A321 from another company.
Other airbus aircraft are moving out of gatwick and being replaced by 757 so the same type at each of the bases.
This should also help with delays as the can move the aircraft up if all the same type

It was stated in the memo that Cardiff crew would be sent to other bases where type was going.
I'm guessing people at ncl will be offered to move to gatwick to continue flying the 757 or being retrained on the A321
Where do you find out the seat plans for the flights?
I will be seeing one of the pilots tomorrow night so will try and fin out more but he said he will be retrained around Easter time

Ncl regains place in top 10 uk airports
In the year to June 2012 Newcastle re-enters the top 10 UK airports at No.10 replacing Liverpool.
This should make the airport more attractive to prospective new operators and for new routes.

Yes I do, even more so if the annual pax figure can reach 5m which is a critical figure to attract new routes.

I must say 5 million is way off for us, also we have lost allot of capacity from BY and MT now considering the 757 to 738 drop and now the lesser but still a bit of a dent 757 to A321 what we need is an increase in capacity through new aircraft be it Jet2 or Thomson as these are the routes that get the airport into the 5M figures and then attract further long haul prospects.

Unsure what the delay is, but I heard very recently that EZY are to operate NCL-LGW though no idea as to frequency.
TFS was winter only and no sign Easyjet taking over the Gatwick route.

The state of the economy is bad in the North East but it is also home to some of the most successful companies in the UK. Sage and Nissan to name a couple. As the economy improves so will employment in the large and smaller companies that exist in the area. Although the size of public sector employment in the area continues to be a problem as cutbacks continue.

The 5m figure places the airport in a different category as does the top 10 rating, which raises the airports profile.

That would indeed be good news, I hope we get confirmation soon for a smooth transition from Flybe, otherwise thats another 7K + loss of monthly pax.
