Not bad news but I thought they might be a bit more adventurous... I'm sure this one will work for them, pretty hard not to really hahahaha
Could this lead to more? Maybe?

Yeah they had MME-ALC and MME-DUB definitely, maybe more
NCL has had Shannon, Rygge, Bergamo and Girona as far as I remember. Why were the routes (more specifically Bergamo and Girona) pulled because I was sure they were performing quite well. I don't remember Shannon I just know it happened, but Rygge.. I remember but don't know anything about how it was supposed to be performing

Good to see FR expanding, even if it is just a winter route. ALC is a bit predictable but the yields must be good - I was looking at Jet2 for a weekend early October for NCL-ALC and it was £460 return each - I paid less than this to go to JFK over Easter!

I could not justify paying that kind of money to travel to that kind of place with Jet2 , Some of their pricing is becoming greed motivated , I wish someone like Ryanair would come challenge them on a few more routes year round

United NCL - EWR
Interesting to note that rock bottom prices are being offered for round trips in second half of August as per airport website from £537 return. Would appear to be a wide choice of dates.
Great deal for the consumer given offer covers school holidays.
Unsure as to how well this bodes for a return next year though

mm, could just be promotional efforts but yes I agree I don't think I've ever seen such low fares for peak summer NYC. Similar dates from GLA etc are often over 1/3 more expensive despite better connection alternatives. Far to early to be passing judgement and was always going to be at the marginal end IMO. Interesting to see how it pans out.

United fares
The lowest I've seen has been £469!
I was looking only 2 days ago and most flights for August were shown £849rtn
August looking at the seat map isn't too bad there is some flights over 60% full.
Pick a date and have a look at Belfast snd Glasgow flights and you won't see much difference
Still very early to see how the route will fully do but I think from what I've heard
From people in the airport and reps they are happy with it so far.
Most of the dates that were £469 are now £679 if not more so.
Looking at the seat maps it seems that Friday's and Sunday's flights outbound need a push

15% is very generous. As a regular United / *A TA flyer, it's not something I've seen on a new as yet unstarted route. Very good offer not to be ignored- should fill up those empty cabins- even if it's just for the Mickey Mousers.
An extra a/c from Jet2 but no new destinations
