The three of you have totally disregarded a vital word in my statement, I said in my opinion.
As for that dig, I am not an 'unrealist' as you put it.
I have an opinion and you are obviously entitled to yours but being called an dreamer/'unrealist' is insulting, have I called you any names no...
This was started by someone changing the wiki entry, I'm just giving my 2c.
I'm not saying a route is going to start, nor am I trying to justify such a route, however in my spotting community there's always been rumours and always will be, you guys need to deal with it and get off your pedestals.
I clearly understand the financial implications of starting new routes and the airlines are not attracted to NCL, I work in the airline industry. I understand that NCL has 40 movements a day whereas the likes of MAN has over 200.
Peace.
Thought the dreamers/'unrealists' had gone but it seems not.

Think people need to face up to the fact that NCL is no MAN/BHX/GLA

Hi
Air India good one but we are dreaming !!!
However think back that someone has updated the page late last year and put down United and delta to New York and AA to Washington and we all slated the group again that New York would never happen?
Is there a way to tell who has updated the page?
Could this person have some inside info like the United news?

What's the BFS schedule like now?
It could be going the way of the BRS route. Admittedly I use it less now due to the schedule but the flights I do go on are usually extremely busy. Gone are the days when I'd get on a half empty flight, particularly on the morning flights. Between U2 and BE reducing their offering it certainly suggests overcapacity in the market. I remember the day when there were half a dozen flights s day between the two operators.

NCL had 3963 air transport movements in May, an average of 128 per day
MAN had 14776 air transport movements in May, an average of 477 per day
As you work in the airline industry, let's hope that your job doesn't depend on making inaccurate assumptions... At least I suppose you were right in the statement that Manchester has over 200.....

Careful what you wish for, if they stay with more B788s then regional UK flying will be downsized, the B737MAX is also not ideal. The reason there's been an upsurge in B757s to the US is they're fully depreciated assets working hard at the end of their lives. Not sure BFS/NCL would see much ROI on a new capital intensive fleet of shiny Boeings.
Given Qatar and Etihad are killing each other over scraps in EDI while Emirates remains with the spoils at GLA, I think this might be er.....wrong.

Loads are getting better for the last week or so nearly full...
However it was a slow start but you can't expect business people to swap from BA and there points to our route just for a summer season....
Still hope it will return however I'm guessing the loads are currently around 60% for the whole season.
Up the front is selling now so fingers crossed it will return.
Doubt we will find out till mid September
