Good news - I've already started a thread about the possible spectators gallery in the "Spectators Gallery" forum!

What's your thoughts ?
Well done Newcastle! Is the airport run by Germans?

Seriously, shame BHX won't consider doing similar with the upper floors of the old terminal - and the control tower that sits on top.

There is a similar set up at BHX, I've been in it, but it was opened specially for the Biman DC10 and you aren't normally allowed in there... Unless they leave the door unlocked and you know the way in

Joking aside don't try and break in...

Turkish airlines

One to watch out for as Newcastle airport confirms that talks are on going with Turkish airlines to start flights from ncl

Also more routes from germanwings (euro wings)

You'd be surprised if they weren't, but interesting to see names being named

Newcastle Airport targets Cumbrian flyers

Mr Laws accepts that access is the main bugbear for passengers from Cumbria, particularly by public transport, although a new access road from the A69, to open in 2019, should improve the journey for motorists.
Not heard about an A69 link road before - anybody know any more? 2019 just round the corner in new road terms?

Last I heard it was to be a link road from Throckley to the North Brunton / Great Park area of the A1, I'm sure it was in the Chronicle a few years back, but heard nothing since.

I wish the Metro would put on an earlier train to get people there for the 6am flight check-ins, ie arrive about 4.30am.

No DUS showing for today

No Eurowngs flight to Dusseldorf today! (Would have been the A320 Tuesday service) Has this been pulled for some reason...lack of demand etc...?

edit: Not showing as being bookable for next Tuesday (2nd Feb) either.

Expanding

Apparently Dusseldorf Tuesday is back on the 9th of February, Would be Great for Turkish to come here, Apparently the Airport wants Ryanair to Base some Planes here to, Would be Good to get more German Routes to

I really feel like EZY are the people to do EU city routes for us, they perform well on BCN, GVA and NCE and on BRS and BFS. I see no reason they couldn't make MXP, MUC, SXF, VCE, MAD etc. and many more work

I really hope NCL gets some of this recent UK growth it deserves

Good news from AF/KL today, over 500,000 pax for 2015 is good going!

Air France-KLM makes Newcastle Airport vow after passenger success (From The Northern Echo)

Wondering if frequency or capacity increases could be in the pipeline?

It would be nice to have AF mainline. Those CityJet 146s are ghastly things inside. Maybe when the Sukhois arrive it will be better. They won't be 6 seats wide.

Eurowings just diverted to Manchester. There must be some nasty weather over the airfield at the minute.

Emirates EK35 diverted to TZX Turkey

This morning's flight from Dubai has been diverted to TZX Trabzon Airport (East Black Sea region of Turkey) as per FR24
Seems like more than a medical emergency landing.
Newcastle Airport Arrivals is showing an esteimated Provisional Arrival time of 2050 this evening and a delayed Departure time of 2230. Check in has also been delayed from this morning until 1830 this evening.
