NEWCASTLE - 8
Subsidising BFS-EWR was an attempt to skew business in the island of Ireland, which the Irish government would be understandably miffed about and within the EU, where we reside, is illegal.
I agree with EKWNCL - pigs will fly (unaided) before HMG does anything whatsoever to assist growth of direct flights to overseas destinations from NCL, or anywehre away from London.
Airliner deliveries at Newcastle - the Gill Air fleet, plenty of Dash-8's in the past and probably a few other smaller odds and sods, and then this one...

Last time I was there, Dublin and Cork were listed as 'UK' destinations next to the 'domestic' arrivals area.
Not saying that this affects where they show up on the figures, just that the management of NCL should have a bit more knowledge of their destinations. And maybe a bit of common sense.

Yep, not disputing that RoI arrivals should go through the same arrivals gate as UK arrivals due to the Common Travel Area. Just think it should be labelled as 'UK & RoI arrivals' like it is at Heathrow etc. I spotted it as I was picking someone up from Cork (must have been a few years ago, now I think about it, as they were on Jet2) and I walked straight past the 'UK arrivals' and went to International arrivals. Only when I finally found them loitering at domestic arrivals did I see that Cork was on the list of 'UK' airports (it was a permanent list, not the arrivals board)
To explain my pedantry , I'm a primary school teacher and we teach them at age 6 the difference between England, Great Britain, the UK, the British Isles etc.
