Re a Newcastle-Norwich flight, having spent 6h40m driving from Norwich to Newcastle yesterday, I'd appreciate one. Air Anglia used to do it in the 1970s en route to Aberdeen.

I can imagine that Madrid could be a possibility in the next few years when the BA/Iberia merger is complete. I know BA have talked about possible expansion at Madrid, and can imagine a subsidary of BA or IB might give it a shot from a few UK regional airports.
Although maybe not, if it was going to detract customers away from LHR. But I would say its more likely than JFK or Lisbon.
Re: Jet2 to GVA, perhaps its a flight to cater for Jet2's own holdiay company? With seats availiable to the public as well?

Jet2 -GVA
Can't really understand this. The bulk of the self catering accommodation in the French alps and western switzerland is let on a fixed seven day cycle commencing on Saturdays (exception being the quiet periods when J2 aren't operating the service anyway). It's also a bit late in the year to be starting sales of a once per week ski-flight - a large proportion of skiers taking a week will already have made arrangements.

Interesting comment. I can't help but feel that with EDI/NCL flights being announced at the same time there must be some charter seat deal either with Jet2 Holidays or some other operator involved, with public seat sales being the icing on the cake. I could be wrong of course.
I can't find details of skiing holidays on the Jet2 Holidays website yet.

Looking at the July Pax figures some routes continue to impress.
Dubai up 16% to 15,169
Brussels up 100% to 3233
Dusseldorf up 37% to 4120 (maybe another frequency needed)
Copenhagen up 17% to 2114 (double daily 2011?)
Amsterdam up 2% to 22,548
Murcia up 10% to 12,555
Limoge up 40% to 538
Split up 42% to 1314 (maybe dropping it next year needs re-investigating)
Tenerife has built to 5809 this month
Malta steady growth now 2404
Dalaman 3,642 (new route)
Monastir 1060 (new route)
Sharm-el-Sheik (new route) 2136
Domestic routes remain very mixed
Aberdeen up 45% to 2286
IOM up 12% to 500 (Manx 2 doing ok)
Newquay/Plymouth, former shows 10% increase at 1142 while the latter shows 1% increase to 1900 (well done Air Southwest)
Belfast City figures not released yet...could be up though.
Guernsey gets off to a 488 start.
All other domestics show falls.

I am guessing the EDI-NCL sector is more operational as it will operate using a EDI based a/c and crew from FEB 20th.

The pax figures are for scheduled flights only. Charter pax are shown separately on the CAA website.
CABIN CREWE
The figures show an average of 131 pax per flight, divided by the a/c pax capacity gives the load factor....not really home calculations!

CabinCrewe, no doubt that it the end of the day it all comes down to how much pax are paying for the flights, and at the end of the day, only the airline knows that.
Re: The Emirates figures...bumped up due to the one off 77W flight, still good numbers though.

I *think* there was an issue with one of the engines, but will investigate further.
You need not worry though, as it isnt a regular event so chances are your flight will be quite uneventful.

One bit of good news: NCL moved up the airport rankings from No.13 to No. 11 as per pax figures for the first half of the year.
