NEWCASTLE - 8

[SWBKCB]

Even Bristol has Berlin & Copenhagen (both destinations, which would do well from Newcastle).

Even though they've been tried and dropped from NCL before - amazing, really, how EZY have managed to get so big!

Even though they've been tried and dropped from NCL before

You must have a better memory than me, no problem with Copenhagen, but Berlin eludes me, was it a Loco product, how long did it last & was it direct ??

[Travel Agent]

Berlin was Easyjet for a good two or three years not long after they started if memory serves

[SWBKCB]

EZY have done both CPH (along with others including BA and SAS) and SXF

Can't remember exactly when SXF was dropped - although I do know my son was booked on it and got re-directed to LPL (come to think of it, I was booked BA NCL-CPH when they dropped that...)

[Jamesair]

CPN has come and gone many, many times...the most optimistic operator was SAS who did 3 x daily on the route for a period, I think carrying over 3,500 pax monthly. I think Jet 2 had a go once.

I would like to see CPN and Berlin return though. In better times, good business and short break destinations.

Just seen two planes have landed from Paphos into NCL.

First was supposedly Glasgow bound - any reason why? EX158 and LS516.

[CabinCrewe]

The GLA Paphos flight albeit late has arrived.... in GLA.

[SWBKCB]

Yes - but it landed in Newcastle first then departed onwards to GLA as EXS158A, so the question remains...

Shortage of fuel at Scottish Airports - widely reported everywhere!!
Plenty of fuel at Newcastle!

[GrahamK]

September provisional stats:

Gatwick -17%
Heathrow -3%
Brussels -12%
Paris CDG +14%
Dusseldorf FLAT
Dublin +13%
Amsterdam +4%
Dubai +14%

[HH6702]

Are those figures compared to sept 2011 or aug 2012?

[GrahamK]

Compared to September 11th.

October will be interesting given the number of 77L flights there have been. Any idea when normal service resumes on the 77W?

[heslop2006]

Don't know if I'm behind on times but FlyBe are showing Paris CDG in their list of their online timetable from NCL starting April 2013 listed...

Other destinations listed were Aberdeen, Belfast, Birmingham, Bergen, Exeter, Jersey, Gatwick and Southampton which I believe are all routes from NCL now...?

Is CDG new? Or have I missed something ...

[BAladdy]

BE's CDG is a codeshare with AF. Flights operated by Cityjet on behalf of AF.

[heslop2006]

thanks BAladdy

All of the above flights you have posted are operated by Thomson. Nothing to do with Lowcostholidays and Air Explore / Small Planet.

Something afoot on re-financing, or just formulating responses to the recent court case shambles?
