Newcastle-9
Change of subject.. Newcastle have been crying out for many,many years for some decent hangerage .
With Jet 2 and to some extent,Easy,BA and Ryanair increasing flights..does anyone think..hangarage may be on the agenda for increased revenue?Not to mention the increase in Executive movements?
Speculate to accumulate?

I wouldn’t be all that sure on that, I have it on good authority that the 787-9 will struggle for performance ex NCL.

Emirates can't expand the current flight much more they have a lot of market share.
Having an evening flight will improve the loads and open up better connection times to Asia which people from the northeast use KLM /BA etc due to them offering better deals for connections.
It is on the cards just a case of when

Under the terms of the recent EK order for Boeing 787-10 it also mentions that some could be changed to the Boeing 787-9 if the airline decides to do so.
You state 'EKs would be the even longer again 78-10'
I don't think that any take off performance using the runway at NCL is based around the length of the aircraft more to do with MTOW.

Great news, just proves the demand is still there. Here's hoping if/when 2018 flights get released, Jet2 see this potential and add even more flights
canberra97 high ground on the 07 end has been a problem in the past. Think a Kuwait 747 once got stuck due to this. My travel A320s used to re-fuel at DTVA for the same reason.
Surely an A320 can use the runway at NCL without the need to take a fuel stop!
If it was Man or Birmingham I could understand, but DTVA.

I'm pretty sure it was only My Travel who couldn't make it all the way to the Canaries from Newcastle in certain wind conditions; I think it had something to do with the higher ground on the 25 climb out. After a couple of years of this I believe MYT amended their SOP and the refuel requirement disappeared overnight.
I'm happy to be corrected.

I can understand why an older generation A320 couldn't make the canaries direct out of NCL on 25. I remember about 10 years ago, Thomas Cook and Balkans would request 07 departures where applicable. Even as recently as 5 years ago I remember a Larnaca departure on a TCX A320 requesting 07, against the flow of departures.
Newer generation A32x's can make it easily... Look at EZY to TFS with 186 pax and sharklets
Incremental PIP's have made the A320 a much more competitive airframe than it was.
MYT's A320/A321's were first generation, with much reduced takeoff performance/range
Amazing to think that the A321LR can probably make East Coast US and Middle East, non stop from NCL, whereas 1st gen couldn't make the canaries

The early AIH, that's where it went back to, a320s were relatively old aircraft when we took them. Off 25 on a low pressure day there was not the performance to make the Canaries or Paphos. Going to Teeside meant only one climb to altitude so I believe greater efficiency. Also Teeside was a summer base at that stage.
As for performance off 25 Dan Air's 737 whether 200 or cfm were no better. AIH's MD 83's were of course even worse. Happy days.
