New Campaign for Newcastle Airport running until March 2018:
"That's why I fly from Newcastle"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxyT...ature=youtu.be
Airport Launches Brand New Campaign:
https://www.newcastleairport.com/art...d-new-campaign
Northern England is Great campaign aimed at United's New York route could be re-made to attract global visitors to the region:
https://www.newcastlegateshead.com/e...nd-countryside
Maybe the "Your Airport" sub tag line should be replaced with something that also attracts in bound visitors too? - Example: Start your Discovery/Adventure Here could serve both purposes whether it mean start your holiday y flying from Newcastle, or start your Holiday/Adventure/Discovery of our region when you land at Newcastle!
or "Newcastle Airport - City, Coast & Country" - I'm sure Marketing people can come up with something snappy on this theme.
"Your Airport" is too narrow in aiming at local population for outbound travel. - Thoughts!

One size doesn't fit all - this campaign is specifically aimed at expanding the local customer base. Initiatives such as the work with VisitBritain etc on the Great Exhibition of the North are aimed at inbound traffic
On a more positive note, Super Breaks are doing a couple of Iceland and Montenegro flights next winter.

Air France AF1058 is being operated this morning by Air Explore 737-800 OM-JEX branded as TUI - ETA 10.44
AF1158 this afternoon's flight is cancelled, and so is tomorrow's early departure which would have been operated by this aircraft.

GLA is currently closed due to snow. EK DXB-GLA appears to be diverting to NCL.So there could be two Emirates 777s on the deck in Newcastle very soon, if that sort of thing interests anyone.

Probably the right size aircraft for the route, CRJ would probably be more comfortable if they still had them. Hopefully they’ll account for the longer flight times, the Q400s we’ve been having at present are still on jet time tables and I don’t think I’ve seen one on time yet.

re Dusseldorf....using CAA pax figures and number of flights during each month each flight would have carried the following average number of pax.
...July...96
...Aug...86
...Sept...86
...Oct...69
...Nov...49
with a max capacity for the Q400 at 86, the case for double daily could be made (which, of course offers business men the choice of a day return trip)

I wouldn't read too much into these people leaving.
They have all done well over the last few years.
They have brought united and Ryanair to Ncl.
Fair enough we have lost united.
Maybe it is the right time for these jobs to be covered by someone new with a few fresh ideas on how to move things forward.
Maybe a look at how long haul can be delivered from NCL.
Sounds like they hoping to have links again so maybe a look at a LCC going forward?
Maybe get the tour operators together to share flights to ncl places so not the risk of a single operator.
Weekly flights or twice weekly to new Caribbean routes etc.
Could be an interesting couple of years and maybe a new focus on city breaks with Ryanair and jet2
