All UK airports to DXB were down - due to the way Easter fell? If you add in the average 5% drop since the EDI started, it's in line with the others.

HEATHROW -18.40
BIRMINGHAM -6.96
GLASGOW -6.26

Fridays FAO-NCL is scheduled on the A320 which is G-UZHO (NEO) at the moment, good chance that will be bringing you home Friday but check Friday morning.

Just curious, the stats show 401 freight/mail flights, so over 10 a day. Presumably this must be all flights carrying any freight or mail, rather than dedicated flights (of which there is only the FedEx and the odd charter?)

FRA would be a big plus for NCL. Star Alliance seemingly has Central Europe sewn up and the loss of the Brussels Airlines codeshare is not helping NCL in this respect. In recent times I have had to go to LCY, MAN and EDI to get a flight to FRA and connect on to places not served by KLM, AF or BA. The DUS flight seems to do pretty well but the timings mean that despite 8 trips there in the past year, I have never used Eurowings.

I think NCL is more likely to see a route to Munich before Frankfurt...an earlier post said that slots had been requested for this year for a 6 x wkly service. With Loganair basing a second a/c in September I would expect to see the Oslo and Bergen services start. They are no doubt exploring other route options as they seem to want a bigger presence at NCL.
