Newcastle-9

[N707ZS]

An expensive afternoon then, wonder if the air show traffic will be sent South next year.

The CAA has released the June airport statistics this morning

[jensdad]

What's the crack, then? Just read that Belfast Intl. is up 10.6%, be interesting to see what Newcastle are doing...

[VickersVicount]

interesting to see EDI now carrying more with EK to DXB than NCL. GLA with A380 showing growth again

Interesting to see that all Flybe routes are down, and that the only increases in domestic are in the two EasyJet routes.

[VickersVicount]

Im never convinced you can make too much of huge perceived increases on the pseudo- Charter flights as it just takes a slight change season start date or extra weekly rotation to make year on year comparison inaccurate. So, I wouldn't say a huge surge in Santorini is the future...or a huge decrease in Thessalonnika is the end of the world.
AMS, DXB, DUB are the main benchmarks

[Jamesair]

I think you can add Paris to that list

[Jamesair]

Superbreak has ceased operations. Newcastle has only one holiday affected....a mini-break to Iceland departing in February 2020 using Titan Airways.

[HH6702]

Shame about superbreaks

[Jamesair]

New Timetables are now on the airport website covering Winter 19/20 and a second one for Summer 20

[VickersVicount]

Wonder who would actually look at them/use them?

[SWBKCB]

Well, it will cost rock all for the Airport to produce and it's handy to have everything available in one place. Helps get the old grey cells turning!

[Matt4]

Well I think they have made a mistake on the flight guide for winter because they are saying the Air France is only operating 1 flight a day and I’ve just checked and they are operating the normal 3 flights but they are all going to be operated by HOP it seems

[GrahamK]

More Ryanair routes to be lost shortly?

[NorthEasterner]

Looks like FR TFS base closing and Girona base too.

Faro too, unless FR decide to open a base st NCL then that's a fair amount of tax continuing to be lost

[Jamesair]

Not looking good unless FR decides the routes are profitable enough to justify either setting up a base at NCL or moving to operating "W" flights to those destinations.

Neither of which are very likely IMO
