BH Air

anyone know what’s going on with them
this year? Don’t seem to have operated their own aircraft into NCL yet (but stand to be corrected) with an MD82 operating tonight?

We had Cargo Air Boeing 737-400, LZ-CGY into Leeds yesterday evening operating the Balkan Holiday Air flight to Bourgas. Last week saw LZ-BHG visit in Saudi Gulf livery.

Only new routes mentioned have been the additional LM to fill the gap in the ABZ schedule, but they aren't a new airline.

Re BH - they are only flying one of their own A.320's at the moment, which has visited this year - clearly they think the money they are making on the leases outweighs the cost of the sub-charters (or they are p*ss poor planners!)

Folks on social media talking of Sichuan to Chengdu; Turkish to Istanbul; Qatar to, well, Qatar. Let's see. The second of those three seems the most likely to me.

The blue colour showing under the purple on the teaser ad is the same colour used for the new Air Transat livery. Could the new route be YYZ. Operated by one of there new A321neoLR aircraft.

Or has NCL managed to lure Westjet. They had been in talks with EDI about adding a new route from there, however nothing was announced. Maybe they have opted for NCL instead. I guess we will have to wait and see.

Ahha. That would be interesting. My initial thought when I saw the ad was to think of an airline that had light-blue branding but I couldn't think of any likely candidates. Would be good to see Toronto back.

Perhaps I'm being cynical, but my money's on a rather stretched definition of 'new'.

Perhaps a bucket & spade destination that hasn't been served for a few years, on an airline that has already served NCL in a previous incarnation.

Would love to be proved wrong though.

I’m guessing it’s going to be one of these from the master plan

I suspect you are probably right....nothing wrong with any of those destinations....Germany features heavily. Hope they don't keep us waiting till Friday for the announcements

I would throw my dart at Toronto , New A321LR aircraft and ticks the exciting destination box which NCL told ITV TT news few weeks ago was coming soon. Although it could easily be somewhere like Munich i dont see why they would tease a big announcement then for it to be a route like MUC. I see Munich / Frankfurt etc as more essential connectivity routes rather than exciting destinations but we will see , any new route is a postive

I’m thinking the same it has to be BIG but also at least 5x weekly service and hopefully year round

Indeed , would be great to see how a new fuel efficient A21LR with a nice amount of fillable seats would do.
