'bout time too.
Looks like CAX have missed the bus.

Probably far more people wish to flee Newcastle than the English Lakes so it makes sense. Carlisle will develop its own niche markets with more appeal to its residents.

And here's us 'fleeing' darkest West Midlands for Northumberland as often as possible. Funny old World.

Don't tell - it keeps out the riff-raff...

If you've got nothing sensible to say, say nothing.

On a more constructive note: must admit, I didn't see that coming, especially four times weekly and year-round. I'm guessing flybe might well pull off their seasonal weekly route to Newquay, although, I'm guessing, their fares are probably cheaper than Loganair's.

perhaps flyBe will transfer their ops to MME?

I quote the previous honourable gentleman. “ if you’ve got nothing sensible to say..say nothing” !

I wonder who will take up the lost capacity on Dalaman next season, with TCX having operated daily flights this summer...the destination had 23,625 pax from NCL in August alone, up 19% on last August.....a growing market.

They'll just all go on whatever cheap packages there are elsewhere. Plenty of destinations with other tour operators that are nowhere near full, just as happened when Enfidiha crashed.

Begins with 'J' and ends with '2’ perhaps?
TUI too sloth-like to respond to such an opportunity.

that works out at 4 flights every day. Didn’t know Newcastle had that many.

[LiamNCL]

Dalaman will be a big loss, Jet2 could pick it up but your talking daily A330 territory in height of summer. Other reductions will probably be absorbed elsewhere but would like to see TUI start up Hurghada as it does from nearly every other base (Santorini at a push but cant see anyone replacing Skiathos ) easyjet could up TFS to year round aswell. Realistically i think we will get +1 Jet2 738.

Just a thought..we talk about all these uk tour operators..do Turkish tour operators not Exist? Could they not take up the slack? After all its their economy..or is the UK Tour operator so advanced!
Same goes for Spain,Italy,Greece..et al...or do they just rely upon us?

[HH6702]

Jet2 and A330’s

There is a lot of talk over at Jet2 with aircraft leases for next summer and a few A330

could we see a based lease A330 at ncl?

daily PMI/ALC then DALAMAN??

highly unlike but it would save the need for 2 daily flights with crew costs etc

more will be known by end of November when jet2 sorts out the leases

did TCX have around 4/5 on lease ?

It's a spanish company offering the PMI flights from Teesside next year, but in the main, no.

Been here for almost 2 weeks now - bird strike according to a colleague. I really thought they would have got it shifted.
