Newcastle-9

[highwideandugly]

Troubling times for all... I see our local airports ,as many others ,are just about in lockdown.According to AIS,Some strange opening hours though?
I wonder if finances could have been made available to extend opening hours to facilitate help for the medical,economic and social needs of the UK . Especially here in the NE with fantastic facilities and medical research?

[SWBKCB]

Airport is available outside of the published hours by prior arrnagement, and has been used so for ambulance flights.

Looks like BA have cancelled all June flights from NCL. Next bookable date on ba.com is 1st July.

KLM

KLM have suspended the AMS service effective from 1st May. Looks like they will return in June.

March CAA stats are out - Brussels and Stavanger were up!!

[highwideandugly]

Airport Closed for just about all of May apparently, other than a few hours in the morning?

Recorded record ,I know, but I bet most ,if not all airports wish they had diversified to spread the risks!
This could and probably will be in the future master plans? No longer relying on bucket and spade hols!

Maybe so but Teesside didn't plan this as some-sort of masterstroke. It was dumb luck.

Not just bucket and spade?

problem is you have to have a market where people want to travel to.
great to have city breaks and we do have a few but they don’t last long a few years at most.

More cargo??
business park being built quicker ??

KLM Embraer inbound now, so is today the last flight?

[GrahamK]

As it stands, KLM return in Junewith a 5 x weekly E175/190, thenreturn to 4 x daily from 5th July
AF restart CDG from 1st June, 3 x daily A318/E190
LH restart Munich 6 x weekly from 1st June
Eurowings return 1st June with a 4 x weekly DUS on the A319
Emirates 1st August 77W
BA 1st July? 4/5 x daily

All subject to change of course

[Jamesair]

Latest from KLM is a re-start of services on the 1st June with 5 x weekly service operated by E175 a/c.

[highwideandugly]

And 14 days quarantine? I think not!

Assuming the Spanish and Portuguese open their borders to UK Covid-rich pax and no 14 day quarantine either way.

LH don`t restart in June to NCL and I don`t think AF do either certainly not 3 daily

[highwideandugly]

Airport not open anyway..so that doesn’t help!

Oh dear, your bias is showing again. Airport is NOTAM'd as being open from 08.00-12.00 Mon-Fri until the end of May. Hours expected to be extended there after.

[GrahamK]

5 x weekly KLM in June is all the airport terminal seems to be opening for now, subject to change,

[jensdad]

The latest plan is that the 14-day quarantine will be over by the end of June so if (I know...) that's the case, it shouldn't affect this. All is subject to the vagaries of a natural disaster though, so all is speculation.
