On my last 2 trips I've paid a fair bit more than a taxi to park at the airport but any increase would put paid to that.
I've just tried a dummy 3 week booking and the only options being offered are short stay 1 and 2 and premium fast track.

I believe they may have played around with the pricing mechanic. For a 3 day trip, short stay 2 is now more cheaper than long stay (used to be more expensive). However, the new structure does not yet appear to be reflected in other resellers pricing, for example APH is now cheaper then booking direct for long stay parking but more expensive for using short stay 1.
Easyjet has been neglected at Newcastle for a few year in favour of the bigger competition.
Apart from Jet2, what else is there flying to multiple foreign destinations?

Also probably due to inflexible local employees who "played the game" successfully over the years thus reducing base efficiency. I am told that late or non reporting resulted in a constant stream of people being taxied in to achieve the schedule. To a certain extent they are now reaping what they sowed.
But as usual it is the good ones which will feel it the most.

So how many destinations not otherwise served from NCL are at risk - Barcelona, Belfast, Bristol, Geneva, Jersey, Nice, Split? I think all except Jersey and Split are bases, so we may still see something?

Yes, I suspect that there won't actually be a massive reduction in flights by EZY at Newcastle. Even Jersey could easily be operated as a W from Liverpool, Edinburgh, Bristol etc. Still very sad news for the folks who will likely lose their jobs.
