Just been into a travel agent to see about currency and the chatty girl behind the counter said she had been looking at a summer trip and, like I said earlier, it was hugely cheaper to travel from EDI than NCL.
Simple supply and demand???

Yes - Newcastle and the North East is a small market (which is why EDI gets the bigger jet). The difference in school summer holidays also impacts on the Scottish/North East markets.

Telling someone who’s been up since 3am, probably on minimum wage and also worried about their job security with all that’s happening at the moment that you’ll hold them personally responsible for doing as they’ve been instructed by KLM really isn’t helpful, especially given the current climate.

The slow recovery continues - first British Airways flight back on the departure board today, along with Air France and KLM.
Jet2 re-started yesterday joinging Ryanair and Easy on flights to the Med, with Duty Free and a couple of bars now open.
FedEx freighter re-started last week.

I believe the position is "proposed, subject to consultation". Bit surprised to see such a full timetable for next summer. Is this just a placeholder or can this be done with non-based units?

TENERIFE was always winter only and MALTA was already stopping in March 2021. The routes from Newcastle, Southend and Stansted presumably have to be available as usual so as not to prejudice the ongoing consultation. If the base closures go ahead routes and timetables will be altered.

I am looking at flying to Nice. Jet2 have cancelled all Nice flights from the regions for the rest of this year.
I understand that EasyJet have announced that Newcastle is a base that is due to close subject to consultation.
But I see that they are still selling flights, on what appears to be Newcastle based planes, for August September and October, not to mention next summer.
How long will the consultation take? How safe is it to book any of these flights or is it likely that they will be cancelled with little if any notice?
Sorry if I have missed something.
