Correct, better for the other operator of the route then. Not that means much as this winter is going only one way I fear (I really hope not as I am one of those likely to be badly affected, but I am a half glass empty man).

BA, LHR 3 flights tomorrow (Thurs). Then 2/3 flights per day after that for a while. Night stopping aircraft resumes at the end of October. ( All subject to change of course)

If EK has indeed ditched EDI- is NCL a bit ‘iffy’ as a suspension rather than outright cancellation?

If, if, if - have you any source? Doubt anything is certain at the moment so why the pointless speculation?

Whats the difference between a Cancellation and a suspension? they can change their minds on either when things get better

Spot on - crystal ball gazing is pointless at the moment.

Jet2 doing some consolidation this morning. PFO being combined with EDI and LCA with LBA originating flights.

A general interpretation would be:-

Cancellation....to terminate permanently

Suspension.....to cease temporarily

I can recall many instances down the years where "suspension" was actually marketing-speak for cancellation. Sort of "permanent suspension".

Maybe so in "normal" times - in the current circumstances, nobody knows how the market will react over time so either term is pretty meaningless (which I think was the point of previous posts)

I agree, routes that were profitable pre-covid ought, once the virus has run it course which Johnson reckons should be Spring next year, have a reasonable chance of making a come back. A lot will depend on which carriers are left by then, and how much they will pull back to their core, most profitable routes. And of course there's the other elephant in the room - Brexit. If there is no deal then business travel may take longer to recover, if if sterling took a hit as a result (of Brexit) foreign holidays could become rather more expensive at a time of what is likely to be (due to Covid) a period of high unemployment and continued recession.

Regional airports may take a long time to recover, perhaps 5 years. The commercial airline and travel industries have probably never experienced such uncertainty for decades, if ever at all.

Sadly, it will be a long road back to normality for regional airports given the fleet reductions many carriers have implemented or have still to implement. Regional routes, at the best of times, are pretty marginal so I expect to see consolidation on the larger >10m passenger a year airports and even some of those are facing hard times. You only have to look at Gatwick in that respect. Hopefully, I am wrong and only time will tell what the precise impact is on an airport like Newcastle.

You need to remember that airlines have got rid of a large proportion of their fleet, and the corresponding workforce to operate it. They wont be bouncing back any time soon, regardless of what happens with the virus and the economy.

The above articles would suggest Eastern will resume service between NCL and SOU in the New Year, with codeshare connections to The Channel Islands with Guernsey's Aurigny Air Services.

Interestingly this will compete with Loganair's codeshare with Blue Island's services.

It certainly looks like Jersey to me.......If it is, both Loganair and Eastern seem tied in with interline connection agreements with Blue Islands and Aurigney respectively, both via Sounthampton..........so who could it be???
