All I can tell you is that it looks like the EDI flight has spare capacity

I don't have definite info but I know that there was an extra Bulgaria flight planned this summer from NCL so perhaps this is the one that has been canclled? We are expecting to have a Sunday and a Monday flight, one to Bourgas and the other to Varna but they are not due to start until this coming week.

Varna flight is operating tonight. Believe also two x Bourgas flights on Monday.
BGH5915 VARNA 1800 APPROACHING
In fact, the Varna flight is approaching NCL as I type this.

Spare capacity? Is this the reason why EDI pax are historically
expected to fly from GLA when the flights from EDI are
FULL?

NCL flights

This summer NCL was due to have four flights to Bulgaria per week, 3 BGH and 1 Hemus, 2 flights each on a mon and fri. Like many other flights out of NCL two of them have been cancelled due to the tough times in the industry. Now the airport has the following:

MON BGH5946 BOJ STD 0915 STA 0815
FRI BGH5916 VAR STD 1900 STA 1800

Both flights on TU154 aircraft in Balkan Holidays colours.

Incidentally who is the handling agent for these flights?

Full? It seems according to you that pax were being 'diverted' from NCL to fill a less than full EDI - Bulgaria flight?
As for your 'historically' nonsense, I'll treat that 'observation' with the contempt it deserves.....Unless you of course can prove, yes prove, otherwise?

Perusing another forum on Google you are a member of (and I'm not thank god) I see a poster there has claimed that a family of 6 from Glasgow (?) has been split up due to their Glasgow to Majorca flight becoming fully booked just at their time of booking and 3 of the family now having to travel to EDI where it seems seats were in plentiful supply, and at £50 cheaper to boot,

Servisair handle the Tupolevs at NCL I believe.

NCL Charter Flights

I'm conducting a kind of study into charter flights/airlines from regional airports and just wondered what airlines operate regular charter flights from NCL ad MME, using what size aircraft?
