New Routes For Newcastle
 

Will there be a team from Newcastle going to the Routes Development Forum in Madrid next week?

If so, has anyone any idea which airlines and routes they will be chasing?

Newcastle will certainly be sending a delegation, not sure if anything will come out of it that isn't already in the pipe-line though.

The conference was held in Edinburgh last year and it resulted in a number of long-haul routes from GLA....

Owners BAA pushing that airport as the only viable 'springboard' to
Edinburgh? :*

Yawn yawn yawn...whatever :zzz:

The Scottish long-haul route announced at the conference last year was EDI-EWR! At least get your facts right if you're going to whinge. :mad:

What has this got to do with new routes at NCL anyway?:rolleyes:

I was just wondering if they would be pitching for routes to places such as MILAN.HAMBURG and FRANKFURT and maybe now that Bristol is getting a Continental service to EWR whether they would be pitching for that.

Seems their wish for a Milan route has been granted, Ryanair from February next year

Good timings for the new Milan flights, mid-day arrival and departure to/from NCL
Another rumour is Emirates to Dubai(!!!!) According to someone on that other site who supposedly spoke to an EK representative

Understand Wizz are looking at NCL, on similar lines to those recently announced for LPL.

Sure is getting pretty crowded everywhere now.

It didn't take long for Milan to come off my wish list for NCL.

Three more routes need to be added to my original list.

CORK, STOCKHOLM and OSLO

Hapag-Lloyd Express is starting NCL-CGN and NCL-MUC, also EDI-HAM and SNN-CGN.

Love to see it happen, but they don't currently fly to MUC from anywhere (Unless someone knows different!).

They have released it to the press already:

new routes from Cologne/Bonn:
Rijeka 3x/weekly
Shannon 4x/weekly
Newcastle 4x/weekly

from Hanover
Stockholm Arlanda 3/weekly
Rijeka 2x/weekly
Pisa 3x/weekly
Rome Ciampino 4x/weekly

from Hamburg:
Edinburgh 3x/weekly

Ab München:
Olbia 4x/weekly
Palermo 4x/weekly
Newcastle 3x/weekly

All starting around March 10 with Hamburg-Edinburgh starting December 5 already.

Newcastle is listed as a destination on the Cologne/Bonn airport site: http://www.willkommeninkoeln.de/02map/map02e.htm

Just got my e-mail (uk seems to be 24hrs behind Europe with HLX)
Just as Thomas says Cologne/Bonn & ab Munchen great news for Newcastle coming just after Ryanair's Milan. Lets hope they do as well as Hanover!

Looks like the great facilities at the airport and a recognized name is really paying off.
:)

The flights are now bookable on >>>> no they are not! NOT when blatantly advertised on PPRuNe via a website they are not. If they want to advertise here ask for details and costs! Read the rules on advertising right at the head of this forum.

The Hanover flight times have changed, as it seems the Munich flights will be 'W' flights through NCL.

from 27/03/2005

Just had a look at HLX winter timetable (correct at 30/9/04).
The COLOGNE service commences on 11th March TUES/FRI/SUN
and the MUNICH service on the 13th March SUNDAYS only then operates as per JOHN WALTON above

Fly Be should be firming up possible new summer routes soon..........Should give the traveling public of the NE even more choice!:)

What routes are flybe considering then?

Apparantly NCL is in the running along with 2 other UK airports for a DXB service, operating atleast 3xweekly. The a/c would have to be a A330.

Excel Airways are also looking at possiblity of starting long haul routes out of NCL to caribbean etc. This is in addition to 2 737 aircraft next summer. The airline obviously thinks very highly of NCL, as do other airlines.

Wonder if Ryan will start any new routes soon? Flybe to SNN, ORK, JER, TLS????
