Plymouth/Newquay
 

From the 26 October Plymouth and Newquay are reduced to Mon, Wed, Fri and Sun only. Down by two rotations a week. What were the figures for this route. From what i gather it was doing well but not oustandingly well just ok.


WOWBOY

You can check the monthly figures on the CAA website. They are usually shown as a Plymouth/Newquay total with no split. July was 1,876 and Aug was 1,942

Not really surprising that the WOW is cutting back. Plymouth and Newquay are more leisure routes than business based I would imagine.

I'd be suprised not to see the frequency improved when the summer comes around again!

AA - JFK
 

Looks like Newcastle isnt ever going to get the new york route

AA to start manchester from may 2010.

Doesnt manchester not have enough flights all ready to New york!!!!!
:confused:

HH6702, AA will fly MAN-JFK summer only. Delta are canning MAN-JFK, and BA dropped it last year leaving CO at 2 x Daily MAN-EWR and PIA MAN-JFK 2 x weekly.

New York
 

The topic of the possibility raises its head once again.

If we ever get a New York service and I can't imagine one anytime soon then it will probs come from CO. They are the airline, because of the close ties, monotoring the pax figure provide by NCL only long haul sched service from EK.

Stop it folks, there isn't going to be an NYC service any time soon. Let's not go over the same tired arguments agai. Bob Hope and No Hope.

HH6702
Dangerous to make assumptions re MAN-NYC, AA may be coming but DL are packing in 7 Jan 2010. I think we should stop even thinking about NCL-NYC for at least another 5 years !. More pressing issues should be to address how to get the pax. no.'s back up to well above 5M on a consistent basis & be able to show convincing growth thereafter.

BOOST FOR THE NORTH-EAST.

Has anyone noticed the new Boeing advert for the 787....it features the Angel of the North with a 787 superimposed flying over it (presumably heading for Newcastle Airport).

we can but dream !!

btw, which way was it heading ? .. as it could have been on it's way to 'Durham Tees Valley' :uhoh:

We are probably both wrong its probably overflying to AMS..........maybe one day......

Newquay and Plymouth.

In August the pax figures were 1942 for Plymouth and 1133 for Newquay. CAA have got a split for this month (first time).

3% and 13% down on last August respectively.

This is an update on figures I quoted recently in answer to a querie.

Perhaps they just wanted to see something that was built by people who know how to bolt 'wings' on properly. :E

787 Wings
 

You obviously haven't been following the 787 story very closely, very funny. :ok:

Jet2 have a number of charters to TLV from Cork & Dublin over the next month.

Does this affect NCL then?

It did - comment referred to some earlier posts which have obviously now been moved!! Newcastle based aircraft was used this week

Manx 2 have announced a further increase in IOM frequency. They will add a twice daily service on Friday commencing on 30th Oct., in addition to the Wednesday flight starting on 14th Oct.

Must be doing really well :ok:

Some idiot with a laser pointer in the Sunderland area tonight.
