TUI have added a Thursday NCL - CFU from next summer according to their schedule, leaving at 0600hrs. This brings the Corfu route up to 4 days a week with various airlines. Good news for us as we use the route 6 times a year. Anyone know what it's replaced?

TCX 2019
Thomas Cook sent a memo to cabin crew that the A320 has been dropped for 2019 and is down to 2x A321
it stated that the group had to reduce ACMI partners from 23 to 15 and that analysis showed NCL to be the least profitable in the UK. Room for Jet2 to add another 738 ? |

I assume not. Could be some big decline in pax numbers at this rate.

No need at all to get your coat or shut any doors, N707. You're right.

Poor from Thomas Cook the flights were loaded for 2019 with a Thursday TFS added. Seems like they have shook things up since their profit warnings and ultimatley ACMI aircraft have cut back with NCL suffering the only UK Casualty.

Not strictly true if you look at my post on the BHX thread. BHX lost 7 weekly flights (including two destinations) yesterday from the 2019 schedule and although this only equates to half a based unit (6 were away based and one night based flight) it is still a significant loss but granted not as bad as Newcastle. I have not checked across the fleet about other loses and it is difficult at times to tell as I don't know the full schedules coupled with the fact that some threads don't post bad news due to excessive use of rose tinted glasses.

Also, was under the impression that the ACMI partners were a cost saving measure over operating own metal. Anyone correct this? cheers |

Flew ACE-NCL mid-july on an A321 and counted 18 spare seats (that I could see). Sunday lunchtime flight so no dodgy flight times. Can't be good for mid-summer so perhaps a sign of sensible adjustments for next year.

How do you know this? # just asking

Anyone know why Flybe/Eastern seem to have had 1-2 flights cancelled per day over the last 2/3 weeks? Cardiff especially seems to be cancelled quite frequently.

Thomas cook haven’t had a good week announcing 2018 profits much less than expected and share price Nearly at an all time low. So the positives for NCL are that we can’t have solely contributed to the group’s poor performance AND at least the operation here was profitable (albeit other bases were more profitable). The empty seats this summer ties in with their trading update - hot summer and world Cup so people staying at home or booking late. I was surprised at the number of empty seats on a BY 757 to RHO in 2000 mid summer but that flight continues to operate today. However, IIRC in 2001 when JMC and First Choice “colluded” to shut the Ncl AIr 2000 base and just share the JMC 757, Thomson responded by basing a 767 and increased this in 2003 to a 763. So, perhaps TUI or Jet2 will respond by increasing capacity. reports have suggested that the 7/14 night holiday has died over recent years and flexible durations were the way to go. If TC aren't able to do this anymore from NCL with only 2 aircraft may get more difficult for them. But, I’m not sure if the massive debt that A former MD loaded the airport with is still there but it would be interesting to know if this affects the airports ability to offer incentives to operators. |
