To be fair LH is having huge problems with Union strikes at it's Airports in Germany at the moment....Fri flights are being particularly hit by cancellations

Strangely, there's quite a few Germans use this route too.
You're right, though. I went through NCL last week and as always, the overwhelming majority of accents I heard were from the North East. Which contrasts slightly with the Newcastlegatesheadalloneword people's assertions that Tyneside is some sort of world-class tourist destination. I wonder where NCL stands in any league table of UK airports' outbound/inbound ratios? |
FR just announced NCL-BCN twice weekly from April. Looks like a/c is BCN based given the timings.

How are the freight figures on the 737 freight flight?
|
Which one?
The FedEx is averaging about 50t inbound and 50-100t outbound per month. The West is presumably a private charter - no CAA stats available yet, but so long as the client is happy... |

Looks like Air France are no longer increasing flights to CDG up to 14 weekly, instead, until August at least, they will operate 6/7 weekly.
Edit, suspect they are in the process of updating schedules |

That's a shame. It means for my trips they are still unusable.

Just noticed one of my FR flights in April to ALC is a Max, any idea if Newcastle or Alicante based?
|
Have KLM stopped the night stopping Amsterdam? See Teesside still have it?
Strange times! |
KLM schedule seems all oer the place. Nightstopper returns tue/wed though.
|
Today is the start of the summer schedule for KLM so maybe changes now/soon.

Strange times! Looks like GLA hasnt got a nightstop either tonight and MAN doesnt have one on the 1st so must just be a KLM issue. |
Is this news, that Sun Express will operate through the winter?
Due to high demand, SunExpress has also announced it will further expand its services to operate beyond summer and during the winter 2023-24 period with flights now on sale. |

I’ve seen lots of comments and feedback both from friends and family as well as seeing it on social media about how expensive both TUI and Jet2 are this year.
There’s certainly no denial everything across the board is going up but I will be interested to see passenger numbers and loads at NCL over the next few months as some of the fares are eye watering. This isn’t just at NCL, either, but perhaps we are affected more with less competition on a lot of routes asides from your ALC, AGP etc. i, for one, will be hoping RYR can add to the base in the coming years and that we can see an unlikely return of EZY. It’s only going to help in the long term. |
Not quite - the SunExpress stops mid November until mid February apart from 4 rotations over Xmas/New Year

Good to see the Airport has added a main deck cargo loader

Is that speculative, or something planned? |
A Champ 140 Main Deck Loader has recently been added to the cargo handling fleet located at Newcastle International Airport, increasing opportunities to facilitate a wider range of cargo aircraft at the Airport. The Champ 140 is capable of raising 14 tons of cargo to a height of 5.6m, reaching the main deck of wide-bodied freight aircraft, facilitating larger scale cargo operations and increasing the scope of the Airport’s freight capacity. https://www.newcastleairport.com/new...ional-airport/ |

You can also load 2 PMC's on the bottom bed instead of just 1 with your regular HiLos (Commander/Ranger) - Which are the other two types NCL has. Serious bit of kit. But it was ex DSA equipment. |
Hope its not something that was going to go in the empty shed at Teesside.

Jet2 expanding its Reykjavik flights for Winter 23/24 by adding a further 7 flights.
|
TUI ‘24
5th aircraft to be based for Summer 24, with Cape Verde and Egypt becoming year round.
The Dreamliner will also operate on some short haul routes. https://www.newcastleairport.com/new...r-summer-2024/ |
Yeah, base looks to be 2 x 738, 2 x 7M8 and 1 x 787 for S24. Good news
|
I would go to Naples but not if I had to stay for a week.
Why no Barcelona flights as an alternative to Ryanair? |
There is 5x 737s and a 5/6 day 787 operating CUN MLB and DLM & AYT on Sunday
|
Not sure I understand the usefulness of an ABZ-NCL Loganair BA codeshare when it has to be part of a connection- where might you be connecting to on BA? (when you can go from both direct to LHR) ?
|
A possible use would be a passenger from either LHR or ABZ stopping over in NCL for business meetings buying a through ticket using NCL as the connection point
|
"A possible use would be a passenger from either LHR or ABZ stopping over in NCL for business meetings"
yup A passenger - about one a month would be my guess............................ |
