Same happened last winter, didn’t it?

Aegean flights now operating until the end of October rather than half way through September, good news!

great news didn’t think it would happen in season 1

See KLM still not night stopping next couple of nights..therefore no early morning departures.Wonder if the airport has any input?
Folk can still fly from Teesside though..
Is this a shift of operations policy I wonder from KLM ?

Possibly something to do with the engine problems that KLM are having on their E195-E2s?
The schedules are a bit of a mish mash, most days 3 or 4 flights a day, with wednesday? only having 2 flights a day. Not helped by the fact that AF are not back at thei full 3 flights a day yet either

I note that todays Belfast City, Aer Lingus has been cancelled.

Due to a tech issue.

Interesting.

A route that used to be served by EASYJET....if my memory serves me correctly

Ryanair ??
maybe nice to see Wizz try ?

Wizz to Budapest would be an interesting addition due to all the insanely cheap connection possibilities down into the Middle East.. One-way Luton to Riyadh with a stop off in Budapest was going for £30 a few weeks ago..

Newcastle United's success last week should mean very good news for the airport.....with big numbers of charter flights in and out next year.

Wonder if they have the stands? Usually full overnight at moment?
Also Wonder if any plans afoot to expand the tarmac space!
Been no developments on that side for many many years?
Must be lots of latent demand from NUFC supporters..5/10k to Italy or Spain?

Short term problem :O

More than just the charters, I'm hoping for more international, long term recognition of Newcastle and the North East, more flights, especially with the Ryanair base, and more inbound traffic to complement the majority outbound market. It's a long shot, but a larger and more established ryanair presence, with more based aircraft and more routes for next year could massively help, especially if the routes just happen to go to high demand football destinations.

I do feel that NCL is on a roll at the minute! I hope it keeps up.

The German market could be a prime target for inbound traffic....Aida the big German Cruise Line has hugely increased its calls at Port of Tyne, this year and next so giving many German passengers a chance to sample what the NE has to offer, some of these could return for longer visits.

Indeed. Specials for some fans maybe. Do Newcastle have to play any qualifying games for the Group stages? Could be very short term. I hope not mind.

No qualifiers, straight to the group stages, so minimum of 6 games, 3 home and 3 away. Games from 19/09 to 13/12, so outside peak summer season (for those worried about parking :rolleyes:)

Eastern seem to have abandoned the planned second daily flight to ABZ following LM's entry on to the route.

Does anyone remember all the flights for Barcelina away? Think the airport almost seen the whole Monarch fleet 🤣
