Newcastle-9
Newcastle Airport would get three new routes if air passenger tax was abolished, report says
Research commissioned by trade body Airlines UK identified 66 potential new connections that could be more viable if the tax was abolished, including links from Newcastle to Birmingham, the Portuguese capital Lisbon and Marrakesh, in Morocco.

If above from FR24 is correct
Returned to NCL as MT4805 yesterday morning at 06:45 then Outward bound from NCL to DLM to NWI to DLM to Newcastle (arriving back at NCL at 03:52 this morning - It is next planned outbound to DLM this evening (6.15pm as MT688)
p.s. G-TCDB which has been brought in for this morning's delayed Lanzarote service (currently departing MAN for positioning to NCL) will not be back to NCL until late evening/early hours tomorrow morning. At the moment FR24 is showing MT688 to DLM at 6.15pm is being operated by YL-LCO (although this could change - No delay is showing on Newcastle Departure board for Dalaman as yet)

on YL-LCO the hefty delay at ZTH was a stab trim fault, seems to be less issue ridden than LY-VEN/P that we had last year. It'll be the same next year however another marginally airworthly A320 to hammer during the summer. 2/3 tech delays are enough to not bother TCX.

NCL airport have confirmed on Twitter that it’s been dropped for summer 2019.
Given lack of new routes/continuation of old routes we’ll have to settle for wondering if TUI 738’s swap out at all before the end of the summer - must be months now since the last change!!!

"We!"??, don't think so !, your comments & indeed sentiment would be more appropriate on the "Reggies" forum.....

Looks like I've been missing some fun and games with the weather.
An "interesting" day at NCL here:

No room for a Gulfstream?
From overhearing someone else listening to the tower frequency this evening
I gather that a Gulfstream wanted to overnight at NCL but, due to there being no parking space, had to go to Farnborough to come back in tomorrow morning. If true, a reflection of the healthy fortunes of the airport, but sounds like they need to get their skates on and build some new stands.
