Quoting MANmatt (Reply 3): Has the St. Lucian sun gone to your head Kirky?! cheeky Would have thought they would add somewhere like GLA or BHX before they even look at NCL.
Apparently QR bosses have been at NCL having talks so who knows? We now have AA starting JFK flights, so I think a 3 weekly flight to Doha would work, providing connections to the Far East/Africa/Australia
When you hear the noise of the Tartan Army Boys, we'll be coming down the road!

Quoting Gkirk (Reply 7): I take it that both of you are Airline CEO's then?
In my dreams, yes!
Seriously though, I wasn't knocking an NCL option at all, just delaying it. If EK, GF and Ethiad between them become present at all other major UK regional airports, then QR might test NCL, just like AA are with their JFK offering. However I firmly believe QR will go daily at MAN before thinking about NCL.

Does QR have an official rumor spreader employed ? There are also rumors that they will start flights to DUS but I haven't heard anything official until now.

Pretty much what Boysteve said
I would love to see QR at NCL, I'm not saying it won't happen, I'm just saying QR would maybe consider other services before NCL!

I must agree with the rest of the "rebels" in saying that NCL is unlikely to be high on QR's priority list.
Also, you maybe know that QR, as of today, still does not fly to Australia though that should hopefully change with the arrival of new A346’s next year.

Just remember that the Scots will travel anywhere to save a penny so NCL would be a good idea for EDI/GLA pax Interesting that QR is not looking at EDI so maybe a lowcost option is NCL . BHX has a good variety of Antipodean options and MAN has oots

Why would flying Qatar from NCL save Scots any money? Got to disagree, hence the success of all the direct long haul flights from Scotland.
The QR rumour has done the rounds at EDI already, the rumour of EK starting services at EDI is much stronger than any QR rumour just now though.
