It is a ridiculous price but to be fair it’s a chartered plane and there are plenty of extras with the lounge and meet and greet stuff included.

Fans will get exclusive access to "Toon lounge"

Flew to Dortmund for our UEFA Cup final.

The whole airport will need a deep clean.

 

[Frozen Horse]

Seems excessive; can fly direct to Dusseldorf from Newcastle, then the train is direct from the airport to the centre of Dortmund in about 45 minutes.

I suppose those flights must have sold out.

Hah, that will be a difficult flight for the Geordies, I’ve hardly known any Geordie fly from anywhere except N‘Cassell.

Difficult one for some posters on here who seem to want to run down Teesside’s own airport and drive an hour and a half up the road to fly from Ponteland.

Not sure what charging geordies £599 makes it difficult with regard to Teesside's airport other than being another Teeside flight, but imagine will be nice and quiet for them there with no queues and plenty of parking spaces, funded by the Teeside taxpayer. Brill work by Ben, money well spent etc

it's not that people want to fly from elsewhere. But, the choice of destinations from Teesside is not great so you have to look elsewhere

Hopefully the "Passenger Facilitation Fee" has risen from £6 to £60 per bar code wearing buffoon.

I'd pay that if got to sit on a flight with Juninho or Gareth Southgate like

Any chartered flight added to the roster can only be a good thing for the airport but I am sure that doesn't fit with the narrative of some on here.

The odd charter flight is not going to make any difference to the losses we have to cover.

No, it's not but it is a start.

If we want the airport to turn a profit for the year we should open a greggs pop up shop for the day and reap the rewards.

We've seen Gregg's drive throughs, now time for a fly through.

Think most of the comments are tongue in cheek.

I once sat next to Malcolm Christie on a flight from Heathrow to Teesside. Nice chap. He didn't mention me in his book though.
