A new Norwegian service, which will operate three times weekly from Cork to Boston/Providence, means the Irish airport will now have transatlantic travel for the first time in its 56-year history.
It's the latest step in Norwegian's long-haul low-cost surge into the US, and is expected to bring thousands of US visitors into Ireland, boosting the regional and national economies.
Following the launch, we spoke to Cork Airport managing director Niall MacCarthy (pictured left above ) to hear his thoughts on the new routes and how the airport's future network development strategy is shaping up.
[h=3]Q: How has interest in the Boston/Providence service progressed, and how do you expect it to develop?[/h]Both ourselves and Norwegian are delighted with the level of bookings. Interest from the States in flying directly to Cork is particularly strong which will be welcomed by our regional tourism stakeholders.
This is a year round route and so is very important to the airport in terms of passenger number potential and further capacity potential in future years. It is off to a good start and has been strongly marketed both in US East Coast and the outbound South of Ireland leg in partnership between ourselves and Norwegian and with support from the Irish National Tourism agency (Tourism Ireland) in the US.
[h=3]Q: Which other recent route success will have the largest impact on your growth?[/h]We have added four new airlines this year: Norwegian year round to Boston Providence, WOW to Iceland and onwards to North America, Swiss to Zurich and Volotea with scheduled service to Verona. Our existing carrier Aer Lingus Regional has added a new route to Newquay in Cornwall in the UK.
So that is four new airlines and five new routes in 2017. We will close 2017 with nine scheduled carriers and an additional number of charter carriers. We will also have become Ireland’s newest transatlantic airport and we are delighted to be awarded the ACI Best Airport in Europe under five million in Paris this month. So all in all 2017 is a good year for Cork Airport.
[h=3]Q: What are your major unserved/underserved route targets?[/h]We see growth in continental Europe in future years both in destination and capacity terms. We see growth potential in our summer sun destinations which are performing particularly well this year.
Of course we see growth in the US market in future years, probably initially in capacity terms once Norwegian gets a full season behind it and the new Boeing Max aircraft shows off its full potential in live service. We are well served in terms of Britain with services from Scotland through the midlands, down through Wales, three London airports and all the way to Newquay and Southampton.
However, we see challenges ahead in the British market due to currency volatility and Brexit but we will diversify and work our way through those challenges to consolidate our British traffic. Stepping up international marketing in the UK in conjunction with Tourism Ireland will be a key strategy in the next two years as Brexit unfolds.
[h=3]Q: Are you mainly targeting LCCs or full-service carriers?[/h]We have a diverse portfolio of airlines with Air Lingus and Ryanair competing directly in some markets from Cork. In fact, our growth the last 2 years has been in both sectors with WOW, Iberia Express and Norwegian serving a more budget orientated passenger and Swiss and Flybe serving the more traditional full service market. There is potential for growth in both arenas.
[h=3]Q: Your passenger numbers have risen consistently; do you expect this growth to continue and where do you see future growth coming from?[/h]We are now working on our strategy for 2018 to 2021. Our previous strategy was a turnaround strategy to grow the business seven years of consistent decline. That strategy proved successful. Our new strategy from 2018 to 2021 is also centred on sustainable, profitable traffic growth with plenty of opportunities and challenges to be worked through. Either way traffic growth is central to Cork Airport strategy.
[h=3]Q: What is your main proposition when discussing Cork with airlines?[/h]Cork offers a friendly, easy and award winning passenger service. Turnaround times are fast, Cork Airport is located in a beautiful part of the country serving both the Wild Atlantic Way and Irelands Ancient East – two of the premier tourism products in Ireland.
Airport charges are low against peers in Europe, at full charge we charge €8.50 per passenger to airlines but new routes are free in year 1 and only build to that level over 6 years. In that way we risk share on new routes and this is why our recent strategy has been successful. In addition we partner with Tourism Ireland and the airline in marketing new routes in inbound markets.
[h=3]Q: What are the major challenges your airport faces?[/h]In terms of geopolitical challenges the biggest one is the potential impact of Brexit with reference to our largest tourism market. We maintain a strategic risk register and I suspect most of the other risks are common to other airports of similar size in Europe.
[h=3]Q: Are there any other issues you would like our readers to be aware of?[/h]We are holding our annual Runway Run on 17th November. It occurs after midnight and is a really fun charity fund raising event. The link is here and we would be delighted if any of your readers would join us to take part in the event.

Intanto oggi il CFO di Norwegian ha dato le dimissioni causa le pesanti perdite del titolo........
Mi sa che hai invertito causa ed effetto: il titolo ha subito il crollo a causa delle dimissioni del CFO. Norwegian ha bisogno di reperire molto capitale e credito per finanziare la propria rapida crescita (anche solo per ricevere tutti gli aerei che ha in ordine), la partenza del CFO in carica da 15 anni può creare problemi alla continuità dell'operazione.

Se un CFO abbandona c'è sempre un perché , Forse perché non ritiene raggiungibili i target stabiliti dall'azienda ...o forse perché ha deciso di andare a fare volontariato in Africa, chissà......
Nell'azienda per la quale lavoro l'Ad si è dimessa il mese scorso per motivi personali: l'azienda non è mai andata meglio sotto il profilo economico. E' piuttosto normale che le persone cambino lavoro, incappino in problemi familiari o personali, si stanchino dopo 15 anni nello stesso ruolo (è il caso del CFO di Norwegian), ricevano offerte migliori altrove e così via. Non so niente della situazione di Norwegian ma sicuramente il presumere che le dimissioni siano causate da difficoltà dell'azienda è superficiale.
Continua il botta e risposta United-Norwegian, con il 7° volo per EWR degli scandinavi da febbraio.

Con Norwegian quanti voli si hanno di fatto al giorno su NYC (JFK+EWR) da FCO?
AZ 3x daily JFK
UA 1x daily EWR
DY 7x week EWR
DL 1x daily JFK
AA 1x daily JFK
Ce la fanno a riempire in periodo non troppo turistici?

UA se non sbaglio sarà 3x week e DL è daily?
Comunque un numero maggiore di voli verso NYC nella winter sono giustificati dal fatto che le rotte e le frequenze verso altre destinazioni USA vengono chiuse o pesantemente ridotte, quindi NYC oltre a essere la principale destinazione o/d Italia-USA intercetterà anche molti transiti verso altre destinazioni scarsamente servite in inverno.

Why United Airlines Plans To Resume Year-Round Newark-Rome Service
It turns out that Rome is the eternal city after all.
At the least, it has outlasted the temporary curtailment of New York-Rome service by the big three U.S. airlines: neither American nor Delta nor United operated the route in the winter of 2012.
United said last week it will restore Newark-Rome service this winter, operating between three times a week and daily.
Delta restored five-day-a-week winter service between Kennedy International Airport in 2015, moving to thrice-weekly in the winter of 2016. Alitalia serves the route year-round, and Norwegian Air says it will begin service in November. American is flying JFK-Rome between May 5th and October 28th.
For United, Newark-Rome makes sense because the carrier already flies year-round to 10 of the top 11 trans-Atlantic destinations from its Newark hub, said Patrick Quayle, United vice president of international network. Only Rome, which is number seven, lacked service.
“We are focused on winning New York, on building a more competitive schedule with more schedule consistency as we go into the fall and winter,” Quayle said. The Newark hub offers 400 daily departures to 158 destinations including 68 international destinations: the summer schedule has 27 trans-Atlantic destinations.
Quayle challenged the notion that Rome is primarily a leisure destination. “In terms of premium traffic, Rome is a top ten market,” he said. “It’s a lot smaller than London or Paris, but it’s in line with Geneva, Zurich and Amsterdam. There is year-round demand, which spikes in the summer.”
Budget carrier Norwegian announced in May that it will begin Rome-Newark service in November with four weekly flights, expanding to six weekly flights in February 2018.
Travel writer Joe Brancatelli said United’s thrice weekly winter service will not match either Norwegian’s schedule nor the daily winter service that Continental once provided from its Newark hub, but it will have one similarity: The flight numbers UA40 and UA41, match the Continental flight numbers 40 and 41.
United operates Rome summer service with a Boeing 767-400: it will downgauge to a Boeing 767-300 from Nov. 9 2017 to March 7 2018.
The industry’s 2012 cutback to New York-Rome service came at a time of general decline in European economies and trans-Atlantic flying. Now, the trans-Atlantic seems healthy again, with the biggest threat coming from capacity expansion, primarily by low cost carriers led by Norwegian.

È stato confermato e messo in vendita oggi il 7°volo
Quindi nella seconda parte ďella winter Norwegian opererà 7xw EWR, 3xw LAX, 2xw OAK.
La S18 per il lungo raggio, contrariamente alle altre destinazioni europee, non è stata ancora caricata da FCO.
Sarà interessante capire se ci saranno aumenti di frequenze sulla California e se eventualmente abbiano in cantiere anche altre tratte.
