Newcastle International Airport Limited

Um, we've got apprenticeship, uh, different levels, uh, Aspire level one, level, level two, level three.

Um, so currently, uh, Rob's got Jayden, who's based out of here, who's done Ho- uh, Holiday Inn Jesmond, who's now doing DoubleTree as a Hilton at the Newcastle Airport.

Um, and then Maya's, uh, been out of York, uh, and doing some stuff at Harrogate at Majestic for a year, uh, and is now with us, um, for a year doing her placement here.

So, um, and then Ruby's just joined us three, four weeks ago.

Flight tracking data showed the aircraft heading south at around 23,000 feet near the Scotland-England border when the 7700 emergency squawk code was activated.

The plane was turned east over the Solway Firth before making its way towards Newcastle Airport.

It landed safely in Newcastle shortly before 12.10pm. A Ryanair spokesperson said...

This flight from Glasgow to Alicante, 26th October, diverted to Newcastle after a passenger became ill on board.

The aircraft was met by paramedics upon landing at Newcastle Airport and the passenger was offloaded for further treatment.

This flight continued to Alicante at 13.07pm local time.

That article was written by Aidan Maxwell.

The journey home was interesting, she says.

I spent the flight with my head in one of those paper bags and then threw up when we landed at Newcastle Airport.

Oh, that's a long build up to that throwing up, Gigi, you poor thing.

I love that good intentions always start out, don't they? Like, right, this is the plan and this is what I'm going to do.

Yeah.

Newcastle Airport forever goated.

Best in the world.

Belfast International is not far behind.

Yes.

Um, I used to fly a lot with my parents, you know, but my dad actually used to work as a marketing manager at, at, uh, Newcastle Airport.

Mm.

So it was quite interesting that he loved flying, but I didn't.

Well, hi folks, and welcome to this week's Lesley Riddoch Podcast.

I've just hightailed it up the road from Newcastle Airport to discover a deed microphone.

Leslie's [laughs] under pressure of time to get out the door, but there are heaps of things going on in all things politics.

Welcome, Ms. Riddoch.

I don't know.

Going through Newcastle Airport, some of the beasts I've seen in there.

Yeah.

Yep, yep.
