Great news for NCL!! Emirates must be really doing good loads of new routes, our (Glasgow) service going double daily with a 777W and A340-300.

Quote from NCL Site:
Emirates Airline will add more than 2,000 seats a week to and from Newcastle when it introduces a larger aircraft on its daily flight to Dubai from 1st September, 2012.
A 428-seat Boeing 777-300ER, the longest aircraft to ever operate from Newcastle, will replace a 278-seat Airbus A330-200 on the route – a capacity increase of more than 50 per cent
