The way I read it is you have to be onboard around 16:00 - Train from Edinburgh to NewCastle is ~2hours. plus an hour on each end for transit to../ from stations (I know it won't really take that long, but you have to PLAN for it taking that long, So, Ferry at 16:00. 4 hours to get to Ferry, leave hotel at noon, yeah, thats a full day no matter what way you cut it.
737 - no matter the operator, ehh... Love collecting different carriers, but in the end its a LCC 733.
Too bad there is no propeller plane options.
