South East? They fly to Leipzig, but if you mean Bavaria... well, they'd love to, but MUC is just too expensive for them. There are some other potential destinations in the region they have been negotiating, not yet agreed. Try flying to Salzburg instead (good rail connection to Munich) or take easyJet.
FR used to fly to Strasbourg in Eastern France until 2003, but
Air France protested claiming that Ryanair's aid had given it an unfair advantage and won the administrative court ruling that the aid it received was illegal. After that Ryanair had to halt its service to Strasbourg with four weeks' notice.
