Cawley in Tampere
Last Friday, Ryanair's Michael Cawley has visited Finland. In Tampere he said he was very satisfied with Ryanair routes to Finland (everywhere a standard sentence I guess), especially with German and Bergamo routes - and indeed they've been running excellent. After the upcoming upgrade of the Terminal 2 he sees Tampere as one of the new FR bases. Next year will bring a couple of new routes to Tampere and one of the destinations (not announced yet) will most likely be in Central-Eastern Europe (Poland, Czech Rep., Slovakia or Hungary).
I think many routes to CE-Europe could succeed, however in none of the countries mentioned there are FR bases as yet (and W-pattern is rare at FR). Ryanair enthusiasts (quite a few here) discussing the issue favour destinations like Berlin and diverse in Southern Europe.
