Exactly. Moreover, this backward "expansion" continues. Today once more, "We regret to inform..." And next two routes are being scrapped.
No more flights to Budapest from Bremen and Frankfurt-Hahn.
Dublin, 12 December 2008: Ryanair, Europe's largest low fare airline, confirmed today the termination of its two routes from Germany to Budapest.

The official reason: the airport fees' increase. Last flight from Bremen to BUD will depart on 19th of January, last flight from HHN will take place on January 20th.

Every airline does have the right to close its unprofitable routes, that's obvious. The question is why it has been so difficult for them to associate these failures with some cardinal faults in the marketing and route development policies paired with the overall nonchalant attitude towards their own partners and customers, revenging now. Or... just unable to admit?
