To give credit to Ryanair, Part C (Airfield Briefings) of our Ops Manual had been updated on the 9th of April to reflect the fact that the main runway was re-opened. The question of whether A) The crews copy was up to date B) It was consulted or C) The runway was misidentified and the Professionals in the Tower were reading La Gazzetta and not doing their job of looking out the window and monitoring aircraft. Or a combination of any and all three.

Maybe it's the fact that the locos will accept these sub-standard airfields as acceptable destinations that causes these incidents.
Oh Dear
.
Either an airfield meets internationaly acceptable standards or it doesn't. What's this got to do with Ryanair? Lufthansa and British Airways were on the ramp the last time I flew there along with Meridiana and Alitalia. I don't mind a vaild criticism of Ryanair but make a vaild point!
