We already have Jet 2, easy and the popular charter operators from Newcastle fighting for passengers. There is no way Ryanair are going to set up a base here. In my opinion there isn't the demand to fill 189 seaters and in the current climate. Wasn't the Dublin reduced because of the tax the Irish government were slapping on tourists ?????
Doubt the management would want them basing here and slashing there costs and forcing the other locos out. If there is going to be any expansion my money will be on Flybe
