Ciudad Real, Lerida and many else failed investments...
...dodges of Ryanair are forcing to reconsider the appropriateness of low-cost airport investments practically anywhere in Europe.
Was it not Tony Ryan who said "you can't fly people from nowhere to nowhere".
I suggest that the failure of these two airports, and of CR in particular, has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with Ryanair.
Maybe they should consider 130-150 seat aircraft for slightly thinner routes.
That would seem to make sense, especially as it would also open up airports where you couldn't get a 738 in/out, but it would go against the whole mantra of keep it simple, one type can fly all routes.
