Lelystad

The development of Lelystad to a commercial airport is going to take years and years, even though the government has chosen Lelystad to take over some of the European traffic from AMS. There is very little interest from Dutch airlines like Transavia and Arkefly though...

Besides that, we are the Netherlands you know, each objection is taken way to serious and delays the process terribly. Each municipality surrounding Lelystad has objected to the proposed approach routes. The development is going to happen, but the question is when...

Very surprised with the recruitment advertisement for the supposed AMS base. We have the so called lowcost gates M/H, where EasyJet (and sometimes Norwegian, Transavia, Jet2 etc) arrives. Definitely where Ryanair would start operations as well, but it would be very surprised to start with a base. Things like DUB-AMS, STN-AMS etc could work, 'cause they'll always be cheaper than EZY.
