I understand that the loads on the twice daily service from Bergamo are pretty good bearing in mind that ops only started in February. Ryan may well test the water further by starting additional flights from other european bases such as Skavsta and Hahn prior to actually basing a small number of aircraft at LTN. I recall reading somewhere, MOL's comments a few months ago that LTN could possibly be home to up to seven Ryan aircraft if a suitable deal could be worked out as this would improve its catchment area to the west and north-west of London. However, we all know what type of deal MOL wants from the airports he uses, and this has to be a major stumbling block. If it did happen, it would do little to help the new budget airline NOW which is trying to establish itself at LTN with flights starting sometime in the summer(if it ever gets off the ground) It should be interesting to see it anything transpires over the coming months.
