Ten days late normally, if your lucky. Dont forget the 5 days it invariably takes the cheque (yes a paper cheque in 2006) to clear.

Post Dwarf Investments Inc. and the tailspin of Tailwind Nominees.

Or has PPRuNe become the exclusive domain of the Ryanair disgruntled employee windbags?
Yes.

Leo could you help me please.
I see in the latest accounts that the number of leased aircraft has risen from 17 to 24, a total on 7 new leased aircraft in these accounts.
Reading between the lines of the accounts it appears that they are operating leases. Are these aircraft part of the Ryanair order that were sold to a 3rd party and then leased back or have they come from outside the Ryanair order?

Am I understanding this article (in Italian) correctly:
http://www.paradisola.it/rassegna_st...sp?NewsID=1592

And that the crippling Sardinian PSO routes are to be abandoned from 15 Janauary 2007, allowing Ryanair to once again fly to Ciampino, and Easyjet to Milano?

If such is the case, maybe Ryanair will give even more consideration to opening a base at Alghero!

With RE pulling the DUB-SNN route, could FR give it a go? I wonder how their DUB-ORK route is going, anybody know? It has been increased in frequency which is always a good sign!!

Too many of these financial articles seem focussed on the short term. the quick buck. I guess the ALT pilots are in for the long haul, not a quick buck!

I confirm, EU have imposed to open BGY, MXP and CIA airport with free access for all airline to fly into Sardinia.

Now Ryanair is ready to restart CIA-AHO e maybe open BGY-AHO.
Also Easyjet would restart MXP-OLB.

Finally a new air of freedom in the italian sky!

Cork-Dublin is around 60% loading.....not bad in terms of a B738.....not too sure if Shannon could achieve even 50% though M'OL may be persuaded though

Paris Beauvais

Does anyone know why Ryanair has never launched a base at Beauvais? Considering the number of routes that Ryanair offer from Beauvais it seems odd that they haven't set up a base there

60% is actually pretty dire for a low-cost carrier (Ryanair's October network-wide average was 83%). It might be redeemed by high yields but, given the competition from train and plane on this route, I'm not sure about that.

If I look on skyscanner for Dublin-Cork & v.v. flights tomorrow (imagine I'm a business person needing to travel from Cork to Dublin at the last minute for an urgent meeting - the kind of passenger the revenue managers LOVE ), there's only one Ryanair flight selling at more than EUR31 including taxes. That doesn't suggest stellar route yields to me.

I think FR is on that route more to stop Aer Arann getting cheeky elsewhere than because it's hugely profitable for them. (Of course they can get good yields on a couple of the Friday/Sunday flights, for the Jazz Festival, etc - but so can anyone. The challenge is having a reasonable average yield and load factor all week, and all year - and if your 60% figure is accurate, it seems to me that FR ain't achieving either on DUB-ORK.

en2r,

I believe the reason they have never set up a base at BVA is to do with the hours of curfew there. I don't know any details of it but apparently they are not flexible enough to allow recovery from any disruption to the flight schedule.

Brussels Charleroi

So with the new terminal going to be ready mid-2007, Ryanair can finally expand at Charleroi, and rumour has it, that's exactly what they're going to do!

New rumoured FR destinations from CRL (from Sept 2007):
  • Liverpool (reintroduction, in time for Capital of Culture)
  • Bologna Forli
  • Oslo Torp
  • Morocco (I would expect RAK 1-3-5-7, FEZ -2-4-6-)
  • Poland (Any of Krakow, Wroclaw, Gdansk, Warsaw, Lodz are likely)
  • Slovenia (Other rumours would suggest Maribor)
I would also bet a lot of money on Murcia! The following destinations would come as no surprise either:
Porto, Santiago de Compostela, Sevilla, Granada, Alghero, Trapani, Genoa, Verona, Pescara, Bari, Brindisi, Bratislava.

Does anyone have any more info on the next FR expansion at Charleroi??

PS - Wizzair also intend to introduce Bratislava to Charleroi when they set up base there in 2007.

Thats a pretty concise guess there Charlie! Is this a theory of yours or do you have it on good advice?

Also is this where you think the last 2 planes for W07 will go?

Indeed, Ryanair still have 3 aircraft due for delivery before mid-2007 for which it has not been revealed where they are going to. Although 1 of them is hotly tipped to be destined for Pisa. Maybe the other 2 will go to Riga? Or who knows really?!

The CRL expansion that I'm talking about will be part of the next wave of expansion. For starters, Bremen will get one more aircraft in September 2007 and Charleroi is expecting 2 or 3 new aircraft in September 2007.

The routes that I have listed at the top of my original post were mostly mentioned by Ryanair during a press conference at Charleroi airport on the 29th of August.

The other routes that I have listed (mainly Spanish and Italian) are indeed pure guesswork.

This isn't the exact article I was hoping to retrieve to support my earlier CRL expansion claims, but it does go some way in support:

http://www.vrtnieuws.net/nieuwsnet_m...ir/index.shtml

Gering zegt dat hij tien nieuwe bestemmingen op zijn verlangenlijstje heeft staan, onder meer in Oost-Europa en Noord-Afrika.
Translation: (Regarding expansion at Charleroi next year once the new terminal is opened) Gering said that Ryanair have 10 new destinations on their wish list, including destinations in Eastern Europe and North Africa.

My Bet: Liverpool, Oslo Torp, Bologna Forli, Marrakesh, Fez, Krakow, Warsaw, Maribor, Bratislava, Murcia
