No chance of Stobart coming to Knock, they're heading for Donegal to get the PSO cash I believe.
From a personal perspective today's news means that, for the first time in a long time, there will be no direct flights from any Scottish airports to any west of Ireland airports.

Manchester is certainly not gone and I understand it will be on sale during the week interesting to see stobart air CEO stSnding down after just six months in the job - I'm sure that's a wake up call fur shannon now with just ryanair essentially servicing their uk network - just shows the market for carriers is very small

I see a rumour elsewhere that Enda will be at Knock on Monday. Anyone know if it is (firstly) true and (secondly) regarding anything worthwhile? Knock could do with a positive announcement as there have been no new route announcements to date this winter. Even if it is not regarding new routes some news of development of the airport facility or its surroundings (business part etc.) would be welcome.

You reckon MOL be playing Santa Claus at NOC as well as SNN on Monday? If he does make it to NOC I'd imagine it will be another round of euro routes and who knows maybe another UK.

Expect ryanair to announce they picking up the aer Arann routes at shannon Monday and prob more - no big announcement expected Monday at knock - a further sign shannon flexing their new found financial power! Gonna be tough for knock to compete unfortunately!

@aerryan and they were handed a property portfolio of >€100m, and special tax treatment for the Shannon area...and...and...and.....
You're right bailout is the wrong term as that implies they were broke, sweetheart deal is more accurate.

And and and...... what?
A new government title was established, debt free as normal.
If you would like to tell me how the property portfolio actually affects Shannon Airport in anyway, I would love to challenge you on those points.
Special tax treatment? I haven't even heard that claim ever being made.

If you could send me these challenges in PM that would be great, we dont want to de-rail a perfectly good thread.

Knock has lost 5 routes for 2015 and possibly a 6th could be lost soon. 3 of the lost routes has been newly introduced by Ryanair.
The lost routes are:
Kaunas, Lithuania Newly introduced for 2014 but now transferred to Shannon (Ryanair)
Eindhoven, Holland Newly introduced for 2014 but will not continue for 2015 (Ryanair)
Prestwick (Glasgow), Scotland Newly introduced for 2014 but will not continue for 2015 (Ryanair)
Gran Canaria, Spain Will not continue for 2015 (Ryanair)
Cologne, Germany Possibly Transferred to shannon (GermanWings)
The other route at threat:
Manchester Not confirmed to continue for 2015.
What did enda do while at Knock on monday? Did he just look at the airport?
