The dutch government will probably abolish the eco-tax(finally) to counter the economic crisis.
I wonder if Ryanair will announce new routes to Holland after the official announcement.

Bye, bye RIX (as a potential base at least)
Riga International Airport provides discounts for Latvian national airline airBaltic and the low-fare airline Ryanair for using airport infrastructure, but this policy will be changed in the nearest future, admits in an interview the new Transport Minister of Latvia Kaspars Gerhards. "Naturally, subsequently some air companies will have to increase their fees, but we have to do it to make competition laws effective in our airport," stresses Gerhards.
He pledges that everything will be done in a "clear and transparent way".
For me it looks like the Ryanair's romance with Riga airport is going to be abruptly terminated...

discounts for starting new routes are history. The airports that have given Ryanair startup discounts will also no wish to extend them. Ryanair have now pulled so many routes that it is ryanair that has the problems as much as the airports.
I also notice that they now have spare planes to do football specials. This seems to be a positive move away from flying even when it is loss making to looking for opertuintes.

Lord Lardy the leasing has always been on RYR's website for as long as I can remember so don't go looking to deep into it.
Befree the aircraft would have most likely been Shannon based aircraft and we would have spare capacity at the moment due to the winter schedule being flown (greatly reduced flying like all airlines at the moment). I think you'll find once the summer flying kicks off like most airlines there isn't much slack in the system.

Most airlines haven't taken delivery of a whole slew of brand new B737s since the economy went T.U. with a shed load more to find routes for. Major difference.
skipness agree with the deliveries but I think youll find the the Majors seem to be struggling as much if not more than the Loco's as a much larger and thus important amount of their revenue comes from the front end.
Thus with the collapse in the business first class market you'll find BA especially is struggling. Meanwhile the punters on their cheap and cheerful trips to the continent still seem to be traveling. You'll also find that the locos business is much less reliant on one market. Thus it is easier to redeploy metal to countries where whilst demand is softening its holding up better than the UK.
But hey lets all pray for it to end in tears hey?
PS I think youll find RYR did the same during 9/11 when there was a downturn in traffic figures. Provided they can bleed cash for the duration of the downturn once the upturn comes (and it will) RYR will be placed once again to take advantage of the numbers of pax. Like him of loath him MOL believe it or not does have some idea on what he is doing even if its not apparent to those outside of his inner circle.

Ryanair TV Advertising Campaign
Noted that Ryanair ran a TV commercial during tonight's ITV1 episode of "The Bill" [Granada Region]. Perhaps I have just been unobservant, but I cannot recall Ryanair using this strategy before (at least not in this region). It was a fairly typical message: sale of 1 million seats at ten pounds one way plus charges. Are we seeing a fundamental shift here in the way Ryanair will promote its product in the future?

A few years ago I noticed a Ryanair advert during Emmerdale on ITV1, it was very short with just a map of Europe showing routes from STN. I think it was possibly 2006 and was shown in the London region. It's the only Ryanair TV advert I've ever seen.

Like animals that sense an earthquake, some of us FR drivers have become adept in sensing base openings and have developed the subconcious to feel when an opening is imminent.
The rumours about El Prat seem to be accurate, my spidey sense is twitching.

They need as many £10 as possible due to a big bill for new planes. Also many people are now vowing never to fly with them again
Course they are because you believe it doesn't make it so.
