According to local TV station Omroep Brabant, Ryanair is talking intensively with Eindhoven Airport about more flights.
It even says: "According to Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary it could be a very considerable expansion"

Probably some new destinations for the winter. Don't expect to much from it because of the ever stringent noise regulations.

EIN is, as far as I know, still interested in new Ryanair routes. However, they're looking at some specific business destinations and new 'leisure' destinations don't have the highest priority.
According some well informed insiders, EIN will expand this year with additional airlines instead of numerous new Ryanair destinations.....

Malta
INDEPENDENT online
Interesting to see the mention of Naples. Ryanair are eager to open the new base from this winter.
Birmingham
Birmingham Post - Business - Business News - Other UK business news - Ryanair aims to create 700 jobs in Birmingham in next financial year
I expect doubling passenger figures implies more aircraft / routes / higher frequencies? That is, it will ot already be so with current routes/frequencies?
Eindhoven
I suppose Eindhoven can hope for routes at least from new bases like Bari, Brindisi, Malta. And existing bases like Birmingham, Alicante, Bologna, Edinburgh...

Although a press conference addressed yesterday by Ken O’Toole, head of Route Development at the airline, did not mention the new possible routes, a slide presentation they showed pointed out what the Ryanair officials called ‘possible’ destinations: Bournemouth, Paris, Birmingham, Stansted London, Brussels, Krakow, Turin, Bologna, Naples, Milan, Seville and Valencia. Some of these routes are at present served by Air Malta.

Fr @ Bhx
Thanks for posting those links.
The article about BHX mentions the (almost) doubling of passenger numbers from 900,000 last year to 1.6M this year.
With the summer schedule, FR are already operating an average of about 18 departures per day from BHX, which is more than sufficient for 1.6M pax without any additional aircraft, routes or frequencies.
However, you never know with FR - they could always decide to base more aircraft at Birmingham. Indeed, they will need to if they are to reach the target that they mentioned when the base was launched last year: 5M pax per year and 10 based aircraft by 2013.

“We aim for one person per 1,000 passengers so our aim is to get to 1.6 million passengers which would mean that we would create an additional 700 jobs in the 2009 to 2010 financial year.”
Mr Tamas said Ryanair sustains 1,500 jobs in the West Midlands and brings £150 million in tourism revenue to the Birmingham region.

cause 1 new job to be created in the region for every 1000 passengers they transport (this has been a topic of debate in these forums in the recent past!).

Voilà déjà plusieurs années que la compagnie à bas coût Ryanair s'intéressait à la Corse et plus particulièrement au plus sudiste de ses aéroports, à savoir Figari Sud Corse. Cela sera chose faite à partir du 6 juillet prochain, trois fois par semaine, depuis Milan et Bruxelles, soit six rotations hebdomadaires avec la Belgique et l'Italie.

Takes Extra-curricular Business to New Levels...
"Strictly one item of cabin baggage is permitted per passenger (excluding infants) weighing up to 10kg with maximum dimensions of 55cm x 40cm x 20cm (your handbag, briefcase, laptop, shop purchases, camera etc. must be carried in your 1 permitted piece of cabin baggage). "
On a typical flight if everyone complies with this would there be enough room in the overhead compartments to accommodate the stated 1 piece of cabin baggage plus say a coat for all passengers?

There are varying standards of enforcement at airports. At Prestwick they enforce them with fascistic zeal while at Marseilles I was behind a guy carrying a backpack, sports holdall and a laptop case. He went through without a murmur.

Seems PIK is losing Krakow in addition to the self inflicted loss of Bournemouth which was screwed when they introduced the super early timings. Looking more like the base is losing a based B737.....

anna list I think if you look at that report again you'll see that it's a LOSS that they're projecting and not a profit. Certainly according to the Irish Times report at 07h10 today. It's possible that this might have something to do with aircraft that they have received and have many more to come and don't have anywhere to put them. Perhaps a bit of a f**k up in the short term but I can't imagine it will be in the long term. Sure Ml O L will blame the usual suspects on this - fuel, airport charges, aer lingus share hold, airport charges, ombudsman, airport charges, downturn in the market, airport charges, recession ............ Did I mention airport charges??

Actually MOL does predict a PROFIT for 09/10. From the BBC
"Mr O'Leary said the carrier expected to report profits of between 200m and 300m euros for its current financial year, as its continues to attract more passenger through cutting ticket prices."

Ryanair misleads again
Ryanair lost £169million
Each plane sold was over £3 million below book value. That means the current 181 airframes are worth over £500 million than book value. The expect income per seat to drop to around 30 euros. They are stuffed. The oil price has gone up sharply in the last few weeks. They are hedged till december and will then get a big shock.

Seems to be a bit of smoke and mirrors regarding the drop in price of the FR Aer Lingus shares.
I think traffic is still up and the fuel hedge this time is good looking forward.
Not sure if the whole Aer Lingus thing is Irish internal politics or part of a long term strategy (I think the former). If FR don't get them next time, Aer Lingus are surely sunk, forcing FR to write of the remaining value of the AL shares in 2010,11 and maybe 12 if the stagger on that long?
