The shift in Ryanair's route policy (from small to big airports) does continue.

Today in Spain FR has confirmed it is going to terminate all its operations to/from Vitoria (Spain) at the end of October. Some data emerged, however, about the financial support that the carrier has received from the Society of Promotion of the Airport of Foronda (VIA, la Sociedad de Promoción del Aeropuerto de Foronda) in order to promote the existing routes and develop new ones. The agreement signed with Ryanair amounted to 1.050.000 euros, all the money has been paid already. Will the sum be returned to Vitoria after the retreat... don't you have some doubts?

An other news comes from Czechia. The rumours about Prague as a new FR destination should be confirmed at a press conference in Ruzyne that is imminent. Among the destinations will be Dublin for sure, how many more? We shall see tomorrow.

According to Interfax there's a press conference at Prague Airport tomorrow, announcing a "new airline at prague airport". I don't which airline that will be, but it could be Ryanair.

Well indeed, the press conference will be held tomorrow at 11:00 AM. The authorities at PRG airport had refused to name the new carrier, but even FR's competitor Sky Europe is 95% sure it will be them. "It's in their style. But there won't be any Ryanair base in Prague now" - said Sky's Jan Čamek.

Sky Europe could be one of the low-costs hit by this development.

It's obvious. SkyEurope is going to leave Krakow because of FR (there was a gossip about FR's new base in Krakow) and now they are frightened of FR's new destination - Prague (may be the same situation as in Krakow).

Ryanair booking engine already shows extra LGW and STN flights from Shannon starting February 14th.

The flights will be operated by a Shannon based aircraft. It is not obvious however, which of the existing routes will see time changes, frequency reductions, or an axing of the route, to allow for these new flights to London.

Same definition as that promise of an 'imminent' announcement about the new Ryanair Long Haul airline.
I think it was 6 months ago.

Kubik, don't be impatient. Polish and Czech languages are not far apart, you should understand this:
Změna času TK.
--------------------
Praha - 15:30 TK k příchodu nové letecké společnosti na Letiště Praha.
Today, but at 15:30

eu01 > you're wrong, Polish and Czech are very far apart, there are many words which look the same, but mean different.

A month or so ago FR applied for slots for:
  • DUB-PRG-DUB = once-daily
  • PRG-BOH-PRG = once-daily
  • PRG-EIN-PRG = once-daily
  • PRG-NRN-PRG = once-daily
  • NYO-PRG-NYO = thrice-weekly
That doesn't mean that they will materalise, but it's certainly interesting.
