[Coquelet]

Ryanair announces : Although the Ryanair horse didn't win, we will still give away 1 million free seats, because we probably jinxed him !

Press conference at 11 o'clock in Limerick apparently

[840]

Shannon-Berlin announced

In the small print at the bottom, Shannon-Riga and Shannon-Kaunas got cancelled to free up capacity for the route.

[vkid]

usual ryanair route rejiggles so..although i'd think the Berlin route is a better option than the 2 lost imo

[840]

Except that Riga is the only service to Latvia from Munster and there are quite a lot of Latvians living in Munster. A Berlin service will be up against Aer Lingus' Cork-Berlin service and it's questionable whether there's room for both. It could end up like Madrid with services withdrawn from both airports.

[Charlie Roy]

Indeed, I am shocked that Ryanair are dropping SNN - RIX
Gobsmacked in fact.
Surely now ORK - RIX is a no brainer for Aer Lingus or Air Baltic.

[vkid]

I've often wondered though why FR do little or no advertising of some SNN routes in the region though. Very small ads in regional papers (if any) and little else compared to Air France with large 1/2 or full page ads all over the place billboards etc, for the cityjet CDG routes and onward connections...
A lot of people dont even know certain routes exist with FR and Riga and Kaunas are 2 that will result in many people going ...Where? Really..Did they fly there? A lot of the UK/France/German routes are well known but some of the less known destinations could do with a small bit more of a push imo if they are to work. Maybe not the FR way of operating though

Here, here! A friend of mine has more than 30 Lithuanian/Latvian co-workers where he works in Cork city. At Christmas time when a lot were flying home for the festivities he was surprised that they were flying from Dublin. On asking them if the Shannon flights were too expensive or booked out, it appeared that none of them even knew about the Shannon/Baltic flights!

quite a lot of Latvians living in Munster

Quite a lot aint good enough for Ryanair.........the few thousand who might only make the trip home at Christmas and summer perhaps, dunno really how that could sustain a twice weekly route


Berlin is interesting though. Might use that myself...

[Richard Taylor]

"...might use that myself..." Hmm, not sure RYR could sustain a route on that basis either...

[fivejuliet]

Ok, fine I will use it
