Re Malta - Bari. Where will the aircraft W from?
Looks like FR are after Aer Arann at Galway with all the mention of the improved links to Galway in the press release, and the new routes to LBA, LTN and BHX, plus extra frequencies to EDI and MAN - all RE destinations out of Galway

(oh, and I would add: the up-to-6-year-old models they're selling will fetch a price not far short of what FR paid for them in the first place. It's certainly easier to make money when your aircraft capital costs are getting near zero...

Will Ryanair Save the West?
In Galway today MOL announced 8 new routes for SNN and spoke of the huge spin off for tourism in the West.
Many existing routes are being dropped or suspended including SNN-East Midlands which was omitted from the press release.
Hard to see any net benefit for SNN or the west in all of this despite the spindoctoring in the media by Ryanair and Shannon Marketing.
Since launching the base in SNN in 2004 Ryanair has gradually switched from inbound tourist routes to outbound sunroutes and routes catering for Polish and other East European workers.
All this will do is undermine many of the routes out of Galway although Aer Arann is far from the expected pushover on Cork Dublin.

Update on Ryanair base at TRN:
If the deal will be signed rumors report Ryanair first new routes from TRN are probably DUB, CRL, SXF and MAD with start from winter timetable.

SNN - CIA was operated by a Rome based aircraft
So probably will be annunced soon a new route from CIA.
For now every new route from CIA is not possible due to slot restrictions, the only way is to axe or reduce any existing route.

With regards SNN-EMA- It is unlikely that it has been dropped. It, and approx 15 other routes are not available for booking from Shannon at the moment. More than likely, the entire schedule needs re alignment.

i think ryanair would be mad to drop shannon to EMA the average numbers per flight has been between 135 to 160 in the last few months which is very good, flight times are good, im not too sure about how the birmingham flight will do, its a late one.

Business passengers can also fly to Birmingham the night before their meeting and then fly back after their day of business.

late flight
I was on the late SNN/EDI rotation a few weeks ago and was astonished at how busy it was. Don't think that they will have major probs filling it to be honest

with the finally announced interline deal between EI/RE, Arann should have been ready to roll to go back into Shannon-Dublin (again) but here's MOL queering the pitch.

Not wishing to burst anyones bubble, but the announcement of 3 times a week to SNN is hardly the precursor to a base in LBA. On the same principle a similar launch from MAN last year would have indicated they could expect more!
As for would a base in LBA hurt MAN, probably not so much now there are already options available from other airports anyway, MAN focus has to be more on the longhaul than shorthaul anyway.
