Lübeck

Appartently Airport Weeze are a potential investor for Lübeck airport - if the city of Lübeck sell.
I can only imagine Weeze being interested if Ryanair create a base in Lübeck - as initially planned 3 years ago?

Row over ID on Italian domestic flights resolved

... or so it seems:

"Ryanair (blah blah) announced that it would restore all its Italian domestic flights – without interruption – from January 23rd next, as Ryanair and ENAC today reached agreement that all passengers intending to travel on Ryanair’s domestic Italian flights will provide either a passport or valid EU/EEA National Identity Card in full compliance with the security requirements, which apply on all Ryanair flights across the EU."

The data to back up or rubbish my predition will be in the q3 report on the 2nd Feb 2010. I suspect in Q3 Ryanair will have made very little profit. Next year it will have to pay $100 extra per tonne of fuel and will be loss making in the winter (but profitable in the summer). When jet fuel goes back to well over $1000 ryanair could make loss over all on each year. That is why it is not ordering more planes.

Is this true? I do not often fly RYR, and not UK domestic. As UK has no national ID cards, and as many people, in UK & in EU Schengen countries, do not have/need passports, how do they travel STN - EDI for exampe? Perhaps they can not. I suppose the same is true for internal flights in Spain as Italy? What solution do non passport holding UK citizens have for their internal flights?

This may help you with regard to UK citizens not owning a passport - sadly, no hope until 2012!

You stated they not getting them as fact so now its a prediction

Given that on each occasion they produce results you start with the premise they are going bust or will go bust soon I think Mystic Meg is a better predictor.

So NO CHANGE from current rules then.

National Identity Card

I feel so comfortable travelling with my European ID card as it's very practical and fits everywhere. In fact, I thought every EU citizen already could have one...
Nice to hear that you will be able to use your own cards, I believe it's a nifty solution for UK citizens too.

Will He, Won't He?

According to this article from today's Irish Independent the 3rd Aer Lingus bid is unlikely to happen.

Not spending money on planes- no expansion!

MOL will either occupy himself by taking over Aerlingus or he'll retire!!!

Just out of interest if Ryanair was to buy EI, how many slots does it have at LHR? Would Ryanair sell them or rent them? Also would FR use it to get into LGW as a base, over the last few months we have seen FR add routes to LGW from its european bases.

Before the end of this year the local airport in Lelystad, a small Dutch town, will become operational after an expansion. The authorities announced today that they have also initiated talks with Ryanair to include the airport into its network. After the enlargement the runway at LEY/EHLE will be 2100m (6,890 ft) long, its facilities will be able to handle approximately 2 million passengers per year. Lelystad is situated just 60 km from Amsterdam on the seabed of the former Zuidersee.

Lelystad

Goodness, if these 'talks' come true, expect a fanfare...

NEW ROUTES TO...AMSTERDAM (Lelystad)

Well, it's about time FR started eating at the Amsterdam (area) market; I guess they're thinking the same by avoiding AMS' charges, and cleverly so!

I suppose it won't be this decade that Lelystad is operational with a longer runway and a bigger passenger terminal.

Hmm, wouldn't Rotterdam be as convenient? I seem to recall that Basiqair couldn't make that one work...
