Brescia versus Verona
Are those Verona routes replacing or supplementing Brescia flights. Rather odd that the two FR routes from VBS are Cagliari and Stansted
Al Catullo inizia l’era Ryanair A Parigi e Londra per pochi euro - Corriere del Veneto
I'm guessing Stansted - Verona will also replace Stansted - Brescia and that Brescia will disappear from the Ryanair route map come winter

A bit of a shame for the good folk of Brescia who've supported the route for so long. But my understanding is that both Verona and Brescia airports are under the same ownership so I suppose they're gtting a bit more desperate for business at the former and are willing to focus on just cargo at the latter.

Valencia base to reopen, possible Union problems at CPH
There was a strong persistant rumour amongst crews that Valencia was to reopen and this seems to be quite likely as Cabin Crew who were previously based there have been contacted to express an interest in returning possibly in October should the base reopen.
Apparently the fuel and handling companies in CPH are trying to resist supplying any services to Ryanair as a non union/anti union airline. This may or may not be legal under Danish law and is I believe one if not more of the major barriers to this base happening.

It would appear that Ryanair are increasingly focusing on profitability than growth, the number of Ryanair aircraft parked up for a large part of the day (June is a slow month) at airport around Europe is the most i have ever seen.
I have no doubt that they will be flying their socks of in July/Aug/September but with more and more paid by the block hour pilots it must be of concern about income levels in the shoulder and winter periods.
I spoke with one pilot who had lost 7 sectors to training requirement in one month at a cost of over £1500.00 with no compensation (what did he expect?)
I think that they will be very profitable this year maybe as much $1.5bn so it shows you can make money in aviation if you think outside the box

In response to the question re mortgages etc...
Personally I have never had any problems. At the initial application stage the 'self employed' status has caused concerns, but Brookfield have been happy to provide references as to the nature of my employment and following this I have never had any problems.

Funny how you list every other country separately, but for some reason group Britain & Ireland together?
It seems that PIK is about to lose it's last UK Domestic as the STN route is being dumped at the end of the summer season. From ten flights daily to squawt in a few years. What a shame.

we are having problems filling the B738 on routes that traditionally are domestic or short-hops.
currently evaluating two options: 1) total withdrawal from short hop/domestic routes apart from IRE-GBR in favour of longer sectors in the short terms and 2) an additional fleet type such as Emb 195 or the MRJ90 but that would not be overnight for the shorter hops and to take over the IRE-GBR market eventually.
sorry for poorly written english, busy working lunch!

Ryanair 1
Just wondered on your views of the problem down at Bournemouth at the moment ?
What started as a big leap in faith by Ryanair with the airport placing CAT 3 landing in , and a new terminal at the airport and to have 2 based aircraft this summer with good loads to a range of popular sunny destinations in the med , to now possibly being prepared for a possible with drawl of the operation completely ?
Thanks in advance
