Any idea from which base the new EIN - IBZ and PMI flights are being operated from? Is it a new route daily from somewhere or the sign of a possible base in EIN?
I see that Marseille is still showing up as a route but has no available flights, perhaps the base will be re-established in time for summer and perhaps offer a daily flight arriving early in EIN in order to be available for 1040 the time on the different days that IBZ or PMI departs.
According to the schedule it doesnt seem that aircraft is coming from any of the existing destinations but maybe changes have to come
On a different note perhaps FR will announce base at LGW and offer an early morning departure to EIN that could operate a W.
RYANAIR stated last year that they will start serving primary airports in EU excluding CDG and LHR. As far as I can see there seems to be no signs of this yet (excluding the ones already operating). Surely by now we should be hearing about a raft of new bases?
No sign of CPH? LIS?

I'm RYR based in MAD- MAD is a good way to describe it all 
Any truth to LGW opening as a base?
edit- for jippy.
Regarding gates, I presume you mean an air bridge, finger dock and/or jetty. Everyone has to come through a gate, even if you walk onto the apron in stn to board an aircraft. Madrid for sure, Palma Mallorca we use one, I've had them attached in LGW as well, and I think valencia once. Madrid and Palma for sure 100% of the time you get them.

Oslo Rygge, Kaunas and Stockholm Skavsta have being reduced for Summer 2011.
Ryanair's new base in ACE from April is causing problems to people living on the island.
ACE airport operates between 07:00 - 00:00 daily but Ryanair want the airport open longer. Ryanair want operations at 06:00 - 01:30 and people on the island don't want this. No decision on the extended opening hours has being made and if it goes against Ryanair will the base open at all??
Ryanair are pulling out of Altenburg at the end of March.

Pardon me, I didn't understand. Are you saying all those routes ex Gatwick are being chopped?

Not a chance as Ryanair are dropping Milan BGY, Porto, Bologna and Faro. from the end of March.

Milan BGY, Porto, Bologna and Faro all dropped at the end of March.
All other routes will operate next summer but some will be reduced:
Oslo Rygge - 3 flights cut.
Kaunas - 2 flights cut.
Stockholm Skavsta - a reduction over summer 2010 but no sure how many flights.

A straight question for Ryanair
On 4th January after local media speculation Ryanair released a statement to Radio Foyle in Derry stating that the Derry-Alicante route would operate again this year but the flight cannot be booked, is not listed in drop downs and does not appear on the route map.
Why this inconsistency? Is the flight axed or not? A straight question. Any chance of a straight answer from someone in the know?

Flights from NQY to ALC 2011
If anyone has any info regarding the above, I would be most grateful.
Trying in vain to book said flights for my parents and booking engine not giving anything even though flights start summer 2011.
Does anybody have exact days when the service will operate
Thanks in anticipation!

Ryanair staff/contractor ratio
Hi all,
I have a memory of reading (maybe here on pprune, but I can't find it) that RyanAir have a 50% ratio of contract to employees working on flights. Can anyone verify this? Is the ratio the same for both pilots and cabin crew?
Cheers,
Delight.

It depends on the base and time of the year for cabin crew. Most of the time its meant to be about 50:50 but seems to getting less and less on an fr contract. Look how much the company saved with the ash, crew on contracts still got a basic wage, but the agency n temps didnt get a cent. Some bases now have summer only temps. For those crew are on ryanair contract the wage is good, and those who aint well save some of your money in the summer.

not anymore, it was maybe 6 years ago when everybody got the Ryanair contract automatically after one year, some people after 6 months. But 3 years ago they stopped, so probably now its 70:30, and it's going to be less in the future i think.

Marseille
Did this occur then?
As discussion surrounding the closure of Ryanair's only French hub comes to a close, the low-cost airline shuts down its Marseille base today, Tuesday 11th January 2011. Following the commencement of legal proceedings against Ryanair's Marseille base regarding tax matters, the hub will be moved to competitor airports in Spain, Italy and Lithuania, with the result that 13 Marseille routes will be closed (see the list below). Ryanair will continue to operate 10 routes to/from Marseille Airport, on aircraft and crews that are based elsewhere.
The following 10 routes to continue are as follows:
Brussels
Dusseldorf
Fez
London
Madrid
Malta
Porto
Rome
Seville
Valencia

Ryanair don't operate any 'hubs' pabely. They operate bases. At doesn't make one iota of a difference to the travelling public at MRS where the aircraft are based once they have a service.

Sober Lark, this came from a press article so the words would be part of journalistic freedom.
I was more thinking about locally based crews and local T&C and the legal preceedings as well as the route reductions.
