Ryanair grows at LPL and MAN
Not been so many foreign registered aircraft with the same tail markings over the North West since 1940. Hope they all land at the right airport!
3 North West airports in 2013, adding 1m new passengers and a total of 9 new routes at Manchester, Liverpool and East Midlands airports, which will sustain up to 1,000 new jobs*
I know it's Ryanair but East Midlands? North West airport??

Birmingham North East anyone?

Be interesting to see if it happens, but then I already smell vermin.
As for Trans-Atlantic routes, how popular was the GSM attempt again?

No news really is no news....
so there appears to be a bit of ecitement about a couple of lazy articles from the Liverpool papers.... how many times has this been trotted out before. What airports AREN'T actually targeting transatlantic routes???
There was much fanfare on here about an imminent announcement from two other airlines.... the reality is nothing substansive other than some sloppy journalism!
I can't wait for the day when there actually is something to report from LPL

This is what I read...
Ryanair has also seen passenger levels fall as it cut back on frequencies and
routes, but, announcing two new summer routes last week for Liverpool, to
Croatia and Poland, and an increase in frequencies on existing services such as
Alicante, Malaga and Faro, Mr O’Leary revealed he has signed a growth agreement
with JLA that will bring further routes and an extra plane next summer, taking
its total jets based there to eight.
He said the expansion confirms Ryanair’s commitment to Liverpool “big time”
and added: “We’re going to add another aircraft there next year and two new
routes and 200,000 passengers next year, which is very important when Easyjet
are cutting flights there next year.”
And he insisted the Dublin-based airline’s cultivation of its operations at
its Manchester base will not be at the expense of Liverpool.
“We have a new growth agreement with the airport which we’re very pleased
with. We have a three-year plan that means we are going to grow from 2m to 3m
passengers at Liverpool.
“We expect both Liverpool and Manchester airports to grow equally next year.
Manchester will do about 2.4m passengers and Liverpool will do about 2.1m and we
expect both of them to grow to over 3m passengers over three years.”
...are we saying Ryanair signing a new agreement and stating they will add an extra aircraft is somehow not newsworthy ?

The trans-atlantic link seems to be related to talks with operators at Hamilton (also owned by Vantage), which for current passenger operations means Transat and WestJet.
The Hamilton arrivals/departures page on their website makes interesting reading - last time I saw a weeks worth of movements displayed like that it was on a blackboard at Coventry in the seventies...

A link to YHM ("Toronto South West") sounds progressive, hope something materialises!
