Anyone on this thread know if there is any press release planned at Belfast any time soon for the planned Ryanair return?

Ryanair will return to Belfast starting in March with a route to London Gatwick.

Timisoara

Announcing a new base and routes that will not start for another 10 months seems a little surprising - routes targeted at migrant labour don't usually get heavily booked up so far in advance. Is there perhaps some sort of pre-emptive land grab going on, to persuade another airline that opening up routes at Timisoara would be a bad idea ?

Ryanair, Europe’s favourite airline, today (15 Jan) announced further expansion to its Stansted Summer 2016 schedule.
A new route to Palanga in Lithuania.

[nwoody2001]

.... direct competition with Wizz?? Wizz currently only have 1 route from Palanga, guess where to...? Luton!!!

[daz211]

Looks like Ryanair are going after Wizz with the last two announced routes/base.

[RAT 5]

Is it still the case that one of the largest shareholders in Wizzair is also in RYR? Big dog eat small dog, or might there be a merger, or is someone hedging bets?

[Shamrock350]

Well Ryanair dropped Luton to Kaunas in favour of Vilnius from this summer putting them in competition with Wizz, meanwhile Wizz announced Palanga and quickly followed with their own Luton to Kaunas service, replacing Ryanair on the route. This also makes Wizz the only other scheduled airline to Kaunas other than Ryanair so it looks like the battle is hotting up between them, at least in Lithuanian skies.

There isn't another 40 million PAX growth out there without taking this from the competition.

New routes

Ryanair, today (26 Jan) announced flights at Toulouse Blagnac (its 32nd French airport) with 7 routes to/from Berlin, Brussels, Fez, London Stansted, Madrid, Malta and Warsaw from November 2016.

[davidjohnson6]

Will Carcassonne, Lourdes or (what's left of) Rodez now be de-emphasised ?

[james170969]

Apparently Michael O'Leary is hosting a conference in Brussels tomorrow. Hopefully he'll include a new route to Glasgow / Prestwick at reasonable times. The only flights to Belgium from Scotland are from Edinburgh.

Move on, nothing to see here....

en France, situé dans le Nord de Paris: l'aéroport de Beauvais-Tillé, qui dessert plus de soixante destinations. Il se hisse à la première place dans le classement des pires aéroports européens où passer la nuit et à la seconde au niveau international. Il se retrouve également dixième dans le classement des pires aéroports dans le monde (il occupait la 6e place en 2014).


La plupart des milliers de personnes qui sont passées par cette piste picarde déplorent l'absence de chaises, le manque d'amabilité du personnel et de confort des lieux, ainsi que des normes d'hygiène insuffisantes dans les toilettes. Certains se déclarent également surpris de la distance à parcourir jusqu'à la capitale (environ 75 kilomètres et 1h30 de navette ou de tramsport privé en moyenne). Quant à l'accès au wi-fi, il ne semble pas si simple.

Also postable in "Beauvais"


The gist - Beauvais has been voted the worst Airport in Europe for staying the night (formally it is closed 00.00 to 06.00). In addition, thousands of the respondants to the survey said the staff were rude, toilets were poor, etc.
