Ryanair - 9

[davidjohnson6]

The reports from the Warsaw Business Journal looks wrong - 1.22m passengers per year giving 28.11 % market share implies Poland in 2012 had only 4.3m air passengers for the duration of 2012
Warsaw (not Modlin) alone had almost 10m passengers in 2012

Update - Warsaw Business Journal seem to have amended their online article to read Q1 2013 rather than full year 2012

That table where they sourced the data from is for the first quarter of each year.

I don't know where that particular publication sourced it from but I've seen this news article in various places which clearly states it's from Q1.

Well indeed, total number of pax in PL in 2012 amounted to 24 435 557 (according to Polish CAA). Looks like a very "creative" journalists' approach to the statistics - but supposedly FR was the number one in Poland last year anyway.

Ryanair in Poland

Hello,

For those that are interested, the official Polish CAA statistics are published here:
Urz?d Lotnictwa Cywilnego

The 2012 figures by airline are here: http://www.ulc.gov.pl/_download/regu...w_4_2012_j.pdf (page 2 for the annual figures, page 1 for Q4).
Ryanair were number two in 2012, over 1.1 million passengers behind LOT. However, Ryanair's growth in Poland accelerated in the second half of 2012, with the new Modlin routes being introduced (although they are now at Chopin for the time being).

The Q1 2013 figures by airline are here:
http://www.ulc.gov.pl/_download/regu..._j_2013_1q.pdf.
It's true, Ryanair have just squeezed past LOT and carried more passengers for the first time in this quarter. With the opening of the Krakow base, capacity cuts by LOT and a lack of growth in Poland from Wizzair, it seems likely that they will retain that position for the rest of the year at least.

Lisbon a new Ryanair base?

Ryanair did say by 2014 they wanted a base in LIS.

119 - I'm glad it amused you!

I'll say it once again and apologise for clearly upsetting some people.
My badly judged 'Ryanair' comment was in response to fepilot's comment 'Instructor jobs/ ryanair etc are an option of course'.

Still waiting for STN-SZG to go on sale this winter...surely they haven't dropped it. Don't want to have to use Easy at LGW and start my ski trip in a queue at the Dartford crossing.

[FRatSTN]

Is still a list of routes not yet available from Stansted, I'd hang on in there a bit longer if I were you. It tends to be Tuesdays-Thursday's that they put routes on sale, so maybe in the next few days?

Ryanair are the most inflexible airline, I have just payed through the roof to reschedule a flight that I missed which I had no control over, they need to be a little more flexible given the circumstances. All I was told was to write to customer relations and see if they will give a refund.

It was a last minute booking and never again will I book with them, other carriers in DUB were doing everything possible to help passengers.

This is the nature of the beast though, t'has always been so.

[ScotsSLF]

Just flown FR for the first time in three years. Flew PIK - FAO - PIK - both flights bang on time; brand new aircraft; Portugese crew were friendly and efficient and the flights were cheaper than the EZY equivalent from GLA. I am a regular BA flyer and to be honest the queueing was no worse than BA and actually the scramble for locker space was less than I usually experience on the shuttle! On this occasion - well done FR.

Now I'll admit they are a less flexible airline than BA but they do highlight and emphasise their T&C's quite strongly so people really need to read these before they start to moan and complain. As they say - you get what you pay for - and if you break the rules expect to pay a lot more.

Winter freeze for KUN?

Hi Folks,

Anyone's aware of what's going on with winter schedule from KUN? We've been thru some word fighting between Lithuania transport minister and Ryanair officials during last three months. While ticket sales from VNO are all loaded for winter months, we only have BRS available from KUN. Even STN and DUB - these bring higher yields from KUN than VNO - are unavailable.
Looks Ryanair'ish style of bull****...

You don't have any previous posts?

4 Ryanair aircraft declare fuel emergency at same time

You don't have any previous posts?

Possibly a condition of an agreement.

Also posts by others who have "ran into difficulties" are no longer visible either so likely they were removed.
