Didn't FR fly NCL-BGY about 10 years ago? I remember looking at going in my student days when they had £15rtn tickets!

Malpensa
Quite a few new routes moving right onto easyJet's existing market ex Malpensa, like Catania with 5 flights a day v easyJet's 4. Brussels BRU is a significant jump also in capacity on the route, with both carriers with 2 daily in each direction.
Malpensa is a very significant base of some scale for easyJet and this would appear to be the first major signal of intent of a move onto easyJet routes ex MXP, of which easyJet has 57 from the airport. Ryanair will now have a total of 8 routes from MXP.
It would appear that the challenge that Ryanair is putting up to easyJet is intensifying across the network...

Interesting that FR will create a base in Nurnberg - having currently only 3 destinations from the airport coming from a high of 6 routes. I can only see one aircraft being based here. I would have though Memmingen would be more appropriate. Any news if Munich will be added to route network and when Hamburg will be confirmed as a base?

Ryanair will close two of its 15 Italian bases, Alghero and Pescara, and move its aircraft, pilots and crews to other countries due to an increase in taxes. Maybe these aircraft are off to Hamburg, Nurnberg, Sofia and Bucharest.

You make a lot of posts about Ryanair? Why is that?
If he is knowledgable about the subject why shouldn't he contribute? That's what the forum exists for. His latest post is informative and on-topic.

Where did you read anything about STN-AMS? MOL named Stansted as a likely destination to be offered from Amsterdam, but nothing official, right?

"Bags are not available for this trip"
What's that about? Are they seriously trying to see if they can run flights without carrying hold luggage? Or are they hoping you'll book the flight without knowing how much you'll have to pay for the bag later?
