And from ACE only 5 routes (for the moment) are impacted

Berlin-SXF
Knock
Newcastle
rome-FCO
Valencia

Just been checking ACE, seems to have come off light at present compared with TFS and LPA although NOC will really be missed, notice BFS still on sale, weekly on a Sat after Jan so if its going to operate will be interesting to see how, with no base at ACE or BFS?

This winter GRO base will be running with 1A/C (since few years now) and 7 routes

Alghero (Tue,Thu,Sat)
Bremen (Wed,Sun)
Eindhoven (Wed,Thu,Sat,Sun)
Karlsruhe (Thu,Sun)
Krakow (Tue, Sat with Krk plane)
Pisa (Mon,Wed,Thu with Psa plane,Fri,Sat,Sun with Psa plane)
rabat (Mon,Fri)

No departure on monday and friday during the morning!
On Tuesday only 2 flights with the rotation AHO-KrK departure 1200L and back at 2110L

5 nov the base is closing

Where is it written that the base is closing?

That's within the 90 day consultation period, so must've have been confirmed by now if that's the case. Anything official been released?

Anyone know whats happening with the Edinburgh base?

Impressive holding yesterday on FR4539 between AGP and TTU. I believe it's RYR's shortest scheduled sector at only 88 nautical miles.

Typically a 20 minute flight, they went into a hold for over 2 hours before diverting to TNG!

OMG ! do you know the Reason ?

like in terms of route closures and where based planes will be flying, I'm sure there is set to be 8 based this winter.

So after an hard work here's the winter scheduled for EDI
Not sure about the combinaison of flights and the using of the A/C but i think you can have the big picture

Thank you for that appreciate it, will be a bit fuller though as Bucharest to be added 3x per week and Budapest will be daily this winter along with Warsaw becoming 5x weekly so yeah looking likely there will be 8 aircraft. Thanks again.

you re welcome ! I checked every single day ! in fact I put only flights operated by EDI planes ! OTP will be done by OTP A/C , the remaining flights for BUD its done by BUD the same for WMI , POZ..........

Ah ok, must still be a few changes yet then as aircraft look quiet on certain days, Im expecting further changes soon then.

Thanks for putting that together, CCF, really useful and interesting stuff. Just a quick question: what does the ''CPH-NTE (0620-1455)'' mean? W-pattern Edinburgh - Copenhagen - Nantes and back?

Ryanair today canceled Faro-Bremen and maybe other Faro based flights after January 7. But Faro-Edinburgh still on sale with Faro based schedule.

Cheers Basil .

Edinburgh - Bydgoszcz

2pw

Opens March 2020

Seven additional days of strike action announced by BALPA for late September. It looks as though the previous strike action had little or no effect on pax.

All GDN and WMI flights will be done by RYR SUN

Ryanair has taken off sale 6+ routes from Leeds/Bradford and it looks like the base is being reduced from 3 to 2 based aircraft from end of October/Start of the Winter 2019/2020 schedule.

Routes Dropped
Vilnius = Last flight November 4th 2019
Faro = Last flight November 4th 2019
Fuerteventura = Last Flight November 5th 2019
Gran Canaria = Last flight October 31st 2019
Lanzarote = Last flight January 5th 2020
Murcia Corvera = Last flight October 29th 2019

Routes still operating
Dublin = Remains 13x weekly (2x daily Mon-Sat & 1x Sun)
Riga = Remains 2x weekly (Thu & Sun)
Malta Luqa = Remains 2x weekly (Wed & Sat)
Gdansk = Remains 3x weekly (Mon, Fri & Sun) Mon/Fri flights operated by Ryanairsun
Krakow = Remains 4x weekly (Tue, Thu, Sat & Sun) Tue flight operated by Ryanairsun
Warsaw Modlin = Remains 2x weekly (Thu & Sun)
Wroclaw = Remains 2x weekly (Mon & Fri) both flights operated by Ryanairsun
Bratislava = Remains 2x weekly (Mon & Fri)
Alicante = Increased from 4x to 6x weekly (Mon, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat & Sun) - Wed,Thu,Sun flights operated by Alicante based aircraft
Malaga = Decresed from 4x to 3x weekly (Mon, Wed & Fri)
Tenerife South = Remains 3x weekly (Tue, Thu & Sat)

Comparing the schedules in November and in January;
FAO is 6x based in November and down to 3x based aircraft in January
TFS is 6x based in November and closes at the beginning of January
LPA is 4x based in November and closes at the beginning of January
ACE is 2x based in November and closes at the beginning of January

BFS seems to close at the beginning of November, however at the moment the timings of 1x AGP and 2x STN flights are showing as operated by a BFS based aircraft. I'm assuming this will change over the coming weeks rather than have 1x aircraft operate 3x flights a week!

Neither can I.
Some kind of pre-Brexit strategy or simply even lower costs RYR??

Can't see Brexit having anything to do with it as they are an Irish Airline, not British.
Likely to do with labour costs/terms.
Is anyone able to access the article and repost?

Faro base to stay open (reduced from 3 to 2 aircraft) after an agreement with the airport and agreement of seasonal contracts with staff.

so if this is the case its nothing to do with max delay issues and just to do with the wonga??

NEW ROUTE

Frankfurt-Hahn (HHN) to Nis (INI)

2pw begins 13 January 2020

Just when you thought MOL and Ryanair couldn't slump any further downward they go and do this.

Ryanair has written to UK pilots based at Manchester, London Stansted and other UK airports urging them to take unpaid leave for up to 12 months, transfer to other bases abroad or they could otherwise join the 9,000 job losses at Thomas Cook.

https://www.theguardian.com/business...ace-job-losses

I had recently started using them since I thought their employee relations was going to improve. Seemingly this is not the case so I'll take my money and my principles elsewhere
