Most of the new Ukraine routes are for Ukrainians now working in Eastern Europe, especially Poland.
FR has also announced flights to Yerevan and Gyumri in Armenia. Many left because of what happened post Maidan and a desire by the Govt and paramilitaries to conscript people into their militias. Many people know the story about the last time there was men in Uniform doing forced military conscription and that was in 1941/42 by the Nazi's as anybody who knows Ukrainians living in UK from the period with testify to. |

Sounds like Ryanair are still willing to take a chance on a few 'middle-of-nowhere' destinations...

Eye-opening! (taken from ch-aviation)
Buzz, the wholly-owned Polish subsidiary of Ryanair Holdings, is set to increase its role in the group as it prepares to take over a further two Central European bases and potentially personnel from closing Spanish bases. Chief Executive Michał Kaczmarzyk told Polish aviation website Fly4Free that Buzz - which is in the process of rebranding from Ryanair Sun - will take over the operation of Ryanair bases at Prague Ruzyne and Sofia on November 1. The Irish LCC currently has five B737-800s based out of Prague and three out of Sofia. According to the ch-aviation capacities module, it operates 150 and 89 weekly scheduled departures out of the two capitals, respectively. As previously reported, Buzz will also take over the operation of Ryanair's Budapest base as of December 1, 2019. The Polish airline has a lower cost base than its Irish sister and is, therefore, able to more efficiently compete with Wizz Air. Buzz already operates all of Ryanair's bases in Poland; at Gdansk, Kraków, Poznan, Warsaw Modlin, and Wroclaw airports. Separately, Spanish media have reported that Ryanair offered 432 staff members, currently employed at four bases in the country which are due to be closed in early 2020, voluntary relocation to Croatia, Poland, or the United Kingdom as an alternative to layoffs. Those who choose to move to Croatia would be employed by Malta Air, another subsidiary of Ryanair, staff in Poland would be hired by Buzz, while employees who move to the UK would work for Ryanair UK. In any case, affected employees would lose their seniority benefits and terms guaranteed under Spanish labour law, labour union USO (Unión Sindical Obrera) said in a statement quoted by El Pais daily. Ryanair plans to close bases at Girona, Lanzarote, Tenerife Sur, and Las Palmas airports on January 8, 2020. |

Buzz aircraft (Polish-registered but Ryanair-liveried 737s) have operated the first two KRK-LTN services, but using an FR flight number. How far will Buzz go in separating itself from Ryanair - livery? - flight numbers? - website?

New route
Hahn to Banja-Luka ( 2pw Begins 3 February 2020) |
regarding the website for S20 in Girona , Eindhoven and Charleroi will be operating by A/C based at Girona ! 2 mornings departures ! are they going to change the scheduled ? or Girona will be again a base for summer season ?
|
So guessing then that Bournemouth could re appear on the route as 4 gaps still showing on the BOH timeline that would fit in ? |
22 B738s have been re-registered in Malta to date. Will these all wear Malta Air colours, or will the harp remain?

Flight - Ryanair axes bases as it trims Max fleet outlook again
It says it has revised its schedule to account for the absence of the aircraft, and says the delays to delivery will "necessitate" the closure of it bases in Nuremberg and Stockholm Skavsta in 2020. "We also expect to cut summer capacity in a number of other existing bases, and we are currently in discussions with our people, our unions, and our affected airports to finalise these minor reductions," says the carrier. Ryanair is trimming its passenger number outlook to 156 million for the year to 31 March 2021. |
Hadn't realised the scale of the transfers away from mainline, especially given the lack of new MAX deliveries :
EI- 369 82% SP- 32 7% 9H- 50 11% 18% of mainline has been "off-shored" which is way more than I had reckoned. Real pains as Ryanair really matures as a business, opportunities for real growth swapped for opportunities to cut costs further. #classicryanair |
