The airport said they was in talks over a new contract and was positive a new deal will be reached and had already overcome some issues so you’d like to think a announcement will be made soon
|
My guess is in relation to EMA there is a wider piece to this in terms of MAG. Give us the deal we want and we'll continue EMA, or don't and we'll do a huge deal with BHX for the EMA aircraft etc etc. Given that STN is in the mix, there likely is a wider dimension.
Ryanair have never been in a stronger negotiating position than they are now. |
Well in the world of media spin you would hardly expect the airport to come out with something along the lines of "we are in tough negotiations with the airline, and be sure that we're more than willing to walk away if they are not prepared to pay a reasonable price to operate from here". To do so would ensure prospective passengers would give up waiting and book via another carrier, or from another airport.
|
On the other hand MAG may have decided that the airport is nicely viable with AYR cargo services and seasonal passenger flights are not worth the hassle. If airlines want to pay realistic fees, then they're welcome. Remember that there will only be modest income from catering and other franchises.
|
I am in no way party to the P+L accounts of EMA as part of MAG, but I reckon your analysis is spot on. It's not to say EMA doesn't want to keep Ryanair, but given the diverse nature of the airport's business model, which is almost unique in UK, they probably fell they are in a much stronger position than almost all other regional airports as the UK exists the Covid driven retrenchment of the last 18 months / 2 years. Ryanair probably aren't familiar with a situation where they are negotiating with equals, and probably don't like it.
|
Don’t forget MAG went through a similar loop with Ryanair at Manchester a few years ago. O’Leary took his toys away for a while, but have come back and then some.
|
It should be remembered that Manchester is the dominant city in north west England. I don't believe EMA is the main airport for the dominant city in the midlands
If BHX can do a good-enough deal with FR, it may well be in Ryanair's long term interest to shift their flying slightly more in Birmingham's favour |
Whether it would be in the best interests of BHX may be altogether another question!
|
I would imagine Ryanair may be welcomed by BHX because of the loss of Flybe, Monarch and TCX.
|
Not sure Jet2, Easyjet or TUI would agree!
|
3 new twice weekly routes for Manchester:
Lviv, Ukraine Warsaw Modlin Wroclaw |
Warsaw Modlin and Wroclaw are already served, but might be new for the winter.
|
East Midlands flights now on sale up until end of March.
|
Dont think they are anymore

Does Ryanair still adhere (largely) to a no-overbooking rule, or has thought been given to maybe doing it to a modest and non-trivial degree ? The only case I know of was max 6 pax in the morning on STN-DUB pre Covid when there were maybe 9 flights per day
I'm aware Easyjet has definitely and deliberately overbooked in the past and I got on a flight on more than 1 occasion only because of checked in pax not showing up at the gate. I've been on an overbooked Wizz flight once, but not sure if that was deliberate or just accident I ask particularly because Covid has presumably led to a higher level of noshows because of pax getting last minute nerves about high levels of cases when travelling away from home Note - I'm not looking for a discussion about whether overbooking should be legal or not - that topic has been discussed endlessly on the web already |
Are there no based flights from Ryanair out of EMA today (Tuesday)
Is the base closing? |
Ryanair make more threats than the French and like the French it is always someone else’s fault.
|
A majority of winter ops for Ryanair out of East Midlands mid week are operated by non based A/C.
All S22 flights out of East Midlands are now available up until end of October 22. |

Ryanair banging out the winter 2021/22 and summer 22 schedules, great news!
But they also seem to be changing the timings of their schedules. In the past 2 weeks I’ve had 5 flights re-scheduled, for travel in December and January. 2 of them moved by 24hrs later than originally scheduled. Little flexibility as usual, can only get the free flight change fee until end of this year for the December flights. Or for the January flight, it’s one day before or after to change. Waiting for 30 mins via the live chat on Ryanair website so temporarily given up for now… |
New COVID tests prior to arrival In Ireland is spectacular political arse licking to the UK common travel area. We’ll be injecting ourselves with top up vaccines on a daily basis soon if no one stops to question the sanity of our leaders. Some here in ROI follow it hook line and sinker. I’m a SLF and just want to get on with my life, travel and those who get me to where I want to go need security of employment. I’m just fed up with all this crap and I’m going to fly. life’s too short to let others control it.

wow ! Thank God your in the minority,because if we were all like you there would be so many cases of covid and everything would be at a standstill ! |
RW20, The vast majority of my annual air travel is on Ryanair. WHO believes that travel restrictions are ineffective in most situations and that domestic measures to contain outbreaks (such as testing, isolating the sick and contract tracing or social distancing) are far more important. I'm triple vaccinated as of today and the leaflet I was handed prior to vaccination stated ' We have less information on the safety of the booster dose of COVID-19 Vaccine'. It's a risk I'm prepared to take for the common good, but today the Irish Gov (as in the UK) have stated I must get a professional PCR or Antigen test 72 hours before travel. All that proves is at the point the test was taken I was negative. So what happens in the 71 hours after that, I can go anywhere, do anything and just show them I was (past tense) negative. Its a farce. We have to learn to live with it and get on with our lives. The financial impact to the aviation industry has been huge and the opening of the skies has taken another blow. Before vaccine was available PCR was a requirement. Now I'm fully vaccinated PCR has become a requirement (you're effectively rewarding those who didn't take the risk of vaccination) and uncertainty has to be factored into my travel costs. Sure the aviation industry will have risk management in place that is creating opportunity, but don't deny me and others like me of my evolving needs for air travel by adding unnecessary blocks and costs to travel.

sober lark
you are supposed to isolate for the 71 hours before flying. |
Greetings.
I had my assessment with Ryanair first week of April and, to my disappointment (or luck, maybe fate is trying to tell me something here) I was unsuccessful. My understanding is that after 6 months from the assessment we are entitled to apply again, but so far I haven’t been able to apply via the career page and any email I was in contact with doesn’t reply anymore. I also tried contacting them on Linkedin, with no luck. Is anybody in my same position? |

Anyone know why Ryanair continue to sell flights from Kherson in southern Ukraine to Krakow and Vienna, with a start date of 01-February-2022 ?
Apart from the risk of bullets flying due to Russian troops in neighbourging Crimea invading Ukraine.... there has been major building works at Kherson's airport during the autumn and the Ukrainian press indicates the airport is not ready to accept 150-seat aircraft before March - all the other airlines who intend to fly to Kherson have set a start date of 27-March-2022 |
Can someone please explain to me how Ryanair can advertise their cheap flights on TV and place a “zero flight change” fee on the screen when they continue to charge £45 per flight?!
I was able to change some flights last month to 2 days prior to my initial departure & arrival with no fee, however, when trying the same thing now I encounter a £90 fee!! |

New flights from Kiev:

New routes from Hahn (maybe due to closure of Fra base)
Alicante Barcelona Bergamo Catania Corfu Dublin Faro London/STN Zadar All begins between March and June 2022 |
Not 'maybe' it is due to FRA closure. Flights have some flight numbers as currently used from FRA.
Possible closure of Moroccan flights Exclusif: la compagnie aérienne Ryanair se retire définitivement du Maroc ? Maghreb Intelligence 33rd aircraft for Dublin https://corporate.ryanair.com/news/r...ule/?market=ie Sevilla will be reduced to 4 aircraft next summer and routes to BRS, BUD and FKB will be cancelled. There might be more reductions for Spain and Germany on the cards https://www.reuters.com/business/aer...er-2022-01-20/ He said however that he expected fewer aircraft to be based in Spain and significantly fewer in Germany due to airport costs. |
