Ryanair bases?
Can anyone enlighten me?
Ryanair operate more than one route from Stansted, Charleroi, Shannon, Hahn, Prestwick and Dublin. What I would like to know is: - Do Ryanair have aircraft based at each of these locations? - If so, how many? - Are flights ever carried out on a 'W' basis, ie. STN-PIK-DUB-PIK-STN? Would these be crewed by the same crew for all the legs? - If there are bases at Hahn and Charleroi, are these crewed by Belgians and Germans, or by UK/Ireland Ryanair crews in hotels etc? Just something I've wondered about Thanks Landing_24R |
Yes, there are aircraft based at each of these airport and it splits up as follows:
DUB: 9 B737-200 SNN: 1 B737-200 STN: 7 B737-200, 19 B737-800 PIK: 2 B737-200 CRL: 2 B737-200 HHN: 4 B737-800 All flights start and end at the respective base but aircraft do swap around with crew then being transported back to their base as pax. It is usual to do 4 sectors per flying day. Just because CRL and HHN are abroad does not necessarily mean foreign crew. The majority of cabin crew is Belgian and German respectively but there are also British and Irish people there. The pilots, like at the other bases are a mix of nationalities like Irish, British, Dutch, German, Yugoslavian, etc. They don't stay in hotels, they just live there normally as they would somewhere else. |
Thanks for that FI, much appreciated.
