Additional remark: because the cancellation is given more then two weeks before departure, Ryanair doesn't has to pay the indemnity (250-600). But all other obligations from EU Rule 261/2004 for cancelled flights remain.Passenger wrote: ↑10 Jul 2017, 21:40For the zillionth time, mister O'Leary: European legislation (EU Rule 261/2004) says that is up to the passengers to decide what they want: a refund or a rebooking. When a passenger with a confirmed FR-booking to and/or from Kiev wants a rebooking, Ryanair must arrange this. Including the transfers between the new airport and Kiev. Including hotel accommodation when that becomes necessary.wrote:Ryanair sincerely apologises to the many customers who have booked low fare flights to/from the Ukraine, all of whom will be contacted by email and refunded for their cancelled flights.

Re: Ryanair in 2017
Ryanair is interested in the B737-10 "at the right price”, with the -10 possibly making up about 25% of the Ryanair fleet in the longer term.
In a move similar to easyJet, Ryanair plans to flood 72 of its bases in continental Europe and Ireland with 85 UK-based B737-800s, in the event of a hard Brexit. If there is no clear agreement by September 2018, the carrier plans to remove many flights to and from England in summer 2019.

Ryanair says its Frankfurt Main base will increase from two to seven aircraft in September 2017. Carrier will launch two new bases in Memmingen Munich and Poznan in the autumn and open 170 new routes for winter 2017/18.
Ryanair also says that its five B737 MAX 200s from June 2017 order will be delivered in spring 2019 and the remaining five in spring 2020. In addition, the carrier recently agreed on extensions of 10 operating leases, with three more aircraft for summer 2018 and 10 for summer 2019.

Re: Ryanair in 2017
180 passengers had a very bad surprise on Monday 24 July afternoon. Their flight FR4567 back to Brussels South Charleroi (CRL) from Figari, Corsica (FSC) was cancelled. The incoming flight FR4566 Charleroi-Figari had been diverted to Bastia (BIA) because of a forest fire. And instead of finding an alternative for the passengers, Ryanair left them alone to find a solution.

“This flight from Figari to Brussels Charleroi (24 Jul) was regrettably cancelled after the inbound aircraft was unable to land at Figari due to strong winds. Affected customers were provided with refreshment vouchers and overnight hotel accommodation and boarded a replacement flight which departed to Brussels the following day. Ryanair sincerely apologised to all customers affected by this cancellation.”
Re: Ryanair in 2017
But why the hell doesn't Ryanair explain why the aircraft actually flew to Figari later that day, and then (empty?) to Charleroi the same evening, as shown on flightradar24.com?luchtzak wrote: ↑26 Jul 2017, 14:31Ryanair statement:luchtzak wrote: ↑25 Jul 2017, 15:15 180 passengers had a very bad surprise on Monday 24 July afternoon.

Re: Ryanair in 2017
Was wondering if it was an article of last year but apparently it's not.
The date could also be interpreted as June 7, 2016 but even then it would be out of date today
Back in the old days we learned at school that the correct writing of a date was year-month-day but I guess these days day-month-year is used mostly though me personally am always using YYYY-MM-DD, but I guess it's a (bad?) habbit.

I'm hybrid, in text I use DD/MM/YYYY in filenames YYYMMDD, better for sorting!
And then there's the US of A: MM DD YYYY! I once almost ended up in trouble because of this at MSP. At the security check a TSA official told me my passport had expired a month before as it expired on 03 11 2012, March 11th for him, 3rd of November for the rest of the world. I explained this to him, explained that otherwise Border Security wouldnl;t have klet me in the US, but he wouldn't believe me. In the end he called in a supervisor who said something like "The Belgian's right, the whole world does it right, we're the only country who does it wrong." Our TSA official replyed "Guess I learnt something today, have a nice flight!"
Cheers,

Re: Ryanair in 2017
I was just wondering. Ryanair doesn't fly to Berlin Tegel, right? It flies only to Schönefeld. Then why does it insist that Tegel should not be abandoned when the new Berlin Brandenburg airport enters into service in 20** ?
Yesterday in Berlin Charlottenburg, I took this picture in the middle of one of the main boulevards:
It seems that there will be a referendum on 24 September asking to maintain Tegel. Ryanair asks people to vote yes. Why? Does it fear competition at the new airport?

Re: Ryanair in 2017
It seems to me that with its numerous parallel runways BBI (or BER) has the possibility to accept all the traffic predicted for the years to come. Furthermore, a single airport makes transfers easier. Oh yes, I remember: no transfers on Ryanair... (except in Italy).

Re: Ryanair in 2017
Ryanair chief executive Michael O’Leary expects there will be just five European airlines in 2022 — Ryanair (Ireland), easyJet (UK), Lufthansa (Germany), Air France KLM, and IAG (UK) — as competition will force mergers or lead to closures.
Is it a coincidence? These are the 5 founding members of Airlines for Europe (A4E).
