Impossible. The ANR runway is not long enough to allow the take-off of a fully loaded B737.

The first thought of RYR was indeed to establish its Belgian hub @ EBAW, but after seeing that poor short rwy, they moved to EBCI.

Maybe that was there first thought but than for some reason they decided to go for the lowest bidder !!!!! what a drastic chance ?.

i wrote in the newspaper that ostend airport is talking to vlm and virgin-express to open a line from ostend to london city airport. :kvole:
and I hope it will open soon after the shut down of the ryanair flights.

I have to correct myself, Ryanair didn't go for the lowest bidder but the highest

Ha....

It would indeed be nice to see FR coming back to EBOS.

I agree, but don't forget that FR needs a LF of nearly 100% to make profit....

Why not OST-CRL It's the same distance as OST-STN...

That would be great.
