UK Expansion for Ryanair & closure in Europe

Two new routes, from Leeds Bradford International Airport are planned to start this winter. They are going to fly to Girona four times a week and Alicante three times a week. However, in the same press release it was announced that they are temporarily suspending flights for a period between 4th November and 19th December at seven European airports.

Deputy chief executive Michael Cawley said: “We very much regret temporarily closing our operations at these airports during this November and December period. However, a combination of high airport charges and the massive increases which we face in fuel prices, makes it more profitable for Ryanair to ground aircraft rather than fly them at these airports during this period.”
