Ryanair

It's possible that Ryanair might be reopening thier bases in Tenerife and Lanzarote so maybe Tenerife returning in the future might be possible!

It would be great for CWL if that was to happen.

Looks like the TFS route went to BRS instead.

Ryanair already operate Tenerife from Bristol and originally they started it at CWL as a winter route I believe so always a possibility for next winter!

I’m sure FR remember how well their TFS route did from CWL!

Let’s hope they do and get the route up and running for the summer.

Ryanair announces more flights from Cardiff Airport

There will be more flights to Ireland and Spain

It's good to see CWL publishing these announcements, they have made the two main travel industry weekly editions plus Wales on line.

AGP is finally bookable on the Ryanair app!

 

[Jerry]

Good news that Malaga is now bookable on the app. Unfortunately CWL didn't get anything new in Ryanair's route release today.

Things seem to be getting better and better for Cardiff!

 

[Jerry]

Well didn't see Belfast coming! Good news to see them adding more but personally I was hoping they'd go for Cork. Let's hope it doesn't drive Aer Lingus away.

 

[MrFenner]

The fares will definitely encourage passengers on board versus EIR.

But not sure CWL needs a duplicate route in these times - a whole new route would’ve been ideal.

Good to see more commitment from FR though nonetheless

 

[Jerry]

It does mean that for Summer 2023 Belfast will have 9 weekly departures 7 from Aer Lingus and 2 from Ryanair.

Makes me wonder if we could end seeing them launching Edinburgh as well?

 

[CWL94]

I agree that EDI should be the next target for FR!

LM havnt shown any indication of increasing frequency and did earlier for EXT and SOU!

FR just recently announced BOH-EDI on EDI a/c so not out of the question!

Back in the BE days, we was getting 100k plus on EDI, as it stands this year we are projecting just under 20k!

Maybe Loganair are happy with the money they make on the present number of flights.

They may well be and they may not have the means to add extra frequency even if they wanted to and that's the dilmena for CWL if it wants to get it's passenger numbers back to pre covid levels. Edinburgh was one of it's major top 5 routes and now it's not even potentially going to even get 50% of those pre pandemic numbers back.

It seems similar to the LBA schedule with Easyjet. 3 airlines doing Belfast (2 to city and 1 to international) and all still operating on as far as I know so can’t see why it can’t from CWL with both Belfast airport options.
