I'm wondering what the market is for SNN, I've never been to Limerick and don't know much about it . Whilst DUB and ORK are weekend break destination plus VFR and Business traffic. I don't know if you would go to Limerick for break ?

So I'm guessing it more a route for VFR The timing were not conducive for that for a weekend trick to see folks or friends .

Now that Galway airport no longer handles regular airline traffic Shannon is a good alternative to Cork for the southern part of the west coast of Ireland as well as for the Galway area itself.

It sits between Knock and Cork airports and the three of them provide comprehensive coverage for that beautiful and often stunning part of the country (Ireland's west coast).

Has Ryanair said definitely that LPL-SNN will not be returning in summer 2019?

Well it's not showing as yet. It's what I'm lead to believe.

For summer 2018 it looked as though Ryanair had dropped Bristol-Reus and Bristol-Bergerac.

They were not put into the booking engine until 22 March, albeit they only operated in the peak summer months this year. Shannon to Liverpool and to Bristol only operated from mid-May to October this year, so on the basis of the delayed 'announcement' of the Bristol routes I mentioned there would be plenty of time to put Shannon into the system later on if it's only intended to operate for part of the summer in 2019 as it did this year.

I don't know how long FR give time for a route to build as Shannon was their least popular from Liverpool , have to see, they may just try some other place of increase capacity on popular a route.

Is this July/August which tend to be Ryanair's busiest months or are all the summer months the same at LPL?

I took it from July and August.

 

[Silvercity]

August figures to Shannon have improved a lot to 86 percent L/F. So going the right way, only started in May. Have to see for 2019.

 

[Silvercity]

Ryanair will be adding for next year LPL-CFU Thursday and Sundays from 2 June to end of September 2019. Nice to see a new route from them.

 

[Silvercity]

It did operate by the same said airline about 10 years ago, so nice to see it back, however you do wonder why a destination like that ever left !

 

[Silvercity]

Ryanair plan to start 2 x weekly LPL-CPH from April. They were planning 4x weekly same route about a year ago, but for some reason it didn't start at all. Better late than never !

 

[Silvercity]

It also looks like Paphos which is a winter only service will continue into the summer next year too.

 

[Silvercity]

The LPL-CPH times are now showing on their web site for 2019 :- Fridays LPL-CPH 1735-2030 CPH-LPL 2055-2150 and Mondays LPL-CPH 1340-1635, CPH-LPL 1700-1755.

It also looks like Paphos which is a winter only service will continue into the summer next year too.

It has been confirmed now Paphos is for winter and summer, twice a week.

Ryanairs's Krakow service last night was operated by a ' Ryanair Sun' aircraft. FR9647. SP RSC.

Its ok for the Which survey to award Ryanair as worst short haul airline, however often Ryanair are the main choice because of various reasons, price, timings, or perhaps they are the only airline on the desired route. I might add their on time performance is good.

I take very little notice of these surveys and, based on Ryanair's continuing growth and success, neither do many other people.

 

[mullion]

Which surveys are the ones that companies watch and if they are good are always ready to quote in their adverts
and if they are bad they know that they need to get their act together.

 

[Silvercity]

I think Which is probably the most respected of the survey companies. However in Ryanair's respect people just carry on using them more and more.
