Ryanair

[paully]

Yes I think they've realized that Jet2's insane seat only prices have given them an opportunity...As always they know what to do and have exploited it ..I noticed that Jet2 have quietly abandoned the package tour only dates, if you join their free travel club...good prices and a good airport...All we need now is to get rid of those flat earth Galba morons

It's that time of year again that Ryanair are messing with the schedules

The Leeds to Bratislava & Paris Beauvais routes no longer on sale for the whole of the winter 2023/24 season.
Both routes were due to operate 2x weekly Fridays & Sundays but the last flights depart November 5th 2023 and look to recommence from March 15th 2024.

interesting one that they have cut BTS when they literally just increased it? Hopefully a glitch. Looks like BHX BTS has gone also.

Probably had a falling out with BTS then (a la VNO) in the hope of bargaining a better deal

 

[752]

That's what I was thinking. Again be good if Wizz could jump on BTS / VNO

I don’t know why Ryanair bother marketing BVA for the winter. This is the 2nd winter in a row that this has happened. Shame about BTS

Looks like FR have been chopping and changing their whole winter program through alot of UK bases. maybe just one to keep an eye on.

 

[Aviador]

Ryanair chop and change every year, its quite normal.

Seems as the Leeds-Bradford to Warsaw Modlin route is unaffected for now and remains 4x weekly up until end of October and 2x weekly for winter 2023/24 season

I see Manchester's Ryanair service swaps to Warsaw Chopin. But we also have that route already covered by Wizz Air up to 2x weekly.

 

[Sherburnflyer92]

They fallen out with Modlin?

 

[Finger66]

Ryanair are always modlin in something! Just sounds typical FR tactics to strike a better deal. Think they know if they give up LBA then that would be just playing into W6:s hands

 

[Len Fish]

They’re always Chopin and changing!

 

[Finger66]

Warsaw this about then?

 

[LBA4EVER]

Always modlin about Chopin and changing routes you mean haha
Used modlin twice with ryanair, tiny little airport with just 4 gates from memory. Perhaps the ryanair changes are down to capacity issues at modlin?

We are presently sat having a welcome coffee in FUE airport...checking FR shows the inbound to be EI IHJ unusually a MAX on this route...looking forward to trying one..
The airport is less than busy but easy to negotiate, very efficient but friendly security overseen by the police as opposed to here...Maybe they should try that at Manchester ..
Had a good holiday but ready to come home...I'll keep you posted..

Interesting that here there is no self service bag tag etc ..It's the old fashioned queue at a desk

I was playing golf on the 14th at Horsforth this afternoon when you landed (the 14th being directly at the side of the runway , 32 touch down). You were rocking a bit on finals but couldn't see the actual touch down.

We certainly were, was the Captains landing, shame you missed the touchdown though....It would have been spectacular...not especially hard but massive braking action, so much we had to put our hands out on the seat in front to prevent forward movement..Interesting...The Max can stop quickly when required.

Probably slammed on to avoid having to go to the end, round the loop, and backtrack. When it's busy (as it was), once in that loop you can be there a while waiting for inbounds to land.

I completely agree, spectacular though it was, it did seem to be planned and had a reason for it..Also the crew were finishing for the day after a silly O Clock start and didnt want to hit the rush hour!!

Now aircraft who miss the turn off have to taxi to the end of the runway and taxi back I wonder if aircraft that brake harder than normal to avoid having to do that will cause more wear and tear to the runway surface? Wasn’t the reason for not allowing u-turns any more to lessen runway wear?
