Great to see a new route in these uncertain times and an unserved one

I've always wondered why Ryanair never ran this service from BHX. They run EMA - NOC, but Birmingham has a far larger Irish community than the East Midlands. My former girlfriend and her mother regularly used the old Flybe service, which I believe was daily through the summer months.Another new route! Birmingham to Knock Ireland west airport!
Flights starting on March 29th 2022 at 2 weekly on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
The worry with Ryanair, is that they can respond to competition, but if they see off that competition they sometimes then drop the route themselves. Leaving the travelling public with nothing.Wonder if they are sending a message to Flybe/Emerald/Aer Lingus?
Indeed, and that was the driving force in building the airport.Is there not a Catholic shrine at the vicinity of Knock? An area of pilgrimage warranting a airline service given it's location?

Just received the cancellation emails for two planned bookings.. So annoying!! Off to LutonSpoke too soon, looks like Lisbon gone (again) as nothing bookable beyond March 25th.
I hope it returns, I only managed to use the route once but it seemed to be busy both in & outAccording to the article linked below which was Tweeted by Ryanair the decision is due to the “blocking of slots that TAP cannot use” and that the affected routes "will return in the winter period".
Ryanair cancela 19 rotas de Verão em Lisboa e culpa a TAP e o Governo por “bloquear “slots””
Ryanair comunicou esta terça-feira a decisão, mas diz que os três aviões que serão realocados voltam no Inverno. Companhia diz que os bilhetes já pagos podem ser reembolsados ou ser compensados com voos alternativos.www.publico.pt
Still a loss for BHX as the recovery begins but lets hope that it's a temporary blip and it does return for winter.
