I have heard from a good source that Ryanair is to base a fourth aircraft at LBA next summer, perhaps at the expense of Liverpool.
There's nothing like a good rumour but we get the Ryanair rumour this time every year.
Take one look at Ryanair's already released for sale summer 2019 schedule and to me it looks finalised. Especially now that all the gaps have been filled in.

I would love to be proved wrong though, even if it was to Liverpool's detriment.
Not all other bases have released there summer 19 schedules so we may get a new route from another airport based aircraft.
So Channel 4 are to move HQ to Leeds. Hubs to be set up in Bristol and Glasgow. Overland transport it is to get to/from Leeds then...............
And there’s me saying its going to be quiet now at LBA....Donny has 9 flights today...4 x WIZZ, 3 x FlyBe and 2 x TUI......now that’s quiet....would be nice if WIZZ came to LBA.
From what they said on the news, LTN offered the guy a wheelchair but he refused it because it wasn't the right type of chair and required someone to push him. It seems it was a matter of principle because he felt that he should be able to move around the airport independently, not being pushed. I think it should be taken into account that the only reason that this happened is because the airline he was flying with had left his own wheelchair behind, so it wasn't available at LTN when he arrived. As far as I am aware, LTN do what most airports do by providing a wheelchair for those that don't have their own and need one. And yes, LTN is now owned by AMP Capital.Reading todays piece on the BBC website about the paraplegic guy dragging himself through arrivals at Luton airport, aren't the owners there own LBA? What is the position regarding equipment that this guy expects at all airports however big or small at LBA?
I agree. The legislation on accessibility requires organisations to make what are termed 'reasonable adjustments' to assist people with disabilities where required. That applies not only to wheelchairs but to the building itself. It is all about what is 'reasonable'. I think the offer of the chair is reasonable. Surely the gripe should be with the airline for forgetting to load his own wheelchair on board the aircraft and leaving it behind?Providing an alternative wheelchair, albeit one that needed pushing, would seem reasonable in the circumstances. It was his decision not to accept it and his subsequent protest was misplaced. His real gripe should be with the airline who failed to deliver his custom wheelchair.
