I’d expect it’s a schedule update as BHX & LBA have also seen other Morocco and “Ryanair UK” flights taken off sale.
 
Some changes appearing on the website and app. It appears some of the gaps left by Tirana , agadir and Marrakech are starting to be filled. Extra flights to the likes of Bucharest, Budapest and Alicante for example with more as well.

Summary
Out of these 155x departures a week, 99x departures will be use BRS based aircraft and 56x will use aircraft operating from 19x other RYR bases (meaning 64% of the departures each week use BRS based aircraft).

A quick look at the BRS schedule this summer, and Ryanair will be basing 3x B38Ms and 2x B738s (vs 2x B38Ms and 3x B738s which were based in S24 and had been planned for this summer too).
 
Ryanair have released its full winter schedule - many increases across the board

Also additionally today some of summer 2026 have started to be released
 
Extra frequencies are being added again for this winter - Sofia and Bucharest up to 5 weekly and Budapest up to 7 per week ( 2 on Sundays). Fuerteventura goes back up to 2 per week.
 

Alicante – Bristol Reduce from 226 to 207 flights

Barcelona – Bristol Reduce from 92 to 76 flights

Lanzarote – Bristol Reduce from 109 to 104 flights

Madrid – Bristol Reduce from 111 to 101 flights

Malaga – Bristol Reduce from 157 to 146 flights

Looks like they've added DUB, ALC, AGP, PMI, IBZ, ACE, TFS, LPA & FUE to the schedule for next summer. Although changes of days and times, frequency on all routes remain the same during peak-summer 2026 vs 2025. Although more away-based aircraft will operate DUB and ALC flights, this will be balanced out by more BRS based aircraft operating PMI, AGP and TFS flights.
Now to wait for the full S26 schedule to be released!
 
Summer 2026 now fully on sale and given the swapping and changing Ryanair always seem to do it is by no means the final schedule but this is how it’s shaping up( number per week w/c10/08/26)

Alicante 15
Barcelona 7
Girona 4
Bergerac. Not on sale yet
Beziers not on sale yet
Bucharest. 3
Budapest 5
Bydgoszcz 2
Copenhagen 3
Dublin 23
Faro. 6
Fueteventura 2
Gdańsk 2
Las Palmas 3
Ibiza 3
Kaunas 3
Knock 2
Krakow 7
Arrecife 5
Limoges 3
Madrid 4
Malaga 9
Marseille 2
Milan bergamo 5
Palma 11
Porto 4
Poznan 2
Prague 4
Rzeszow 3
Sofia 2
Tenerife 4
Toulouse 2
Valencia 2
Venice 3
Wroclaw 4

Some increases in there - Alicante , Malaga for example . Just two routes not on sale - very long standing routes - think ever since Ryanair opened their base at Bristol.
 
It seems @Marko1 and I posted at the same time!

The Ryanair summer 2026 timetable has been released and all routes from S25 are now on sale from BRS (apart from EGC and BZR). Overall it shows a 6% increase in weekly departures, all of which are by utilising more away based aircraft.

Assuming BZR and EGC will be released both at S25 frequencies of 3x weekly, that should mean 165x weekly departures from BRS in peak-summer 2026.

Increases in frequency to:
ALC (13<15 weekly)
AGP (7<9 weekly)
BCN (6<7 weekly)
KRK (5<7 weekly)
BGY (3<5 weekly)
PRG (3<4 weekly)
OPO (3<4 weekly)

KUN is the only route to see a reduction (from 4 to 3x weekly)

They withdrew from Bergerac for the winter over tax increases. Don't think it's confirmed wether they'll return
 
The schedule for peak Summer 2026 appears to have been finalised with 5x based aircraft consisting of 3x B38M and 2x B738. This is the same as the 2025 schedule.
However, there are three gaps in the schedule, one each on Monday, Thursday, and Sunday, all of which perfectly fit EGC timings. These gaps would correspond to the same operational days as 2025, so we’ll see if the EGC gets released soon.

Heads Up!

For some weird reason, my days off work tend to involve being out of my flat by 5am and not getting back until 10pm. Back to work and the regular "fix" of 7.40am to 7.15pm hours
Heatwave Mk2 next week?
Some explosive weather build-ups currently in the North of England. What is it like where you are?
LBA: B737-300 G-GDFK empty down to Paris at 16:15 to operate the return LS268 back to Leeds 20:00 ETA where it will then operate the delayed LS265 to Malaga 20:40ETD
LBA: Albastar B737-800 EC-MUB positioning in tommorow afternoon from Gatwick 15:45 to operate a charter to Lourdes/Tarbes on Friday afternoon 14:00 AP7721 STC
I don't believe I am quite covering enough roles at work. Its now 4 on a bad day, 5 on a good day and there is scope for a 6th and 7th role. Still on minimum pay but had the biggest payrise in the company,
