Ennesimo taglio da parte di Ryanair.. Questa volta su Edimburgo..

Ryanair is expected to announce cuts to the number of services it operates to and from Edinburgh Airport.

Forth News understands the decision relates to a dispute over the fees the budget airline has to pay the airport's operator B-A-A.
Ryanair accounts for around twenty percent of flights from the capital.
More details are expected at a media conference hosted by Ryanair Chief Executive Micheal O'Leary tomorrow morning.

In realtà non capisco questa mossa. Mantiene i voli su Glasgow che penso sia una delle piu' brutte città del mondo e chiude Edimburgo che è una delle piu' belle in assoluto, davvero molto strano

Quando si tratta di Ryanair non è mai strano, semplicemente taglia ad Edimburgo perchè non le danno abbastanza sovvenzioni o le tariffe aeroportuali sono alte, e non taglia a Prestwick perchè lì probabilmente sono più accontentati.

RYANAIR CUTS EDINBURGH TRAFFIC BY 15% FROM SUMMER 2012


5 ROUTES, 300,000 PASSENGERS & 300 JOBS LOST BY BAA’S HIGH CHARGES

Ryanair, the world’s favourite airline, today (21st Feb) announced that it would cut its base at Edinburgh from 7 to 6 aircraft, with the loss of 5 routes, 300,000 pax p.a., leading to the loss of up to 300 jobs, following the breakdown of negotiations with the high cost BAA Edinburgh about a competitive cost base for further Ryanair growth at Edinburgh. Ryanair also warned that BAA Edinburgh’s high cost base will lead to significant further cuts in Ryanair’s operation, if its 5 year agreement (which expires in Oct 2012) is not extended on more competitive terms.

These cuts at Edinburgh Airport (including the closure of Berlin, Malmo, Murcia, Ibiza and Tallinn routes) become effective for the summer 2012 schedule (starting April) and will include:

· From 7 to 6 base aircraft (down 15%).
· From 40 to 35 routes (down 13%).
· From 140 to 110 weekly flights (down 21%).
· From 1.8M to under 1.5M pax p.a (down 16%).
· This loss of 300,000 pax p.a. will sustain 300 fewer jobs at Edinburgh Airport.

Ryanair will continue its negotiations with BAA Edinburgh to try to extend its five year agreement on a competitive basis from October 2012, but warned that if these negotiations are unsuccessful, then there will be further significant aircraft, route, traffic and jobs cuts announced at Edinburgh from winter 2012 onwards.

Ryanair’s Michael O’Leary said:

“Ryanair regrets BAA Edinburgh Airport’s rejection of our proposals for a competitive cost base which would allow Ryanair to further grow our traffic and routes for summer 2012. Sadly BAA Edinburgh seems to prefer higher costs, even if it means fewer passengers and jobs at Edinburgh.

“While Ryanair remains committed to Edinburgh Airport (and with 1.5m passengers and 35 routes, we continue to be one of the largest airlines operating to/from Edinburgh), BAA Edinburgh cannot continue to ignore the competitive marketplace, where airports all over the UK and Europe have been reducing costs and lowering charges in return for traffic growth. We hope even at this late stage that BAA Edinburgh will realise that the way to grow traffic and jobs is by working with Ryanair to lower passengers fares, not raise them.”

Che grandissimo bugiardo MO'L....


SXF è già stata sospesa da tempo.
IBZ, MMX e MJV erano state annunciate solo qualche settimana fa, ma non hanno mai operato...si vede che le vendite non sono state esattamente brillanti ed hanno preferito stopparle prima che iniziassero..
L'unica che verrà veramente chiusa è TLL..

Ora, se per un TLL-EDI sono a rischio 300 posti di lavoro...

Ditemi voi...

Che vergogna di press release!!!
 
TLL questo inverno non ha operato come invece operava lo scorso inverno.. Stessa cosa per berlino! Di nuove rotte restano comunque Verona e Szczecin! Gli aerei passano da 7(estate scorsa) a 6(questo inverno erano comunque 4 più uno 'spare')!
 
Aggiornamento, i tagli saranno maggiori. Interessanti anche i temi della negoziazione

Ryanair cuts more routes at Edinburgh Airport

Ryanair has announced further cuts in its operations at Edinburgh Airport.
The budget airline said it would close eight routes and 60 weekly flights from October 2012.
Winter routes affected include Bratislava, Bremen, Frankfurt, Fuerteventura, Gothenburg, Kaunas, Lodz and Poznan.
In February, Ryanair cut five routes from its summer schedule, after a breakdown in talks with operator BAA over airport charges.
The airline claimed the latest cuts would see Edinburgh Airport traffic fall by 500,000 passengers a year and lead to the loss of up to 500 "on-site" jobs.
Ryanair warned that deeper cuts to its winter schedule "may be inevitable" if BAA Edinburgh failed to agree an extension to a five-year base agreement, which expires in October 2012, on more competitive terms.
Deputy chief executive Michael Cawley said: "Ryanair regrets BAA Edinburgh Airport's rejection of our proposals for a competitive cost base which would allow Ryanair to further grow our traffic and routes for winter 2012 and beyond.
"Sadly, BAA Edinburgh seems to prefer higher costs, even if it means fewer passengers and jobs at Edinburgh."
'Edinburgh monopoly'
Mr Cawley said that Ryanair remained committed to Edinburgh Airport, with 1.3m passengers and 17 routes planned for next winter.
But he added that "the BAA Edinburgh monopoly cannot continue to ignore the competitive marketplace, where airports all over the UK and Europe have been reducing costs and lowering charges in return for traffic growth".

Mr Cawley said he hoped there was a way to reverse the airline's cuts "to ensure further Ryanair growth" at Edinburgh.
Edinburgh Airport managing director Jim O'Sullivan said: "Of course we are disappointed that Ryanair has announced that it will reduce its services from Edinburgh.
"It was expected as we saw similar cuts in last year's winter schedule.
"The numbers quoted on any passenger and job impacts are speculative and we look forward to further negotiations with Ryanair once the sale of the airport is concluded.
"However, our position remains the same. We have tried extremely hard to negotiate with Ryanair but sadly on many issues have not been able to find common ground."
He added: "We continue not to be able to accept their wish to not pay the agreed air traffic control costs that all other airlines pay."
BAA is selling Edinburgh Airport following a decision by the Competition Commission, with final bids due to be lodged later this month.
