Ryanair: Could my prayers be answered?

[Clive]

Thanks for the effort but as I said we don’t want this kind of detail in a GLA forum never mind a GLA thread.

To be fair mate, I did pose the question (somewhat tongue in cheek) and some posters have literally taken up the challenge of finding out.

You troublemaker you.

Guilty m'lud.

So, just for clarification, if you do unearth anything related to FR and the EDI schedules, please post in the EDI thread and not in Clive's thread of prayers. Please keep this thread for all FR posts regarding GLA and GLA only. Thank you.

Well.
Glasgsgow Malaga 31 st October.
I was one of 24 sould on board. I took pics but its too depressing to view.
The airport was a ghosttown
One girl on check out at Duty free.
One person in front of me.
Yes its winter now but crikey, it felt like being in PIK

Interesting looking at the average available basic fares today for the 9 Ryanair flights next week to Malaga over the three Central Scotland airports - perhaps not scientific given the different departure/arrival times
Airport A Out £76, In £115
Airport B Out £38, In £96
Airport C Out £30, In £178

I am very pessimistic as another week goes by with Ryanair not selling flights next summer to Alicante, Brussels, Krakow, Malaga, Warsaw or Wroclaw from Glasgow

I don't share the hope that it is because Ryanair is going to announce a base - I think they are seeing relatively weak demand combined with the MAX delays and already have the supply side covered from other airfields giving an overall higher yield

Heading off to the airport in an hour or so to catch the 2050 EZY to BRS.There's another departure to LGW at the same time and then nowt until the morning.

I arrived last night at 2030 from Heathrow and the place was absolutely desolate. On the plus side it was busy at 6am with my BA LGW flight over 95% full.

All airports have daily peaks and troughs in demand. What is important is the volume of pax using GLA is going up and not down.

The volumes are about 50% less than EDI and we’re slipping down the UK ranks compared to some English regional airports who used to have less passenger volume than GLA. Shambolic.

Yes we know. We need a Ryanair base. And that brings us right back on topic….
