FR's huge investment in BCN will give us all new destinations.  Don't moan about Ryanair's terms and conditions - just be grateful that air travel has never been cheaper and take advantage of it.

Hi
Yes Ryanair is still quoting Reua and Girona as Barcelona airports but on checking their website yesterday there are no flights after the end of October from London Stansted to Reus.....so is he pulling out of Reus?!!!

Yes, that's right and not just Stansted. I didn't manage to find any Ryanair flights to Reus from UK airports after the end of October.  Any suggestions for alternative airlines flying to Reus this winter?

After such a heavy investment into Reus airport Ryanair are not pulling out.
They have re-sheduled new routes and dropped all Winter flights to and from the U.K.
Same at Girona,as O,Leary is not happy with Spains airport authorities offering other airlines the cheap rates he is afforded.
There are more meetings scheduled this week at Girona so maybe all is not lost.
Barcelona offer now Edinburgh and Leeds but they are the only U.K. destinations.
We will just have to wait and see
No other airlines offer Winter flights into Reus .
The president of the airport authorities has called his bluff and will not be dictated to by O,Leary so has spat the dummy ,threw the toys out the pram ,and said up-yours to his customers,who are really just an inconvienience to him.
O,LEARY SUCKS (BUT I  ;D WISH I HAD HIS BUSINNESS BRAIN)

There is of course Easyjet with 4 rotations/day BCN to Gatwick

I would rather fly Easyjet, Gatwick to Barcelona, we only used Ryanair because he flew into Reus but if he is only going to fly to El Prat then I would rather pay a few more pounds and fly from Gatwick which is just down the road thus no car parking fees for Stansted.
