Ryanair to close Belfast City base
Ryanair said it will close its Belfast City base at the end of the current summer schedule Oct. 31, citing the airport's confirmation that a public inquiry into a planned runway extension will be further delayed.
Ryanair will switch/close 9 of its 10 Manchester routes to lower cost competitor airports in East Midlands, Leeds Bradford and Liverpool after Manchester Airport refused to lower its charges to reflect the lower fares being paid by passengers in the current recession.
