Headline news is that FR is to announce today an increase in frequencies on a number or routes and to introduce a new eastern European route from Liverpool.
The detail will probably mean reduced frequencies on other routes.

Zadar is a coastal town about half way along the long Adriatic coast of Croatia, in the province of Dalmatia. While Pula (well to the north) and Split (well to the south) are more obvious holiday destination airports, it will be interesting to see how Ryanair do on this one.
Lublin is in eastern Poland, near a 100 miles SE of Warsaw, 75 miles approx NE of Krakow, and 50 miles from the Belarus border. Not a well known city break destination, presumably this will be marketed more at the Polish end of the operation.
Although neither destination will require any more than a couple of rotations per week, it is encouraging that Ryanair are still considering developing new routes from Liverpool.

I agree, even if they are completely random destinations, but that's what Ryanair do, and as experience shows they do it well, so thanks to them for showing faith in Liverpool.

Lublin is aimed to serve eastern Poland which is a bit deserted in terms of airports and not too far from the Ukraine border.

Most interesting comment in the Echo article is the suggestion Ryanair will increase pax throughput by almost 50% over the next three years, to 3m a year. Does this mean a new 'accord' has been reached with the airline and Airport?

Does this mean a new 'accord' has been reached with the airline and Airport? Hmm? That piece also reckons that there will be an increase of one based aircraft to make 8 based from next summer! Either its the Echos lack of professionalism again, or FR sneaking another aircraft in this winter and then another next summer or finally FR are not telling the entire story. So presuming 2.1million pax = 7 based aircraft, 3million pax will mean 10 based aircraft. Time will tell.

New Ryanair routes from Manchester and Liverpool"Low-cost airline Ryanair is to create 1,000 UK jobs next year by flying one million more passengers on a number of new routes.
The Dublin-based carrier, which operates more than 1,500 flights a day across 28 countries, plans to add nine new routes to its three airports in the North West - Manchester, Liverpool and East Midlands.
Ryanair said it will add five new routes from Manchester to Corfu, Krakow, Lanzarote, Paphos and Trapani, two new routes from Liverpool to Lublin and Zadar and two new routes from East Midlands to Marseille and Menorca.
The move will add 360 jobs in Manchester, 180 positions in Liverpool and 460 roles at East Midlands airport, to an existing 6,000 staff and will see the launch of two new aircraft."Read more: www.itv.com/news/granada/2012-10-31/new-ryanair-routes-from-manchester-and-liverpool/Are these all new Routes, quoted on Ryanair's website.New Routes 2012 / LiverpoolKos 31 Mar 13 Lublin 1 Apr 13 Oslo Rygge 9 Nov 12 Rhodes 1 Apr 13 Vilnius 9 Nov 12 Warsaw Modlin 28 Oct 12 Zadar 1 Apr 13 www.ryanair.com/en/new-routes

Lodz is back in the schedules for this winter. It was not included when the other winter routes were loaded. I was probably half asleep, but when I checked the schedules last week I did not notice Lodz being bookable.
