The timetable section on the Ryanair web side has had the dates flights are due to operate next summer loaded, pending the finalising of schedules and loading them in the booking engine.
All the routes I've checked indicate the schedules will be identical to this summer.
No routes dropped will be good news and shows the airline is happy with this year's performance.

We maybe be getting another two routes according to this map which says the LPL base has 44 routes (we currently have 42 listed)  The map comes from this recruiting site www.cavok.cat/web/index.htm |

The only reliable way to know (other than finding the right person 'on the inside') is to wait and see! |

Is it though? When did we have 44 FR routes exLPL? They flew LPL to 47 different destinations in 2010 (including 3 new routes Rimini, Trapani and Oslo/Rygge), so before that there were 44. They tend to include all seasonal destinations in their totals. Can be quite confusing at times while I'm trying to balance numbers they quote against what I list in the reviews! Full list was: Agadir, Alicante, Belfast City, Bergerac, Bratislava, Bremen, Bydgoszcz, Carcassonne, Cork, Derry, Dublin, Faro, Fuerteventura, Girona, Granada, Gran Canaria, Grenoble, Ibiza, Kaunas, Knock, Krakow, Lanzarote, Limoges, Lodz, Malaga, Milan, Murcia, Nimes, Oslo/Rygge, Oslo/Torp, Palma, Pisa, Porto, Poznan, Reus, Riga, Rimini, Rome, Rzeszow, Seville, Shannon, Stockholm/Skavsta, Szczecin, Tenerife, Trapani, Venice and Wroclaw Cheers, Dave |

Still no sign of Tenerife on their web site so can only presume they've dropped it. Weird as its usually full.

In an article in today's Manchester Evening News Michael O'Leary effectively rules out any further growth at Liverpool though he does say the base won't 'decline' either. Focus for the time being will be Manchester and Leeds Bradford.
Liverpool it seems will need to start looking elsewhere for growth, but where?

MOL thoughts will change when the LPL base faces competition.

Competition from whom?

I was under the impression that Ryanair's Liverpool base was already in competition with EasyJet and Wizzair.
Competition, while good for the pasenger (in terms of frequency, price and choice), usually ultimately leads to one or other of the competitors withdrawing when yields fail to reach expectation. Don't always know why 'another operator' is seen as the holy grail.
Getting those operators we have, to serve their routes at a frequency, timing and price to satisfy and attract new customers to me is vital. The ridiculous situation, whereby on most weekdays there is no day-return facility for business passengers to Dublin from Liverpool continues for yet another season. The Airport plays its part too, in making the passage through the airport as pleasant and painless as possible - something Liverpool appears still to fall short on.

What is it that MOL is so keen to invest in MAN when for years they ripped him off,and LPL gave him the opportunity to become who he is and his airline,its this airport in the North West that made Ryanair,and for him to say there will be no growth(I must admit to not having read the article)here but it wont decline leaves a bitter taste.MOL should remember what this airport has done for him,while MAN at the time couldnt careless

Has already been asked, but, what competition? Airlines are hardly falling over themselves to serve LPL now are they?
LPL itself is down to 5 regular airlines. One of those (BE) is only at LPL due to the NHS contract, and, recently, LPL's 2 biggest customers have made it perfectly clear where they see the expansion in the North West.
LPL gave him the opportunity to become who he is and his airline,its this airport in the North West that made Ryanair
Bit OTT in my opinion. Ryanair made itself, not Liverpool. Liverpool is not even its biggest base. Its an Irish airline with its biggest base at STN with a large intra-European network. So how was it LPL that 'made' Ryanair?
leaves a bitter taste.MOL should remember what this airport has done for him,while MAN at the time couldnt careless
Clearly, MOL doesn't share the same sentiment, and likewise, Business doesn't run on it (sentiment) either.
At the end of the day, if MAN has made him a deal he couldn't refuse, and if MOL sees his development opportunities at MAN, then down the M56 is where he is going to go.
People can scowl, people can bitch, and people can call them traitors, but, Ive said it before and Ill say it again, its business and you do whats going to make you the most money. If you do something purely because its sentimental, you aint gunna make much money.

Thats the Ryanair way of doing things,they have no loyalty,and dont care who they upset,many people have predicted their demise because of this,but they just keep on growing and growing,some companies will not deal with them at all,such as Airbus,and as you state Manchester airport, who for a while,stood up to them,a few years back,now both Ryanair and Manchester have both got what they wanted all along.I personally avoid Ryanair if I can,but sometimes they have the flight at the time going where I want,Things may of course change in the future,but at the moment Ryanair can dictate to airports such as Liverpool,not the other way around.
Also with all these FR 738s,lying around doing nothing for the winter at LPL.it will prevent the airport from accepting diversions,due to the lack of stands available,therefore reducing possible extra revenue that the airport could gain,that is assuming FR are paying nothing for parking their aircraft here!
