Ryanair celebrate Leeds Bradford milestone, but will not expand
05.06.09
Despite celebrating carrying 2.5 million passengers to and from Leeds Bradford Airport this week, Ryanair has said that it will not expand its operations at the hub to due to high airport charges and taxes. The budget airline celebrated the milestone this week; it operates daily flights to Dublin, with services to Alicante and Girona from the hub.
Laszlo Tamas, Ryanair’s marketing manager UK & Ireland, said the budget airline would like to launch extra services at Leeds Bradford, but the costs were too high. He said: ‘Demand for our three services is good and we are looking to increase the number of passengers we carry from 260,000 to around 300,000 a year. We would like to expand and offer new routes, but we can't. Instead we are focusing on expanding in Spain and Italy.'
