Tras la negativa del nuevo Govern a renovar sus ayudas a la low cost irlandesa, la compañía reducirá de once a seis sus aviones en Girona, eliminará 18 rutas, 102 frecuencias y transportará a la mitad de pasajeros (2,3 millones).
Ryanair’s Five Year Girona Extension Collapses as New Government Backtracks on Deal
18 ROUTES CUT, 1.7M PAX & OVER 1,000 JOBS LOST AT GIRONA
Ryanair, the world’s favourite airline, today (15th Feb) confirmed the cancelation of its five year extension agreement at Barcelona Girona Airport, which was originally announced in December 2010, as the new Government of Catalonia has refused to honour its agreement with Ryanair.
In December 2010 Ryanair and the Government of Catalonia reached agreement on a five year extension of its base operation at Girona Airport under which Ryanair agreed to base 11 aircraft at Girona, operate 64 routes and deliver 4m passengers p.a. which would sustain up to 4,000 jobs in and around Girona Airport. However, the new Government has refused to honour the agreement despite being consulted on it by the outgoing Government.
Ryanair will, from the end of February, reduce its Girona operations by five aircraft, close 18 (of 64) routes and reduce frequencies on 17 other routes, with the loss of over 100 weekly flights, which will see Ryanair’s Girona traffic fall from 4m to 2.3m p.a. with the loss of up to 1,700 local jobs. Ryanair regrets the failure of the new Catalonia Government to honour its five year extension agreement with Spain’s largest airline, at a time when it should be trying to grow jobs and tourism in Catalonia. Ryanair will now switch these five aircraft to lower cost airports elsewhere in Europe.
Speaking in Barcelona, Ryanair’s Michael Cawley said:
“Ryanair sincerely regrets that the new Government of Catalonia has failed to honour the recent five year extension of our base agreement at Girona Airport despite the fact that it was consulted on its detail by the outgoing Government. Sadly this will lead to significant traffic and job losses at Girona instead of 4m passengers and the 4,000 local jobs which would have been sustained had the Catalonia Government implemented the agreement which was concluded in December 2010.
Ryanair will now switch five aircraft from Girona with the loss of 18 routes, over 100 weekly flights, 1.7m passengers p.a. and 1,700 jobs to other airports elsewhere in Europe. It is a remarkable achievement by the new government to have caused such job and tourism losses within weeks of taking office. However, while this is a significant loss for Girona, Ryanair will continue to grow at other lower cost airports in Spain and elsewhere in Europe.”

Que cierren la puerta al salir. Si tanta subvención necesitan, es que muy poco aportan.

Joer, ya empezamos con el chantaje para conseguir subvenciones...
#1 aaaa migo es que volar barato cuesta dinero

"Ryanair no elimina rutas poco rentables, porque todas lo son" => ¿todas son poco rentables o todas son rentables?
Pues es una pena para girona y la provincia de catalunya en general , a toda la gente que tenga pasta "limitada" para irse de vacaciones de paises nordicos se lo pensara dos veces antes de comprar un billete para españa , lo que conlleva perdida en turismo y en dinero para la zona , muy burros estos politicos catalanes , muy burros.

YA OS LO DIJE:
Ryanair recibe 80 de los 91 millones de euros de ayudas a las aerolíneas en España [16]

#7 Q creiais, si quereis viajar barato, con tarifas baratas, alguien tiene que aflojar pasta, pq viajar por 10 céntimos no es rentable,
pero llevar 6 meses una ruta abierta, reporta 6 millones de euros ( en subvenciones / regalo / expoliación ),
el dia q deje de haber esta tarta tan grande (pronto), todos en AVE, que es lo nacional y lo nuestro, nuestra gran apuesta / inversión.
