Ryanair celebrates 2.5m passengers at Leeds Bradford – but won’t expand
05.06.09
Despite celebrating carrying 2.5 million passengers at Leeds Bradford Airport this week, Ryanair has said that it will keep its operations at airport but will not expand them to due to high airport charges and taxes. The budget airline celebrated carrying its 2.5 millionth passenger to and from Leeds Bradford this week. It operates daily flights to Dublin, with services to Alicante and Girona.
Laszlo Tamas, Ryanair’s sales and marketing manager UK & Ireland, said Ryanair would like to launch extra services at Leeds Bradford, but the costs were too high. He said: ‘Demand for our three services at Leeds Bradford 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, but can't. Instead we are focusing on Spain and Italy.'
