Ryanair announce new Budapest routes after Malev fails
04.02.12
Ryanair has announced it will launch 26 new routes from Budapest in a move to capitalise on the grounding of Hungarian flag carrier Malev over unpaid debts. Malev ceased operating early yesterday, ending 66 years of almost continuous service, after its planes were held overseas for unpaid debts.
Ryanair, who announced plans to fly five routes from Budapest last month, has increased that to 31, most of which will be operating by April. It will base four aircraft at Budapest and carry up to 2 million passengers per year.
The routes include previously announced fights from Birmingham, Bristol and Stansted, plus new flights from Manchester.
