I'm trying to book an early morning flight to London Stansted in December, however Ryanair don't seem to be operating the 7am flight in December. Have they cut this flight or am
I looking at booking too early?

Booking too early! God no.

It's been cut on TUES/WEDS since last winter IIRC. Operates other days.

Shannon to Birmingham flight looks to have been dropped on Saturdays for a few weeks in November and December.

Yup, no Saturdays on those dates, still operating past those dates pending numbers.

Reputable Rog

Does anybody know if the Aer Lingus Faro flights will be in operation next summer ? They're up for Dublin and Cork but nothing for Shannon as of yet.

Also a post on PPRUNE of some news on Wednesday. Not sure how credible it is though.

Shannon-Edinburgh cut to 4pw (From 6pw) from late October, not operating Tuesdays or Wednesdays.

Despite this, it's looking like a winter season with some growth, with Norwegian's extras and the addition of Alicante.

Looks like it'll be 4x weekly for next Summer too

As I suspected, that has all been removed.

Unusual for an A330 from Lyon to Montreal having a scheduled fuel stop?

Ennisman

I would have thought the same alright but this scenario was confirmed to me.

And another 150 or so passengers being bused to DUB or being sent through LHR...They're doing no justice to whatever brand reputation they have left in SNN

EI must be the most unreliable transatlantic airline operating from SNN.

I would be very reluctant to book a US flight with them at this stage with all the cancellations and subsequent hassle they create for for their customers.

This practice has been going on for the best part of 3 years. Back in March 16 SNN-BOS was cancelled for a number of days, in OCT16 20 return flights were cancelled in the space of 2 weeks. There have been plenty more cancellations in between on a smaller scale

As someone working in the airport, they would be bottom of the list for travelling to the states.
