Ryanair said today that it plans to add daily frequencies on its five main Ireland-UK routes from October in a direct response to similar flight increases recently announced by Aer Lingus for its winter schedule.
The airline said that from October 2013 it will add at least one additional daily return flight on each of its top five Dublin-UK routes to Bristol ,Edinburgh and Manchester from 1st November and Birmingham and London Stansted from 11th November.
Ryanair CEO Michael O’Leary said “Confronted with incontrovertible evidence that competition between Ryanair and Aer Lingus has intensified, the UKCC has been reduced to inventing fairytale future ‘concerns’ that Ryanair has ‘influence’ over Aer Lingus or that this stake has or will lead to a lessening of competition.”
