Au Revoir – Ryanair says Goodbye to Bordeaux
The low cost airline Ryanair has confirmed it will stop all flights to and from Bordeaux airport in France by November 2024 following rising airport fees.
The airline has said it will relocate the three aircraft stationed there to “cheaper destinations” elsewhere in Europe
Flights already scheduled to depart before November will still run. Tickets are still on sale for these – however later flights have been removed from its schedule from November 2024
The move will result in the loss of 40 Ryanair routes to and from Bordeaux in France, the loss of over 90 jobs for Bordeaux-based pilots, cabin crew and engineers.
It was 14 years ago when Ryanair first started flying into Bordeaux and more recently since 5 years they had built an operations base located at the airport.
The airport currently offers direct flights between Bordeaux and London, Birmingham, and Manchester airports in the UK.
