Official: Ryanair stops Rhodes for the winter period


A journalist from the nationwide newspaper "To Vima" managed to get an official answer* from Ryanair regarding winter flights to Rhodes and Kos.

Ryanair will continue to work with aviation and government officials to increase the number of connections and inbound tourists in Greece all year round. However, given that our winter program at 160 airports is completed, it will be not possible to include Kos or Rhodes for the winter 2011/2012.

The above statement concludes the issue that emerged a couple of weeks ago. Although it is not our blog's job to judge who, why and how share the resposibilities for losing Ryanair's winter connections, the result itself is disappointing as Rhodes will lack any international connections from early November till late March of 2012. Moreover, Ryanair's next summer plans are still vague so we have to be patient to see what is on their minds.
