Ryanair expands service beyond Lisbon, advocates immediate development of Portela, and condemns ANA's pricy fees
In a recent development, budget airline Ryanair is set to expand its operations in Portugal, announcing new flight routes from Porto, Faro, and Funchal. This expansion comes as the company stations additional aircraft in these cities starting winter 2025/2026.
However, the construction of the new airport, yet to be identified, is the subject of controversy. Michael O'Leary, Ryanair's CEO, has accused ANA, the Portuguese flag carrier, of increasing airport fees to fund the construction of this news-making facility.
It is important to note that the new routes and the specific airports where they will be operating have not been specified in the text. The accusation made by O'Leary suggests that these increased fees are not being used to fund Ryanair's own expansion but rather the construction of a new airport in Portugal.
ANA, on the other hand, has not yet publicly responded to these allegations. The planned construction start of the new airport is not mentioned in the provided information.
As Ryanair continues to grow its presence in Portugal, the controversy surrounding the increased airport fees remains a topic of breaking news. With the new routes set to commence, it will be interesting to see how this situation unfolds in the coming months.
