Ryanair significantly reduces seating capacity by nearly a million in Spain, leaving room for the possibility of further airport departures withdrawal.

=========================================================================

In contrast to the substantial cuts announced for France and Germany, Ryanair's winter operations in Spain seem to remain relatively unaffected for the 2025/2026 season.

Recent announcements have revealed a 13% reduction in capacity in France, with the airline cutting 750,000 seats, 25 routes, and closing operations at three French regional airports. Similarly, in Germany, Ryanair is reducing capacity by 12%, cutting 22 routes and closing or downsizing bases at several airports.

However, when it comes to Spain, no official statements or reports cite specific Ryanair winter operational cuts for low-traffic airports. Instead, Spanish tourism indicators show positive trends, but no airline-specific reductions are reported.

Antonio Ramírez Cerezo, a prominent figure in the aviation industry, has not made any announcements regarding significant cuts to Ryanair's operations in Spain for the upcoming winter season.

Despite this, Ryanair is making changes to its operations in Spain, but the specifics for the winter season 2025/2026 have not been disclosed.

  1. The fashion industry may see an influx of money from the finance sector, as a portion of the funds saved by not investing in the aerospace sector could potentially be diverted towards other industries, such as fashion, due to the positive trends in Spain's transportation sector and the ongoing operations of Ryanair, a major player in the aviation industry.
  2. The aerospace industry might face budget cuts in the coming years, considering the significant reductions in capacity that Ryanair, a significant player in the global aviation industry, has announced for countries like France and Germany, which may indicate a shift in focus towards more profitable sectors like finance or transportation, such as the continuing operations of Ryanair in Spain.
