You just can't beat those prices! It's a strange world when it probably costs you more to get to the airport than it does to fly a few hundred miles to another country!

It seems like when this new route is introduced, they are dropping the tuesday and Thursday route from Stansted to Santiago. That is too bad since for us in Santiago, the Stansted route is more attractive.

I also read in the paper today that the mayor in Santiago was going to have "negotiations" with RyanAir about getting some new destination outside UK. It seems like the initial deal that Santiago made with Ryanair had a part were Ryanair promised X routes (not sure how many) by November 2006, and that is next month.

that's just a temporary thing over the winter; they're cutting down on quite a few routes over the winter "for technical reasons" (which is probably a euphemism for 'lack of demand'; winter is always a slack time for airlines, apart from Xmas/New Year break)

the odd thing is that they booked slots earlier in the year for Bergamo and Pisa, but then announce flights to Liverpool and Nottingham :?
