It seems that Valencia can’t do without Ryanair, as it will repoen it’s base at Valenicia airport in the winter – with the local tourism ministry to provide marketing support to market the services.
The base was closed in Valencia base in November 2008 due to the regional government’s decision not to provide marketing support, which has now been promptly reversed due to declining passenger numbers, and will operate 10 services from there.
Ryanair forecasts that its return to Valencia will boost annual passenger numbers at the airport by two million.
It just proves how much clout the airline has these days as it can dictate life or death of an area, or an airport it seems.
