In the last 24 hours, Irish low-cost airline Ryanair has informed passengers about the cancellation of a number of flights on regular flights to and from Zagreb International Airport, reports Croatian Aviation.
Namely, Ryanair has canceled several flights on international routes to and from Zagreb Airport for May and June this year.
From Zagreb to:
Brussels Charleroi – two flights a week instead of five in May,
Sofia – all flights canceled in June,
Paphos – two flights a week instead of three in May,
Dusseldorf Weeze – two flights a week instead of three in May,
Frankfurt Hahn – two flights a week instead of three in May,
Karlsruhe – two flights a week instead of three in May,
Memmingen – two flights a week instead of three in May,
Corfu – all flights canceled in May and June,
Dublin – two flights a week instead of three in May,
Brindisi – all flights canceled in May and June,
Milan Bergamo – canceled flights on Sundays in May,
Rome – two flights a week instead of four in May,
Malta – two flights a week instead of three in May,
Gothenburg – two flights a week instead of three in May,
Malmö – two flights a week instead of three in May,
Basel – all flights canceled in May and June,
London – four flights a week instead of seven in May.
On most routes, certain weekly rotations were canceled, and the airline cited commercial terms in the passenger notice. Namely, Ryanair has been selling very cheap tickets on these routes for months, from 5 to 10 euros one way, and now it is canceling those flights and offering passengers the possibility of vouchers or changing travel dates.
Croatian Aviation adds that the same thing happened earlier with the route to Milan. The airline then returned the flights to sale a few days later, but at much higher prices, so it should not be surprising if this is what happens on most of the above routes. Due to the early announcement, passengers are not entitled to compensation in accordance with EU regulations 261, and the airline leaves room for additional earnings by reselling the now canceled flights.
