      >The budget airline is preparing to axe the seats after air navigation manager Aena revealed plans to increase airport charges.

      >Ryanair will announce the reduction next Wednesday, according to Europa Press.

      >Eddie Wilson, the airline’s chief executive, told the Spanish media outlet: “We are going to invest where we can get a return.”

      >He added that he came to the decision due to the “indifference” of the Spanish government.

      >The new charges would raise costs by 6.5% by 2026, totalling 11.03 euros per passenger.

      How is increasing airport charges indifference?

      This is positive for Spain, isn’t? Less cheap tourists (there are protests against overturism in Spain). More money from fares.

      Did the same in Germany earlier in the year. They might run out of destinations if they keep this up!

      I consider myself good at english, but newspapers’ titles always find creative ways to make me doubt my abilities.

      Standard operating procedure by Ryanair, blackmailing airports if they ever try to touch any extra euros from them…. Time is coming when O Leary will throw us out of the planes above spain…no concern over the bags falling on your head nobody can bring any for free anyway

      This is a right move that must be followed by a blow against properly owners to adress airbnb abuse, which I think is the main culprit of overtourism. Otherwise it won’t change much in the long run

      They always do this – play airports against each other and “slash routes” to panic local politicians.

      Nothing new – you don’t want to have your airport relying entirely on budget airlines for routes.

      Ive seen people of spain assaulting tourists so they should be happy about it

      Well, they cancelled my and my mothers flight back home to Germany so we could spend NYE with my uncle…

      Wow. If paying € 11 more per flight is too much, maybe a staycation is the better choice.

      Air travel is way too cheap as it is, being lightly taxed compared to for example rail.

      Ngl I think that Spain’s problem isn’t quite that they have too many tourists, but rather that they all pool into Madrid, Barcelona, Majorca, etc.

      The government should focus on attracting would-be Barcelona airbnb-ers to locations like Asturias, Navarra, Galicia, etc. that aren’t as trafficked. Frankly, a lot of countries have this issue. France should be getting people to Brittany and Bordeaux, Germany should be promoting Swabia and Saxony, the UK could draw people to the Midlands and Wales

      Huge opportunity for neighboring countries to fill the gap. Morocco could use another injection of tourists.

      Ryanair ‘tourists’ are the ones you can really do without. I’d say, raise them even more.

      AENA is 49% private owned, runs a local monopoly, and will also affect inner-spanish routes mostly used by locals. For the potential drop of tourism Spain has no alternative yet.

      I don’t see why I should cheer for it. The Spanish state will potentially see minor additional profits, but might see a net loss if total flights go down. For everyone else, this is a negative development.

      The headache with tourism stems from tourism be concentrated in certain places like Barcelona and Madrid, which this move will do nothing against. MAD, BCN, PMF and Girona are the last airports airlines will leave. All the other AENA airports, more used by locals, will suffer.

      It might end up as a blessing for Morocco, Southern Italy and Greece, though.

      this is half a public stunt.

      Due to Boeing issues, Ryanair is short on airplanes, needs to cut, places that increase tax are good for PR.

      They did this in Denmark earlier in the year and Norwegian were happy enough to come in and take their routes lol

      N’est-ce pas une bonne nouvelle dans une certaine mesure pour les différentes villes ensevelies par le tourisme ? Il semble.
