RYANAIR has confirmed it will almost certainly axe any flights on which Irish airports increase their charges.

Ryanair vows to axe flights if  charges rise

Following its decision to stop its East Midlands and Glasgow services from Cork, the airline was accused by Cork Airport Authority of reneging on the terms of the new routes scheme. That scheme gave the airlines 100% discount in the first year of the flights before dropping the discount by 20% every year for five years.

However, Ryanair said it had signed up for the two British routes on the basis that the 100% discount would continue and insisted it had told Cork airport several times that it would never pay charges on them.
