Bergerac to East Midlands

[bryansmith]

I have just read in the current edition of French News that Ryanair have suspended flights from Bergerac to East Midlands for the whole winter. Does any other carrier fly to East Midlands from Bergerac or Bordeaux ? Any ideas why Ryanair should take this action ? Is it connected with the dispute at the airport concerning the restaurant ? Presumably not as there is no mention of cancellations for other destinations such as Stanstead etc.

Might it be due to the same reason as the other french destination flight suspensions?

"Ryanair has announced it is to suspend a number of flights to France during the winter months, and defer the launch of its Stansted to Deauville service.

The flights affected are:
Luton to Brest, which will be suspended from November 11 until February 27, next year.
Nottingham East Midlands to Nimes, which will be suspended between November 9 and December 19, and between January 9 and February 28.
Shannon to Nantes, which will be suspended from November 9 until February 27.

Ryanair’s new route to Deauville was set to take off on October 31 but this will no longer occur, the airline says flights will be suspended until February 28.

Peter Sherrard, of Ryanair, said: “We have selected these routes for withdrawal because they were the poorest performers in terms of advance bookings.

“However, we have assured each of the relevant airports that these routes will restart next February, well in advance of the summer season when travel to the French regions is strong.”
