On 1 November, a Dutch court disallowed low-cost airline Ryanair to close its Eindhoven base. One month ago the Irish based airline announced to close the base in The Netherlands due to “lower traffic because of strikes“. A lame excuse, according to 16 pilots based at Eindhoven hence they went to court to have the decision revised. 

In a short statement, Ryanair said to appeal to the court verdict and that they will close its Eindhoven base on 6th November, as planned.

Working for 25 years in the aviation industry, I changed my career and became a firefighter/EMT in 2021. I like to spend my free time with my two sons, girlfriend, family and friends. I love to travel, wine and dine and support my favourite football squad KV Mechelen. Once an Ironman 70.3 finisher and dreaming of completing a full distance.
