Ryanair to cut capacity at Berlin airport, citing high access costs

Ryanair (RYA.I) will cut 20 per cent of its traffic at Berlin-Brandenburg airport, which will result in a loss of 750,000 seats, after the German government and airport did not address high access costs, the Irish low-cost airline said on Tuesday.

The cuts will see Ryanair’s Berlin-based aircraft reduced to seven from nine and six routes trimmed, the airline said.

The airline has repeatedly warned that it would reduce its presence in Berlin and switch capacity to other EU countries if Germany did not meet its demands, including reversing an aviation tax increase and reducing air traffic control charges.
