Wizz Air to launch domestic connection from Bratislava to Košice

Ryanair will close its base of operations at Billund Airport as early as April. The reason for the decision is Denmark's newly introduced air travel tax and rising airport service costs.
Although Ryanair is abandoning the maintenance of its base in Billund, this does not mean a complete withdrawal of the Irish carrier from the Danish market. Connections will continue, but aircraft operating flights to and from Billund will be based at other airports.
However, the decision to close the base has its consequences. The elimination of the operating structure in Billund means the loss of 60 jobs, raising concerns among employees associated with the carrier's operations in the region.
One of the main reasons for the decision is the new tax on air travel that the Danish authorities are introducing. It will amount to 30 Danish kroner (about 4 euros) per ticket and will be added to the price of passenger travel. Although this is a relatively small amount, Ryanair argues that the additional financial burden and high operating costs make it no longer profitable to maintain a base in Billund.
