Ryanair and EasyJet have significantly expanded their operations in Germany, with Ryanair now Europe's largest flight provider. Yet, the growth has faced a setback due to high costs at German airports.
German aviation industry is experiencing a decline in flight schedules while the rest of Europe is bouncing back post-Covid. Ryanair plans to increase seating by 17% in Europe but only has 78% of the previous supply in Germany.
EasyJet reduced its aircraft at Berlin Brandenburg Airport, indicating a decline in the German market. They aim to counter this by expanding capacity, adding 5 new routes and 200,000 seats for summer 2024.
Both Ryanair and EasyJet highlight the issue of high fees and operating costs at German airports as a significant challenge for budget airlines.
