Ryanair reminds passengers of temporary (2 Week) Transfer

Ryanair, Europe’s largest low fares airline, today (20th July) reminded passengers that for two weeks (27th July †9th August) all flights to/from Pau will transfer to Lourdes (40km from Pau) while Pau Airport undergoes upgrade works to its landing systems which will enable more Ryanair flights to land safely in adverse weather conditions.

 

Ryanair and Pau Airport sincerely apologise to all passengers for any inconvenience caused. Passengers who are booked to travel through Pau Airport during this two week period have been contacted by Ryanair and advised of complementary coach transfers.
 
This upgrade at Pau will benefit all passengers in the long-term as it will minimise weather related cancellations and diversions in future.
 
Ryanair’s Stephen McNamara said:
 
“Ryanair has worked with Pau and Lourdes Airports to minimise the disruption of the closure of Pau by transferring all flights to Lourdes which is just 40 kilometres away. Ryanair has contacted all affected passengers via email to inform them of the amendments to their itinerary and remind them to check their revised itinerary before making their way to the airport.
 
These essential upgrade works will benefit all passengers in the long-term and will help to ensure that Ryanair passengers suffer fewer adverse weather related disruptions on flights to/from Pau.”
