Apologies for resurrecting this very old thread but i can't see any more recent general Cork Airport thread.
Does anyone know if the Ryanair Cork - Naples flights are due to return for the Summer 2022 season?
These were operating in 2021 but haven't been announced for 2022 yet. I think these were operated by Malta Air in 2021 so obviously not Cork based aircraft so maybe this would mean a later announcement but not sure. Would appreciate if anyone know any more, thanks!
Just looking at the new runway I'm wondering did they level it out a bit? It doesn't look as much of a slope on the 34 end or maybe its just my eyes deceiving me.
SAS look set to announce a new Cork-Scandinavian route for Summer 2025 if current rumours come to fruition..
that would be a pleasant surprise. Would assume CPH?
edit - they just announced 15 new routes for S25 and Cork wasn’t on the list so I guess it’s not happening.
People probably assumed the 4 letter word on there teaser was Cork. Lyon and Bodo were announced.
If you go onto the Skyscanner mobile app and select anytime in July, anywhere in the world and direct flights, it lists Izmir in Turkey from Cork Airport. When you click it, it doesn't show a direct route. However, when you just click anywhere in July and anywhere in the world, it lists multiple Turkish routes with a transfer, only narrowing down to just Izmir when you choose direct
Hmm
ORK Izmir was very popular before. Kusadasi is hugely popular with the Irish for holidays. Wouldn’t be surprised to see Sunexpress do ORK ADB. They did chartered flights for Sunway in 2015.
To add to the SunExpress rumour:

What about getting Malta back? Did that route well in the past? Also anything on getting the Iberia route to Madrid back too
Ryanair operate Malta from Shannon now, I don't see them operating the route from both airports simultaneously.
Cork Izmir should be on sale later on.

anyone know who flies on the 320 neo G-KELT? Heard it’s regular into ORK
Its a for charter business jet owned by Acropolis Aviation based at Farnborough. I doubt that the make their clients details public.
Thought it was John Magnier's plane.
Are there any chances of transatlantic flights to the US are coming back to Cork?
I recall the odd flight from Boston to Cork, but also one to some smaller airport near NYC.
No. Not without a runway extension.
The previous flights were Norwegian losing money hand over fist flying weight limited (to get out of Cork and still make the US) 737s to regional airports. The Boston flights didn't go to Logan.
