Air travel nationally and internationally is living a delicate and widespread particularly difficult. The reasons are in the public domain and fill the columns of the newspapers: the serious global financial economic crisis, the pro-increase the cost of fuel that shows no signs of decreasing, despite the ups and evaluation of the "brent", the lower spending capacity of households and Companies, which cut the budgets monthly starting from your air travel as "leisure" and all that is not essential. In this scenario, which has seen the bankruptcy of several airlines including "traditional" and large carriers indisputably important and innovative and dynamic as Ryanair, the largest European low cost, have been forced to decisions before and unthinkable for unpopular promote the efficiency of the system, starting with the downsizing of the network (so far always in constant expansion) and the reduction of certain destinations: first with the flight time relatively longer (and therefore higher costs).
Regarding specifically the airport of Lamezia Terme, Sacal, driving with his chairman Eugenio Ripepe sought from the very beginning (with talks already since last June) to counter the probable cancellation of the direct link to the capital, operating and maintaining a strategic and particularly pleasing to the user calabrese.

It should be recalled that following the entry into operation of this flight low cost, very strong willed and Sacal by the Regional Department of Tourism which has the approval for the initiative and skillful negotiations with several meetings in Dublin and Italy, not only is recorded a more positive response in terms of filling the air, but it is a serious and concrete contribution (also accepted by most parties) to a whole new set of managerial, commercial, tourist and real estate Calabrians lately, constantly growing that the maintenance of this link is an "assets" to be.
"In the context of pragmatic and strategic actions carried out by Sacal - says the president Ripepe - one of the first objectives was precisely to recover the trade agreement with the Irish carrier, trying to meet the difficulties and then relaunching with a new plan collaboration.
A negotiation is not easy, but succeeded, thanks to the determination with which it was addressed and the good relations maintained with the above carrier.
This result is true not only in itself but also as a good omen and viaticum for possible further and more extensive agreements. "
The Ryanair flight to London Stansted (which then shows only suspended for the month of November, having been active until last October) so the operation resumed with effect from December 6 pv. Will be initially twice a week: and the exact days of Saturday and Tuesday, for the entire winter season and up to 28 March 2009. Then go into force on summer hours and the connection will double the frequency to four flights a week.
"The flight will be restored - clarifies Ripepe -. Sacal thus once again played its part: it is, and must remain 'technical', its an airport management company. Of Calabria and the main tour operators, then, is to promote the success of the flight (and therefore its maintenance) ensuring the filling and at the same time trying to encourage the incoming, the arrival and stay of the English in Calabria. The more our wish is to record the active mobilization of those in recent days have sounded the alarm bell ... worried by cancellation of the flight, and now, settled the matter, are ideally and specifically asked to bring their active contribution.
