Ryanair applies for UK operating licence

Thursday, 02 Jan, 2018 0

Ryanair is seeking a licence to operate domestic flights in the UK, which it says it might need post-Brexit.

The airline said it had applied to the Civil Aviation Authority for a UK Air Operator’s Certificate.

"Ryanair today confirmed that a subsidiary company Ryanair UK filed an application on 21 December last for an Air Operator’s Certificate with the Civil Aviation Authority in the UK," it said in a statement.

"This may be required for Ryanair’s three UK domestic routes in the event of a hard Brexit in March 2019."

Ryanair operates only a handful of domestic flights in the UK, including from Stansted and Gatwick to Belfast and from Stansted to Edinburgh and Glasgow.
