Stephen McNamara, Ryanair's head of communications, has confirmed to the daily papers that the airline made a decision in mid-May to cancel flights to Rhodes and Kos.
"Ryanair is closing routes from various countries to Kos and 13 routes to Rhodes in early October. We estimate that as a result of this, the two Greek islands will lose 23,000 tourists and 18 million euros that could have been brought to the Greek economy during October," he said.
The local Greek authorities failed to honor an agreement to promote Ryanair routes to Kos and Rhodes, McNamara said.
