While Germany remains a major market for the Irish LCC, with over 50,000 flights planned across 2023, it is also one of only two countries currently served by the airline where flight numbers are still below 2019 levels.<\/p>\n<section class=\"emaki-custom-block emaki-custom-note\">\n<div id=\"custom_block_2\" class=\"emaki-custom note\">\n<p>The figures referred to in this article are departures from a specific country per airline.

Speaking to Simple Flying at last month&#8217;s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/simpleflying.com\/tag\/a4e\/\">Airlines For Europe<\/a>\u00a0Summit in Brussels, O&#8217;Leary commented,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;We\u2019ve added capacity [at D\u00fcsseldorf Weeze], we\u2019ve added capacity at Hahn, and some of the other German Airports, but frankly, Germany at the moment is a market that is not particularly aggressive or growing for us. We\u2019ll grow much more dramatically in Italy, Spain, Portugal, Greece, and Poland.
