Ryanair announced that last year.
I would rather stay in Europe than contemplate flying the Atlantic with O'Leary's torture machine.

Third highest lowest elevation would be Belgium ?

No pay toilets ! I've already decide to wear bermuda swimsuits and 'forget' myself on my seat if it ever becomes pay toilets...

Third highest lowest elevation would be Belgium ?- nope the Ardennes are small mountains. One of the smallest EU countries and I think one of the most densely populated.

2. How is called the highest situated mountain hotel (NOT hut!) in the Alps, in which country and in which part of this country does it be?>

Still looking for this - I'll take a stab - it's on the Bernina Pass - at Bernina Ospiz (or Alpe Grumn?), Switzerland - Hotel Bernina? All a guess but few hotels higher than this one I think.

I still think Austria has the highest mean elevation within the EU, as I said upthread.
It has mountains and no coast to lower the elevation so much.

In order to help you: it's NOT in Switzerland (Gornergrat, the highest Swiss hotel is at 3090m/10140ft only), the one that I mean is at 3212 metres/10540ft.
