I am booked to fly to Lanzarote from Stansted with Ryanair on 04/08.
Looking at the Ryanair website all seems fine and checking in is now open online.
Looking directly at the Stansted airport website however, there are no Ryanair flights due to travel on that day.
I am booked (including hotel) through last-minute.com and their website is still offering this package.

Am I right in thinking this flight has possibly been pulled and no-one is mentioning it yet?

    The Ryanair website is going to be more accurate than an airport website. Ryanair have a shedload of planes based at Stansted, i doubt that is accurate and every single one wont be operating.

    I didnt even know you could look that far ahead in advance on an airport website anyway.

    The point still stands though about how accurate an airport website is going to be at the moment, the website of an airline is always going to be more accurate anyway.
