The Irish airline, headed up in Dublin, will operate more than 500 routes during the peak season next year to destinations across Europe.
The 24 new routes will deliver passengers from airports across Britain – bamely Bournemouth, Birmingham, Liverpool, London Luton, Stansted, Manchester and Newcastle – to sunny spots across Europe, including Menorca, Fuerteventura, Ibiza, Paphos and Gran Canaria.

“Having added 560 new routes and opened 14 bases throughout the last 12 months, Ryanair is now looking ahead to S’22 and the addition of 65 new B737-8200 ‘Gamechanger’ aircraft to its fleet, which offer 4% more seats, 16% less fuel and a 40% reduction in noise emissions, making the S’22 schedule the most sustainable and environmentally friendly to date.”
