Ryanair Launches Flights From Bournemouth
Ryanair has announced this week that it will begin operating new flights from Bournemouth.From April the low-cost airline will base a £35 million Boeing 737-800 in Bournemouth to operate its five new routes to Malaga, Murcia, Nantes, Palma and Wroclaw from England's south coast.
The new flights will run alongside Ryanair's existing routes to Alicante, Barcelona, Dublin, Glasgow, Marseille, Milan and Pisa from Bournemouth.
Ryanair's director of scheduled revenue, Sean Coyle, said: "Bournemouth Airport has competed successfully against airports across Europe to be our 24th European base.
"We look forward to delivering even more passenger savings on even more routes from the south coast thanks to Ryanair's guaranteed lowest fares. With this new base, Ryanair will deliver significant economic benefits throughout the region, capitalising on its huge tourism potential by making it cheaper and easier than ever before to get here."
He added that to celebrate the launch of the new base passengers who book a return flight from Bournemouth with Ryanair before midnight today will receive a free bonus return flight with "no taxes, no fees and no charges" on a choice of over 200 routes.
