OREANDA-NEWS. December 15, 2010. The Irish airline, Ryanair, which launches its first routes from Tallinn, will soon offer flights to eight destinations. This week, the airline will begin flights to Dusseldorf, Oslo, Stockholm, Dublin and Milano.

On January 10, Ryanair will expand its Tallinn flights to London and Edinburgh. Another UK flight to East-Midland will begin operating in the summer.

Ryanair has said that its expansion to Tallinn was motivated by the Estonian government's decision to allocate extra money to Tallinn Airport as well as the capital's position next year as the European Culture Capital.
