OREANDA-NEWS.  Ryanair, Ireland’s favourite airline, today (20 Feb) added extra flights on 4 Dublin routes to Barcelona, Faro, Nice and Paris Beauvais, offering passengers even greater choice this summer at Dublin Airport.
 
These increases are in addition to Ryanair’s 9 new Dublin routes to Almeria, Bari, Basel, Bucharest, Chania, Comiso, Lisbon, Marrakesh and Prague, which will start in April, and extra flights on its Birmingham, Bristol, Edinburgh, London Stansted, Madrid and Manchester routes. This growth is in direct response to the Government’s decision to scrap the travel tax from April this year and will result in over 700,000 extra passengers at Dublin Airport this year, sustaining over 700* additional “on site” jobs.
