Speaking today at the announcement, Ryanair’s Chief Executive, Michael O’Leary said,

“With these 8 new destinations and our first route to Holland (Eindhoven), we will continue our policy of offering choice and low fare competition to British Airways, Alitalia, SAS, KLM, Lufthansa and all of Europe’s high fare carriers. As the comparative fares above show, Europe’s consumers have been and are still being ripped off by the high fare carriers.

“Our new routes to Rome and Milan bring the total number of destinations in Italy to twelve. Ryanair will now carry more passengers than British Airways or Alitalia between the U.K. and Italy.

“Our new routes to Graz and Klagenfurt bring our total number of destinations in Austria to three, these are in addition to our already hugely successful route to Salzburg where we have carried over 150,000 passengers in the first year.

“Our new route to Friedrichshafen is our third destination in Germany along with Frankfurt Hahn and Hamburg(Lubeck).

“And now for the first time the people of Cornwall and the West Country will have access to Ryanair’s low fares with our new domestic route from London to Newquay.

“This Summer Ryanair will fly on 75 routes around Europe, with a fleet of 44 Boeing 737 aircraft, we expect to carry over 12 million passengers who will save over £1.5 billion compared to the high fares being charged by our competitors.”
