In London, Ryanair’s Michael O’Leary said:

“We are pleased to launch our London summer 2018 schedule, which includes 5 new Stansted routes to Aalborg, Dusseldorf Weeze, Frankfurt, Oradea and Pardubice, a new Luton route to Bydgoszcz, and 168 routes in total, which will deliver 24.8m customers through London’s airports this year. UK customers and visitors are booking our summer and winter 2017 seats in record numbers as fares continue to fall, so there’s never been a better time to book a low fare flight on Ryanair.

We remain concerned at the uncertainty which surrounds the terms of the UK’s departure from the EU in March ’19. While we continue to campaign for the UK to remain in the EU Open Skies agreement, we caution that should the UK leave, there may not be sufficient time, or goodwill on both sides, to negotiate a timely replacement bilateral which could result in a disruption of flights between the UK and Europe for a period of time from April ’19 onwards, and/or the cancellation of flights and routes, and the movement of our based aircraft to Continental Europe.

To celebrate the launch of our London summer 2018 schedule we are releasing seats for sale from just £14.99 for travel in September which are available for booking until midnight Monday (4 Sep). Since these amazing low prices will be snapped up quickly, customers should log onto www.ryanair.com and avoid missing out.”
