Ryanair Extends Ski Offering

Ryanair has revamped its winter flying programme to include 58 routes to European ski airports from the UK. The low-cost airline is set to serve popular winter sports destinations from London, Glasgow, Liverpool, East Midlands, Bristol, Bournemouth, Newcastle, Blackpool and Doncaster.

Important ski gateway airports including Grenoble, Salzburg, Friedrichshafen, Turin, Milan and Barcelona are also covered. Ryanair Head of sales and marketing Sinead Finn said: "Our gateway airports are convenient and situated for easy access to the resorts that skiers want to go to.

Finn added: "Getting to famous French resorts such as Val D'Isere, Meribel and Courcheval is so simple from Grenoble. And Friedrichshafen offers the fastest access to Swiss and Austrian mega-resorts like Davos, Klosters and St Anton”.

A statement from Ryanair confirmed that the additional cheap flights come from an increased demand for ski holidays from the UK this year. Ryanair flights are being offered at no charge, other than fees and taxes.
