Ryanair announces 39 new Spanish routes
Ryanair has announced 39 new routes to and from Spanish airports despite a sharp drop in tourism in the country.
Ryanair’s overall traffic will grow by about 15% this year, from 58m to 67m passengers, Ryanair chief executive Michael O’Leary told a news conference in Madrid.
‘A significant amount of that growth is already allocated to Spain, where in 2009 alone Ryanair will open up 39 new routes to and from eight Spanish airports – Alicante, Girona, Granada, Ibiza, Palma, Reus, Santander and Seville,’ said Mr O’Leary.
