On Tuesday (September 24, 2024), Ryanair announced the launch of their winter 2024/25 flying program to/from Shannon Airport.  The schedule will feature 17 routes, including exciting city break getaways like Budapest, Edinburgh, Krakow, Liverpool, London and Manchester, as well as fun and sun hotspots such as Alicante, Lanzarote, Malaga and Tenerife.  Ryanair will also increase frequencies to five of the most popular destinations from Shannon last winter, namely Kaunas, Krakow, London, Manchester and Tenerife.  The carrier’s winter Shannon Airport schedule will operate with three Shannon-based aircraft, including two fuel-efficient Boeing 737-8200 Gamechangers.


In Tuesday’s announcement, Ryanair’s Head of Communications, Jade Kirwan, said,

 

“As Ireland’s no.1 airline, Ryanair is pleased to announce our Winter 2024 schedule for Shannon, with 17 routes (including key business travel, city break and Winter sun destinations) and extra flights on 5 of those routes – Kaunas, Krakow, London, Manchester, and Tenerife – giving our mid-west customers even more choice and regular connections at the lowest fares in Europe.

 

“Today’s announcement comes as Ryanair carries our 20 millionth passenger through Shannon Airport to date.  A significant milestone and reflection of our 37+ years of operating to/from Shannon, during which time we have invested heavily in the region, including our 3 Shannon-based aircraft which represent a $300m investment and support over 1,000 local jobs, as well as our €10m state-of-the art maintenance facility – our first in Ireland – that created a further 200 high skill, high paid jobs in the region.”

Also commenting on Ryanair’s winter 2024/25 Shannon Airport schedule, Shannon Airport Group’s CEO, Mary Considine, said,

 

“We are excited to welcome Ryanair’s winter schedule, with 17 routes and increased frequency on five key Shannon Airport services to Tenerife, Kaunas, Krakow, London, and Manchester creating an additional seat capacity of almost 30,000, a 5% increase over last winter.

 

“In addition, we are delighted to celebrate a significant milestone as Ryanair has carried over 20 million passengers through Shannon Airport since they began their Shannon operation in 1987. To mark this occasion, this morning we were thrilled to present a lucky Ryanair passenger with a pair of tickets to a destination of their choice from Shannon with Ryanair.

 

“We look forward to continuing our strong partnership with Ryanair, whose investment supports over 1,000 jobs and underscores their vital economic contribution to enhancing connectivity for both business and leisure travel.”
