Ryanair’s Head of Communications Robin Kiely said:

Scottish customers and visitors can look forward to even lower fares when they make advance bookings for their summer or winter holidays, so there’s never been a better time to book a low fare flight with Ryanair.

Glasgow Airport’s Managing Director, Amanda McMillan said:
“The introduction of Ryanair’s direct service to Frankfurt is a first for Glasgow Airport and great news for our passengers. This daily service will link two cities with much in common and further strengthen our European connectivity. Frankfurt is one of the world’s leading financial hubs and home to the European Central Bank, while Glasgow is often cited as Scotland’s economic powerhouse.
Like Glasgow, Frankfurt is also a fantastic city break destination boasting more than 30 museums, a thriving night-time economy and central pedestrian shopping area, stunning botanic gardens and a diverse range of festivals. Ryanair has continually responded to growing demand at Glasgow Airport by adding new routes. Earlier this month, the airline unveiled plans for twice-weekly services to both Madrid and Krakow, which will also launch in October. Today’s announcement is yet more welcome news and will bring the total number of routes the airline operates from Glasgow to 23.”
