Ryanair launched its Belfast Winter 2019 schedule

DUBLIN, Ireland, 2019-Mar-11 — /Travel PR News/ — Ryanair, Europe’s No.1 airline, today (7 Mar) launched its Belfast Winter schedule (2019), with 9 routes which will deliver 850,000 customers p.a. at Belfast Airport.

Ryanair’s Belfast W19 schedule will deliver:

• 9 routes to Alicante (3 pw), Bergamo (2), Berlin Schonefeld (2), Krakow (3), Lanzarote (1), London Stansted (2), Malaga (3), Manchester (2) & Tenerife South (2)
• 850,000 customers p.a.
• 640* “on-site” jobs p.a.

Ryanair will reduce its Belfast schedule in winter 2019 due to the weak UK market, and UK Air Passenger Duty (APD), which is currently payable at both airports on domestic routes (£26).

Belfast consumers and visitors can now book their holidays as far out as March 2020, enjoying even lower fares and Ryanair’s 2019 customer care improvements, including:

• Lowest Fares – find a cheaper fare within 3 hours, get paid the difference plus €5 MyRyanair credit

Ryanair has launched a seat sale on its European network with fares available from just £14.99, for travel in April and May, which must be booked by midnight Sunday (10 Mar), only on the Ryanair.com website.

Ryanair’s Chief Commercial Officer, David O’Brien said:

“Ryanair is pleased to announce our Belfast Winter 2019 schedule with 9 routes,which will deliver 850,000 customers p.a. at Belfast Airport. Regrettably, at a time of high fuel costs, low fares, and a weak UK market, Ryanair’s Belfast services will be reduced, pending the abolition of Air Passenger Duty (APD) in Northern Ireland.”
