If you, like us, have sought refuge from the winter blues by browsing lists of underrated, must-visit travel destinations for your next summer getaway, then Ryanair’s newest announcement might give you a few more trip ideas.
Last week, Ryanair CEO Michael O’Leary revealed that the budget airline plans to launch seven new routes this spring, ranging from central European city breaks to balmy Aegean seaside towns.
The list includes Turkish destinations Bodrum and Dalaman, which are well-suited to sun seekers and history nuts alike. Both can be found along Türkiye’s southwest coast, complete with crystal Mediterranean seas and archeological sites aplenty.
Also to get new direct Ryanair links to London are German cities Münster and Lübeck, which are renowned for their lively music scenes, historic architecture and eating and drinking scenes (including, yes, lots of bier and the odd bratwurst). Rounding out the seven are central French city Clermont-Ferrand, arty Austrian metropolis Linz and the Italian city of Reggio Calabria (just over the strait from Sicily).
Here’s the lowdown on when these routes will take off and how much they’ll set you back.
