Ryanair

Ryanair low fares

Ryanair is an Irish registered airline based in Dublin but has aircraft based at secondary airports throughout Europe. Over the last decade Ryanair had grown rapidly following a very focussed business model using one type of aircraft and flying into secondary airports near major centres of population. Purely short-haul, the airline continues to expand throughout Europe and connect more and more countries and cities.

Ryanair operates 140 Boeing 737-800 aircraft which were part of a vast order placed with Boeing soon after September 11th.

The Ryanair Effect

Other airlines either love them, loathe them, hate them, or admire them..but what they don’y want to do is compete with them ! These are the lowest of the low cost carrier where the passenger gets the lowest possible price and then pays extra for everything.. and we mean everything else. Alternative Airlines features Ryanair flights in the booking engine display because we believe that they are an important part of the choice available to travellers on many, many routes and whilst other on-line booking facilities ignore Ryanair, we believe that they are too important to exclude. However we do add an important caveat which is to compare like with like and check all the possible ‘extra’ you may have to purchase on top of the advertised ticket price to ensure the quality of flight you would like.
