Major low-cost carrier Ryanair has released its Winter 2024 schedule for Cork. The line-up features 23 routes, including two new destinations: Brussels Charleroi and Rome Ciampino.
Additionally, the carrier has increased flights on two popular Cork routes – Lanzarote and Manchester. This expansion offers Ryanair customers in the Munster and South-Leinster areas unrivalled choices and frequent connections at Europe’s most competitive fares.
37 Years in Cork
For 37 years, Ryanair has served Cork, transporting over 20 million passengers and making significant investments in the region. The airline will operate most of its record Winter 2024 schedule using three Cork-based aircraft.
One of these is a new, environmentally friendly B737 Gamechanger, which reduces CO2 emissions by 16% and noise by 40%. This $300 million investment in Cork supports more than 1,500 local jobs while boosting year-round inbound tourism.
To mark the launch of its extensive Winter 2024 schedule and new Cork routes, Ryanair is offering a limited-time seat sale. Fares start from just €21.99, available exclusively at the airline website.
