Passports at the ready – Ryanair have added five new routes for passengers flying out of Dublin airport including Munich, Napels and Marrakech.

The budget airline will launch new services to Paphop in Cyprus and Marrakech in Morroco in March 2018, while new twice-daily services to Munich and a daily route to Stuttgart will commence this winter.

The popular Naples winter service will also be extended into the summer months.

Dublin Airport have welcomed the expansion as passenger numbers continue to grow.

“We are delighted to see Ryanair expand its services from Dublin Airport offering further flexibility and choice for passengers,” said Vincent Harrison, Dublin Airport Managing Director.

“The two new routes to Germany means that Dublin Airport will welcome a total of 14 new services this year and we now have two new routes in place for 2018.”

Tickets for the new routes will go on sale this September.

To celebrate the launch of the summer 2018 schedule, Ryanair have launched a massive flash sale, with fares from just €12.99 for travel in September and October.

But you better be quick, the sale expires at midnight on Thursday, August 31.

Pre-flight pints could soon be a thing of the past as authorities in the Balearic Islands seek a ban on the sale of alcohol on board planes and in airports.

Tourism executives in Ibiza and Magaluf have asked the European Union to implement stricter rules when in comes to the consumption of alcohol while flying in an effort to battle anti-social tourism.

Pilar Carbonell, Head of Tourism for the islands, wrote in a statement:  "We ask the central government and the European commission to ban the consumption of alcoholic drinks on flights and in airports."

"The aim of the measure is to improve passenger security and also that of security forces in planes and airports in our islands, who are often faced with drunk passengers."

However, it's not yet clear whether the local authorities are seeking to ban drink on all EU flights or just those destined for the Balearic Islands.

According to reports, holiday makers at Dublin airport were not in favour of the strict rule.

"I only misbehave when I don't have a drink," said one.

Another frustrated flyer told Newstalk radio:  "Sure you have to have a drink when you are going on your holidays."

Bad news if you're planning on jetting off anywhere this summer. Ryanair has warned it may need to 'review' its policy regarding carry-on luggage.

The low-cost airline claim that some passengers are boarding planes with bags that exceed the maxium dimensions allowed.

This can result in disruption and delays as cabin crew struggle to fit the bags into the overhead lockers.

With checked baggage costing flyers anything from €15.00 to €60.00, many decide to bend the rules by packing as much as possible into their carry-on cases in order to avoid additional fees.

The airline company said that its flights are 95% full this summer so passengers "must comply" with baggage policies.

Kenny Jacobs, Ryanair's chief marketing officer, also warned that the hand luggage allowance could be reduced if passengers don't change their behaviour.

As it stands, flyers are allowed to carry one bag which must not exceed 55cm x 40cm x 20cm in size and 10kg in weight, as well as one additional small bag, such as a laptop case or handbag.

He said: "We've noticed some customers are bringing larger than permitted bags on board, which can cause delays, and our policy may be reviewed should this practice continue.

"As we enter the peak summer period with many full flights, we urge customers to ensure that they travel with less carry-on bags where possible.

"Our aircraft can only carry 90 larger carry-on bags and our gate agents will rigorously enforce our carry-on policy to avoid flight delays and ensure an enjoyable travel experience for all customers.

"Any customers who wish to carry larger baggage are advised to purchase a checked-in bag."

The news comes after the company launched a huge winter seat sale with over 250,000 seats on sale from €9.99, for travel in October and November.

Earlier this week, Ryanair offered customers an impassable chance to cure their wanderlust by announcing €10 ticket sales for Cyber Week.

Already renowned for its cheap seats, the budget airline has since revealed its ambitions to offer free flights within a decade.

Speaking at the Airport Operators Association conference in London, Ryanair boss Michael O’Leary said he hopes to makes zero fares a reality by offering free flights to passengers while taking a cut of airport revenues for his company.

 

As reported by The Guardian, he said: “The challenge for us in the future is to keep driving air fares down.”

“I have this vision that in the next five to ten years that the air fares on Ryanair will be free, in which case the flights will be full, and we will be making our money out of sharing the airport revenues; of all the people who will be running through airports, and getting a share of the shopping and the retail revenues at airports.”

The 55-year-old Cork native went on to explain that if small airports were to lower airport fees and charges, it would save Ryanair enough money to allow it offer tickets for free.

“I think it will happen.  It just won’t happen at Heathrow or those big hub airports,” he explained.  “But most of the other airports who are looking for big traffic growth, that process is already starting to happen, lowering airport fees and some of the charges.”

For less than, well than most things, today you can grab yourself a flight to a load of European destinations.

Hurrah!

But you only have until 11.30am TODAY. 

Yes Ryanair has just now kicked off its rapid-fire Black Friday sale – and suffice to say it's even better than we hoped.

In fact, the low-cost Irish airline is selling off a load of seats priced at a ridiculous €2 – albeit for a seriously limited time only.

Sure, where would you be having it?

The destinations up for grabs aren't half bad either: think Oslo, London, Nice, and Paris from Dublin, Cork, Derry, Shannon, Kerry, and Knock. And there are further bargains for around a tenner if you reckon that Barcelona or Basel is more up your street.

Did we say HURRAH!?

Ryanair has a handy budget calculator too which allows you to source the cheapest flights – at a glance most of them seem to be in December and January. 

All we can say now is… be QUICK because only a limited number of €2 journeys are on offer and it all wraps up frustratingly fast!

If you haven't had a holiday this year due to time or price constraints then fear not, because Ryanair has just extended its winter sale by 24-hours. 

The airline announced the news today which means its bumper sale – which was supposed to end tonight – is now extended until midnight tomorrow, November 3. 

Seats are going for just €9.99 on a number of routes across Europe, which means you can now fly to Copenhagen, Edinburgh, London or Paris for a very reasonable rate. 

The carrier said it's able to fund the price cuts by taking advantage of new lower fuel costs. 

Ryanair's Robin Kiely told The Mirror: "Due to overwhelming demand, we are extending our winter seat giveaway by 24-hours on over 370 routes in our European network, with 500,000 seats for sale for just €9.99 – making Europe's lowest fares even lower.

"These winter giveaways are only available to book until Midnight Tuesday for travel between November and February next and since these crazy low prices are sure to be snapped up quickly, we urge customers to book them today on www.ryanair.com before they sell out." 

Get to it, people!

If you didn't get a chance to fly away this summer, fear not!

Many of us have a case of wanderlust (but don't have the bank account to match,*sob*).

A new study carried out by Expedia has found the best day and time to buy flight tickets at a bargain price. Yipee!

The report analysed the costs of booking both domestic and international flights and the results show that it might be time to mark off dates on your calendar.

The study found that if you book your tickets on a Friday, Saturday or Monday, they will be over priced as these are typically the days when airlines charge the most. 

Instead, go for a Tuesday to secure your seats. 

And it seems to be all down to timing too as the survey found that you can save up to €250 on international flights if you book 171 days in advance.

If you're heading on a domestic flight, you could pocket up to €50 by booking 57 days ahead of take-off too!

We think it's time to get your bank card and passport at the ready!
