LONDON (Alliance News) - Ryanair Holdings PLC Wednesday said it will open a new base at Corfu from next April, its fourth in Greece.
The new base will include one based aircraft at a total investment of USD100 million, 11 new routes to Birmingham, Bratislava, Budapest, Cologne, Rome, Katowice, Poznan, Pisa, Rzeszow, Venice and Warsaw, as well as more flights to Brussels Charleroi, East Midlands, London Stansted and Milan Bergamo.
It will deliver 300,000 customers per year and support 225 on-site jobs as it doubles its Corfu traffic, the low-cost airline said.
"Greece is a significant growth market for Ryanair, and we will continue to connect our Greek airports with Europe's major cities such as Brussels, London and Milan, making Ryanair the ideal choice for business and leisure customers," Chief Commercial Officer David O'Brien said in a statement.
Shares in Ryanair were trading down 0.2% at EUR12.87 Wednesday morning.
