Ryanair 20th birthday sale
21.05.08
Ryanair celebrated 20 years of flights from Liverpool Airport yesterday. To mark the occasion, it is offering 100,000 one-way tickets for £5 from the airport.
The budget airline has flown more than 9 million passengers via the airport since first opening a route to Dublin in 1988. It now flies 2.5 million passengers a year to 38 destinations, which represents a 10-fold increase in passengers in 10 years.
A spokesman for the airport said: ‘Ryanair were a pioneer of low-cost travel and certainly the first to offer such flights from Liverpool. The airport is unrecognisable from what it was like just 10 years ago, let alone 20 years ago.'
'There is no doubt that Ryanair’s decision to make Liverpool one of its key European bases just 3 years ago has helped to further transform the airport.’
