New Mediterranean air route from Belfast
Ryanair has announced another new route from Belfast International Airport.
From October the low cost airline will be flying twice weekly to Malta as part of its winter 2017 schedule, which will go on sale soon.
Ryanair celebrated its new Belfast-Malta route by releasing seats for sale across its European network at prices starting from just ÂŁ9.99 for travel in March and April.
Ryanair’s Head of Communications, Robin Kiely said:
“We are pleased to announce a new route from Belfast to Malta, with a twice weekly service starting in October, as part of our Belfast winter 2017 schedule, which will be launched soon.
"Our summer schedule, which commences in March, is already attracting record bookings, including our new routes to Faro, Lanzarote, Malaga, Tenerife and Warsaw.
"Belfast customers and visitors can look forward to even lower fares when they make advance bookings for their summer or winter holidays, so there’s never been a better time to book a low fare flight.
"To celebrate our new Belfast-Malta route, we are releasing seats for sale across our European network from just £9.99 for travel in March and April, which are available for booking until midnight Thursday (2 Mar). Since these amazing low fares will be snapped up quickly, customers should log on and avoid missing out.”
Belfast International Airport’s Business Development Director, Uel Hoey said:
“We are delighted to see Ryanair continue to grow from Belfast International Airport with the addition of their fourteenth route since commencement of operations in summer 2016.
"A new service to Malta is a particularly pleasing development as it has traditionally been a good seller from Northern Ireland, and we believe that its popularity will be even more enhanced given the prevailing strength of the western and central Mediterranean holiday markets.”
