Cork Airport Launches 2 new Winter routes with Ryanair for 2024

Ryanair, Ireland’s No. 1 airline, today (2nd Oct) launched its Winter 2024 schedule for Cork, with 23 routes including 2 exciting new routes to Brussels Charleroi & Rome Ciampino. Ryanair has also added extra Winter flights on 2 of its most popular Cork routes – Lanzarote & Manchester – giving Ryanair customers in the Munster and South-Leinster regions unbeatable choice and regular connections at the lowest fares in Europe.

Ryanair has operated to/from Cork for the past 37 years, carrying over 20 million passengers to date and investing heavily in the region. The vast majority of Ryanair’s record Winter 2024 schedule will operate on the airline’s 3 Cork-based aircraft – 1 of which is a new enviro-efficient B-737 Gamechanger, which cuts CO2 emissions by 16% and noise by 40% – representing a $300m investment in Cork and supporting over 1,500 local jobs, while driving year-round inbound tourism at the same time.

Speaking from Cork, Ryanair’s Head of Communications, Jade Kirwan said:

“As Ireland’s and Cork’s no.1 airline, Ryanair is pleased to announce our Winter 2024 schedule for Cork, with 23 routes including 2 new routes to Brussels Charleroi & Rome Ciampino, as well as extra flights on 2 of our most popular Cork routes – Lanzarote & Manchester – giving our Munster and South-Leinster customers even more choice and regular connections at the lowest fares in Europe.

Ryanair is committed to Ireland’s regional development which is reflected in our +85% traffic growth at Cork since 2019/pre-Covid. We’ve operated to/from Cork for over 37 years now, during which time we have invested heavily in the region, including our 3 Cork-based aircraft which represent a $300m investment and our support of over 1,500 local jobs.

 We look forward to continuing our positive relationship with Cork Airport to further deliver important regional development, connectivity, jobs, and year-round tourism in the years ahead.”

“As Ireland’s fastest growing state airport this year so far, it is great to welcome the team from Ryanair to Cork today as they announce their exciting Winter schedule. Ryanair will offer an extensive range of routes from Cork Airport this Winter, including some superb sun destinations like Faro, Fuerteventura, Seville, and Valencia along with great cities like Brussels, Edinburgh, Paris, Rome, and Venice. I’d like to thank Ryanair for their continued commitment and investment in Cork Airport and we look forward to fostering that great working relationship into the future.”
