Ryanair steps up Frankfurt expansion
Ryanair is ramping up its expansion at Frankfurt airport with 20 new routes and the deployment of seven planes at the home of Lufthansa. Ryanair is starting with two aircraft flying to four tourist destinations in Spain and Portugal from next month, but new routes from October include London, adding to pressure on traditional carriers serving business passengers on that route. The company has previously flown from Hahn airport, about 120km from Frankfurt, but has been increasing its presence at primary airports as it seeks more business passengers and tries to boost passenger numbers to 200m a year by 2024.<br/>
