Ryanair to restore all Cork Airport flights from summer

Ryanair is restoring all pre-Covid flights from Cork Airport from next summer, while it will add services to Birmingham and Edinburgh from December. The airline confirmed it planned to restore its two-aircraft base at Cork after striking a deal on charges with State airport company DAA, which is extending airline incentives there to October 2022. However, the airline warned that a Government failure to fund a similar extension at Dublin Airport would leave the capital with fewer than two-thirds of its pre-pandemic services next summer. Ryanair’s move at Cork means that from December it will begin flying to destinations in Spain, including Alicante and Malaga, Poznan and Gdansk in Poland, several London airports and Liverpool for winter. Ryanair is adding services to Birmingham and Edinburgh, previously flown by Aer Lingus Regional carrier Stobart Air, which folded in June, bringing its winter routes to 12. Next summer the carrier will fly 20 routes to Britain, France, Italy, Poland, Portugal and Spain, including Carcassonne, Faro, Lanzarote, Milan Bergamo and Tenerife.<br/>
