Ryanair, Italy’s No. 1 airline, today (16 Feb) extended its connecting flights service at Milan Bergamo and Rome Fiumicino Airports, adding a further 27 routes including Gran Canaria, Tenerife, Prague and Ibiza providing Ryanair customers with an expanded route choice of 181 connecting services in total, and the opportunity to book and transfer directly onto connecting Ryanair flights.

Following the successful launch of this service in July and its subsequent expansion, Ryanair customers can now:

– Book connecting flights on 181 routes via Milan, Rome and Porto on Ryanair.com

– Transfer ‘airside’ between connecting flights without having to go ‘landside’

– Have their checked-in baggage transferred through to their final destination

– Use one booking reference for both flights

– Travel to a wider range of destinations across Europe including:

Via Rome Fiumicino

Via Milan Bergamo

This extended connecting flights service is the latest initiative delivered under Ryanair’s “Always Getting Better” programme, with more connections to be rolled out across the Ryanair network later this year.

Ryanair’s Chief Commercial Officer David O’Brien said:

“Ryanair is pleased to extend our connecting flights service at Milan Bergamo and Rome Fiumicino Airports with another 27 routes added, including services to/from Gran Canaria, Tenerife, Prague and Ibiza, offering our customers even more low fare choice with 181 connecting routes in total (potentially rising to 300). These new connections make regional Italy in particular more accessible for European customers in advance of developing more direct routes to the regions in the coming years. Customers flying on these routes will be able to transfer onto their next flight at Milan or Rome without having to go landside, and will have their bags checked through to their final destination.

This connecting flights service, delivered under our “Always Getting Better” programme, is now available on 181 routes via Milan, Rome and Porto.. In addition, Ryanair.com, the world’s most visited airline website, also sells 20 long haul Air Europa routes to North and South America.

To celebrate our extended connecting flights service, we are releasing seats for sale from just €19.99 for travel until the end of February, which are available for booking until midnight Friday (16 Feb). Since these amazing low fares will be snapped up quickly, customers should log onto www.ryanair.com and avoid missing out.”
