Ryanair, Europe’s No.1 airline, today (01 July) celebrated the opening of its new Chania base. With one based aircraft, 107 weekly flights across 42 routes – including 18 new – the opening of this new base will connect Chania to a host of international destinations across Europe from today. As peak summer season approaches, this new base will boost air traffic and the tourism industry in the region while vaccination programmes continue across Europe.

Greek consumers can now book a much-deserved city break from Chania to popular European hotspots such as Barcelona, Vienna, Milan, Rome, London, and more on even lower fares and with the option to avail of Ryanair’s zero change fee should plans change.

Speaking at the opening of the new Chania base, Ryanair’s Director of Marketing and Digital, Dara Brady said:

“We’re delighted to be in Chania today for the opening of our new Greek base. Air traffic is set to soar throughout the peak summer months of July & August as vaccination rollout programmes continue and with 42 routes (18 new) to choose from, our Greek customers in Chania have a host of popular European destinations to choose from this summer for that much-deserved break. 

Mindful that Covid restrictions change regularly, customers can now book flights for a well-deserved getaway, knowing that if they need to postpone or change their travel dates, they can do so up to two times with a zero-change fee until the end of December 2021.

To celebrate the official opening of our Chania base and 18 new summer ‘21 routes, we are launching a seat sale with fares available from €19.99 for travel until October, which must be booked by midnight Saturday, 3^rd  July 2021. Since these amazing low fares will be snapped up quickly, customers should log onto www.ryanair.com and avoid missing out.”

George Vilos, Fraport Greece’s Executive Director, Commercial & Business Development, said:

“We warmly welcome Ryanair’s decision to further expand its operations out of Rhodes, Corfu and Chania airports by establishing new summer bases, offering a significant number of new international routes.  The strength of the specific destinations, which attract the global attention and preference even under the current challenging conditions, combined with the unmatched Greek hospitality will definitely support Ryanair’s decision, paving the way for further development in the near future. From our side we wish Ryanair every success to this new endeavor and we are ready to welcome travelers from all over the world at the fully upgraded Rhodes, Corfu and Chania airports.”

24 EU States Now Issue Covid Certs But Ireland Will Delay Another 19 Days – At Least

Ryanair, Europe’s largest airline today (1 Jul) calls on Transport Minister Eamonn Ryan to explain why Ireland hasn’t issued any Digital Covid Certs, while 24 other EU countries started issuing Covid Certs in June, which come into force from today, 1^st July.

This ongoing mismanagement by the Irish Govt. will result in Ireland losing even more connectivity with its European neighbours as the Irish Govt. fails to progress Ireland’s post-Covid recovery (see maps attached);

• EU Covid Certs delayed until 19^th July blocking over 1.5m fully vaccinated Irish adults from traveling freely – despite 24 other EU countries already issuing their Digital Covid Certs in June.
• Antigen testing not accepted for travel to/from Ireland while most other EU countries allow Antigen testing.
• No Covid-19 data has been supplied by the Dept. of Health to ECDC (European Centre for Disease Control) for weeks now – portraying Ireland as a forgotten nation on the periphery of Europe.
• Indoor dining still banned – yet it is allowed in every other country in Europe – leaving Irish Tourism at a huge disadvantage and the laughing stock of European tourism.

With less than 45 people in hospitals and less than 15 in ICU’s, it is time for the Irish Govt. to stop dithering and take immediate action. Minister Ryan must start by confirming that vaccinated Irish citizens can access their Digital Covid Certs today (1^st July) so that fully vaccinated Irish citizens have the same opportunities to travel freely within the EU this summer. Why can fully vaccinated EU citizens have freedom of movement while Irish citizens continue to be locked up by NPHET’s absurd over caution about a Delta variant in the UK?

Ryanair’s CEO Eddie Wilson said:

“The Irish Govt. is doing untold damage to our economy and tourism infrastructure as our reopening plans lag way behind every other country in Europe. With over 1.5m Irish adults fully vaccinated, less than 45 Covid patients in hospital and less than 15 in ICU’s – there is no justification for any further delays. Ireland continues to be locked down because of a scariant variant in a different country (the UK). Case rates in Ireland are very low. Ireland continues to be the outlier in Europe, to the point where even the European Centre for Disease Control (ECDC) no longer receives any data on testing or positivity rates from NPHET or the Department of Health. Why not?

Digital Covid Certs launch today, with over 24 EU countries already implementing the system since June and allowing their citizens to travel freely this summer. Why is Ireland late at every single turn compared to our European neighbours? Rapid antigen testing is readily accepted across Europe, making it easier for families to travel this summer, but NPHET continues to ignore this data and rejects their use without reasonable justification.

Ryanair calls on Minister Ryan and the Irish Govt. to proceed immediately with its reopening plans, switch on the Digital Covid Cert today for all vaccinated (1.5m) Irish citizens and allow our people travel freely this summer so that our tourism and hospitality can recover from NPHET’s mistakes and mismanagement”.

2 Αεροδρομια, 36 Δρομολογια, 6 Νεα, 114 Πτησεις Τη Βδομαδα

Η Ryanair, η No.1 αερογραμμή της Ευρώπης, γιόρτασε σήμερα (1^η Ιουλίου) το μεγαλύτερο καλοκαιρινό πρόγραμμα που δημιούργησε ποτέ για την Κύπρο. Πραγματοποιώντας 36 δρομολόγια από τα δυο αεροδρόμια της χώρας, το καλοκαιρινό πρόγραμμα για το 2021, περιλαμβάνει 6 νέα δρομολόγια προς Μπολόνια, Μπάρι, Κέρκυρα, Μασσαλία, Ρόδο, Τρεβίζο Βενετία – όλα από την Πάφο και Λονδίνο Στάνστεντ  και Βιέννη από Λάρνακα. Καθώς η κορύφωση της καλοκαιρινής περιόδου πλησιάζει, αυτά τα νέα δρομολόγια θα δώσουν ώθηση τόσο την επιβατική κίνηση όσο και στην τουριστική βιομηχανία της Κύπρου, καθώς το πρόγραμμα εμβολιασμού συνεχίζεται και η Ευρώπη ανοίγει έγκαιρα για την καλοκαιρινή σεζόν.

Οι Κύπριοι επιβάτες μπορούν να κλείσουν τις πολυαναμενώμενες καλοκαιρινές τους διακοπές σε Ευρωπαϊκούς προορισμούς όπως είναι το Μπάρι, η Κέρκυρα, η Ρόδος, η Βενετία με ακόμα πιο χαμηλά ναύλα ενώ έχουν την επιλογή να επωφεληθούν από το μηδενικό τέλος σε περίπτωση αλλαγής των σχεδίων τους.

Μιλώντας από την Πάφο, ο Διευθυντής Marketing & Digital της Ryanair, Dara Brady, είπε:

 “Είμαστε πολύ χαρούμενοι που βρισκόμαστε σήμερα στην Κύπρο καθώς ξεκινά επίσημα το μεγαλύτερο καλοκαιρινό πρόγραμμα που κάναμε ποτέ από την Πάφο και τη Λάρνακα. Η εναέρια κυκλοφορία αναμένεται να αυξηθεί  ιδιαίτερα τους καλοκαιρινούς μήνες Ιούλιο και Αύγουστο, καθώς τα προγράμματα εμβολιασμού προχωρούν ενώ με τα 36 δρομολόγια (6 καινούρια), οι κύπριοι επιβάτες έχουν μια σειρά από ευρωπαϊκούς προορισμούς για να διαλέξουν αυτό το καλοκαίρι.

Έχοντας υπόψη ότι οι περιορισμοί για τον Covid αλλάζουν τακτικά, οι επιβάτες μπορούν να κάνουν κράτηση για πτήσεις για μια απόδραση, γνωρίζοντας ότι αν χρειαστεί να αλλάξουν τις ημερομηνίες του ταξιδιού τους, μπορούν να το κάνουν έως και δύο φορές με μηδενικό κόστος έως το τέλος Δεκεμβρίου.

Για να γιορτάσουμε την επίσημη έναρξη το καλοκαιρινού προγράμματος στην Κύπρο, διαθέτουμε θέσεις προς πώληση από την Κύπρο από μόλις 19,99€ για ταξίδια που θα πραγματοποιηθούν έως το τέλος Οκτωβρίου 2021, οι οποίες είναι διαθέσιμες μέχρι τα μεσάνυχτα του Σαββάτου, 3 Ιουλίου. Δεδομένου ότι αυτές οι χαμηλές τιμές εξαφανίζονται γρήγορα, οι επιβάτες πρέπει να επισκεφτούν το www.ryanair.com έγκαιρα έτσι ώστε μην χάσουν αυτή την ευκαιρία.”

Η Μαρία Κουρούπη, Ανώτερη Διευθύντρια Αεροπορικής Ανάπτυξης και Επικοινωνίας της Hermes Airports, δήλωσε:

«Είμαστε πολύ χαρούμενοι που η Ryanair επαναρχίζει το μεγαλύτερο πτητικό πρόγραμμά της από την βάση της  στην Πάφο. Είναι πολύ σημαντικό για εμάς, μετά από μια δύσκολη περίοδο, να βλέπουμε την μεγαλύτερη αερογραμμή στην Πάφο να διατηρεί την εμπιστοσύνη της στην Κύπρο».

Zadar airport’s Director, Josip Klišmanić: 

“The fact that Ryanair, Europe’s No.1 airline, is reopening its base in Zadar brings us much joy. Especially since it will connect Croatia as much as 37 European destinations.  In the last 14 years Ryanair is Zadar airports the most important partner. Coming back with the base and 37 routes, of which is even 17 new routes in the season and challenging times in which we must fight for every passenger is not just good news, but it is a confirmation of our excellent cooperation with Ryanair. We hope that it will be on such level in the future.”
