Ryanair, Europe’s No.1 airline, today (Tues, 26 Aug) announced a landmark partnership agreement with Booking Holdings, which includes global travel brands Booking.com, KAYAK, Priceline, and Agoda.

This partnership means that customers booking with Booking Holdings’ brands will now have access to Ryanair flights across the airline’s network of 235+ destinations, with full price transparency of Ryanair products.
