Niall Gibbons, CEO of Tourism Ireland said:

“Today’s announcement is great news for tourism to the west coast of Ireland – expanding the options for holidaymakers from the North West of England and Bristol to experience the wonders of the Wild Atlantic Way. We already work closely with Ryanair and look forward to cooperating with them to maximise the promotion of the new flights.”

As our nearest neighbour and our largest market for overseas tourism, Britain remains a priority for us and we have a very busy marketing programme rolling out there right now. As an island the importance of convenient flights cannot be overstated – they are critical to achieving growth in inbound tourism.”
