Ryanair, Europe’s favourite low fares airline, today (25 April) launched its first ever travel podcast, Try Somewhere New, with series one hosted by TV presenter and travel aficionado Julia Bradbury.

Try Somewhere New with Julia Bradbury will feature three 25-minute episodes, released each Thursday, covering popular destinations across Europe. Episode one focuses on the vineyards and rural charms of Alentejo in Portugal.
