Ireland West Airport has welcomed Ryanair’s announcement yesterday of a record summer 2025 flight schedule from the airport, including 17 routes to exciting holiday hotspots like Alicante, Faro, Lanzarote, Malaga, and Tenerife, as well as increased frequencies on 8 popular routes, providing Ryanair customers in the West and North-West unbeatable route choice and regular connections at the lowest fares in Europe.
Ryanair continues to invest and grow at Ireland West Airport Knock, where the airline has operated for over 38 years, carrying over 11 million passengers to date and driving invaluable inbound tourism on a year-round basis, as well as promoting important regional development through Ryanair’s support of almost 700 local jobs and supply of connectivity with Europe and its millions of holidaymakers.
Welcoming the news of a record summer schedule at the airport, Joe Gilmore, Managing Director, Ireland West Airport, said, ‘We are delighted to welcome the announcement of Ryanair’s biggest ever flight schedule from the airport for summer 2025, with increased frequencies on a number of our popular routes which represents significant Ryanair traffic growth of over 18% for the airport. This summer will be the busiest one on record, and the choice on offer for customers in the West, Northwest and Midlands regions has never been better, combined with the stress-free experience and convenience of using the airport, we hope these factors will entice new customers to the airport this summer and experience for themselves the benefits of flying from a regional airport like Ireland West. We thank Ryanair for their continued commitment to the airport and look forward to working with the team to grow their route network further from the airport in the future’
Ryanair’s Head of Communications, Jade Kirwan, said: “As Ireland’s No.1 airline, we are pleased to announce our Summer 2025 schedule at Ireland West Airport Knock with 17 routes, including key business travel, city break and top summer destinations, such as Barcelona, Cologne, Lanzarote, Milan, Mallorca, and Tenerife. We’ve also added extra flights on 8 of our most popular routes, including Alicante, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Faro, Liverpool, London (Stansted and Luton) and Malaga, giving our customers in the West and North-West even more choice and regular connections at the lowest fares in Europe. While Ryanair continues to deliver growth for Ireland’s regional airports, including at Ireland West Airport Knock, we call on the new Irish Government to enable airlines, like Ryanair, to continue to invest and grow at Ireland’s regional airports by expanding the scope for the 2026-2030 Regional Airports Programme to at least 3m passenger p.a., which would allow regional airports to grow traffic without being penalised for doing so”
