T
o celebrate our

which are available for booking until Tuesday (17 Jan). Since these
amazing low prices will be snapped up quickly, customers should log

Divisional CEO at London Stansted, Andrew Cowan said:
"Today's announcement by Ryanair is fantastic news for Stansted
Airport and passengers from across the east of England and London.
Ryanair is an important and valued partner for us at Stansted and
we're delighted to support the airline's exciting expansion plans
for the summer, which will help ensure Stansted remains one of the
UK's fastest growing airports and see us serve well over 25 million
passengers a year within the next 12 months.
Stansted sits at the heart of one of the UK's most innovative and
rapidly developing growth corridors between London and Cambridge,
so the new destinations and increase in flights on key routes will
offer passengers and businesses even more choice at great value.
This builds on the strength of Ryanair's extensive network at
Stansted that now serves 140 destinations from the airline's
largest base in Europe."
