RYANAIR WEBSITE TO SELL AIR EUROPA LONG HAUL FLIGHTS
ROUTES TO ARGENTINA, BRAZIL, CUBA, MEXICO & USA ON SALE ON
RYANAIR.COM
Ryanair,
Spain's No.1 airline, today (23 May) announced a new flight
partnership with Air Europa, which will allow its 130m customers to
book Air Europa long haul flights on the Ryanair.com website. From
today, customers can browse and book Air Europa flights on 20 long
haul routes from Madrid to 16 countries in North, Central and South
America, including Argentina, Brazil, Cuba, Mexico and the United
States.
This
new Air Europa partnership is the latest initiative delivered under
Year 4 of Ryanair's "Always Getting Better" customer experience
programme, and follows the launch of Ryanair's connecting flight
service via Rome Fiumicino last week.
The
second phase of this Air Europa partnership will be launched later
this year and will allow Ryanair customers to connect onto Air
Europa long haul flights through Madrid. Ryanair is
continuing
its discussions with a number of other long haul airlines on
potential feed and connecting flight partnerships.
In Madrid, Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary said:
"We are pleased to announce this exciting partnership with Air
Europa, which allows our customers to browse and book flights on 20
long routes from Madrid to exciting cities in Argentina, Brazil,
Cuba, Mexico and the USA on the Ryanair.com website. Ryanair
operates over 50 short haul routes to/from Madrid and now our
customers can book flights on Air Europa long haul
routes to destinations including Buenos Aires, Havana and New
York.
This partnership is the latest AGB enhancement as we continue our
journey to becoming the 'Amazon of travel.' We continue to speak to
a number of other long haul airlines about potential connecting
flight partnerships and we look forward to offering our 130m
customers an even greater choice and range of long haul services in
2018."
Globalia Group CEO, Javier Hidalgo said:
"This partnership with Ryanair gives us great satisfaction, and it
puts us at the forefront of business and allows us to strengthen
our competitiveness. With this agreement Air Europa doubles its
connectivity with the European continent adding 53 European
cities.
This agreement consolidates Air Europa, the only regular airline
with 100% Spanish capital, as the best price-quality option to fly
between Europe and America. I am also happy to announce that in
2020 Air Europa will have the most modern and efficient fleet of
the market operating between both continents."
