Ryanair is to add new routes to Liverpool and Bristol from Shannon Airport, and increase frequency to Manchester.
The airline has put on sale its new three times weekly (Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays) Liverpool service from May 19 and a twice weekly (Mondays and Thursdays) Bristol service from May 17.
Ryanair has also added Tuesdays and Wednesdays to its popular Manchester service from Shannon, which will now run six days weekly.
The additional services and Manchester extension will add 60,000 extra seats at Shannon this summer. The two new services bring to 17 the number of destinations that will be served by Ryanair from Shannon this year.
Welcoming the announcement, Shannon Group CEO Matthew Thomas said that 2018 is going to be a year of growth for Shannon.
"We’re gearing up very well for 2018. We’ve already had the announcement of additional transatlantic services this year, and we now have this very positive move by Ryanair for our UK schedule to add to the new Reus-Barcelona service Ryanair is starting in March.
"The UK is our largest market and it is encouraging that despite the uncertainty surrounding Brexit, we are adding new services into the UK.
