Ryanair, Europe’s Low-Cost Airline

Ryanair is a European low-cost airline that is based in Ireland, however they also have offices in the United Kingdom. They currently own a fleet of more than 230 Boeing 737-800 aircraft and are known to be the largest low-cost European air carrier. They are the largest airline in terms of international passengers in the world.

Ryanair’s fares are very low due to Ryanair discount codes which is one of the  special cost-reduction measures that the airline employs. For example, travellers are required to do their check-in online and print their boarding passes by themselves. They also operate as a “no-frills” airline, featuring simple, non-reclining seats on their airplanes, no pockets on the back of seats as well as the safety cards inserted on the back of the seats. All their flights are sold as point-to-point with no connections.

While Ryanair flies to many routes across Europe and Morocco, most of their flights depart and arrive at smaller, regional or secondary airports. This is because those airports often provide airlines with landing and handling costs that are far lower than those at major airports. For example, Ryanair does not have flights to Paris’ main airport, Paris-Charles de Gaulle, but instead uses the Paris Beauvais airport, which is located 85 km away from the city. They are constantly looking to find new, more cost-effective routes for their passengers.
