DAA welcomes Ryanair expansion plans

The Dublin Airport Authority (DAA) has welcomed today's announcement of a planned increase in Ryanair's route network and passenger traffic at Dublin Airport.

From April 2006 the airline will base five new Boeing 737-800 series aircraft in Dublin. These new aircraft will allow Ryanair to open up 18 new routes from Dublin to Continental Europe, generating over 250 direct Ryanair jobs.
