        'Over the last year Ryanair launched 50 new routes throughout Europe.
        Today, we are announcing three new routes which will commence in October
        2003. The new route to Barcelona Girona from Bournemouth is in response
        to the huge public demand for services to the popular Spanish region,
        and will replace the existing service from Bournemouth to Frankfurt
        Hahn. This brings Ryanair's European route network to 127, and confirms
        Ryanair's position as Europe's No.1 low fares airline.
