7 April 2003.

                    New Ryanair Route between UK and France
                 London-Stansted - Clermont-Ferrand for €19.99

Ryanair, Europe's No.1 low fares airlines, today (7 April 2003) announced a new
  daily route between London-Stansted and Clermont-Ferrand, France with fares
                     starting from €19.99 including taxes.

Announcing details of the new route, Conal Henry, Commercial Director of
Ryanair.com, said:

'Ryanair's low fares arrived in France in 1997 with the opening of our
Dublin-Paris route. Air France's high fares stifled travel from France but our
low fares rapidly changed all that. Today, the French have a choice of 26
Ryanair low fare routes from France to the UK, Germany, Belgium, Spain, Italy
and Sweden.

To date, close to 2m passengers have taken advantage of Ryanair's low fares in
France and we expect to carry 80,000 passengers on this new route. This will be
a huge boost to local tourism and we expect it will create many new jobs in the
region.
