ALICANTE, BASEL, BERLIN, BRATISLAVA, EINDHOVEN, KARLSRUHE BADEN, LIVERPOOL,

Ryanair, Europe's largest low fares airline, today (Thursday, 14th June 2007)
announced 13 new routes from its Stockholm Skavsta base to Alicante, Basel,
Bratislava, Eindhoven, Baden Baden, Liverpool, Malta, Pisa, Porto, Salzburg,
Trapani and Valencia. These new routes will start in October, when Ryanair will
invest $140m and add two new Boeing 737 800s (total 6) at its Stockholm Skavsta
base.
Announcing these 13 new routes, Michael O'Leary, Ryanair's CEO said:
'Ryanair low fares in Sweden have been a tremendous success because
Swedish passengers can't stand SAS's high fares and frequent strikes.
With these new routes Ryanair will carry 2.5m passengers annually to and
from Stockholm Skavsta at less than one third of SAS's high fares. This
generates a visitor spend of 5bn SEK in the region and delivers
passenger savings of 3bn SEK.
'Only Ryanair guarantees the lowest fares from Sweden. If any passenger
finds a lower fare with another airline on the same route, Ryanair will
refund double the difference. To celebrate these 13 new routes, we are
giving away 100,000 seats from Stockholm for just 220 SEK (just the
taxes), and we urge all passengers to log onto www.ryanair.com
immediately, as seats this cheap will sell out fast.'
