Fuerteventura and Marrakesh are much loved holiday hotspots with temperatures peaking at 29°C and 37°C respectively in the summer months.

Ryanair’s head of comms Jade Kirwan said: “We’re delighted to officially launch Ryanair’s biggest ever schedule for Bristol this summer with 36 routes, including six exciting new routes to Copenhagen, Fuerteventura, Marrakesh, Prague, Sofia, and Tirana, offering our customers in the south-west even more choice at the lowest fares.

"Ryanair’s record Bristol summer 24 schedule will operate on a fleet of five Bristol-based aircraft (including two Gamechangers), representing a $500million (£393million) investment and supporting over 1,400 local jobs.

"Our first summer 24 flights to Copenhagen, Marrakesh, Sofia, and Tirana took off just last week, performing phenomenally well, and we look forward to carrying more passengers onboard our first flights to Fuerteventura and Prague when they commence this July.

"Ryanair’s new Bristol schedule, including our six exciting new routes, is available to book now at ryanair.com with fares available from just £19.99 for a limited time only.”

Bristol Airport’s CEO Dave Lees added: “We are delighted with Ryanair’s announcement increasing the 2024 flight programme to its largest ever schedule from Bristol Airport, it is a clear demonstration of confidence in the region for air travel.

"Expanding Ryanair’s route network and adding new routes including to Tirana, Albania, offers customers a wider choice of destinations and flexibility of stay lengths, without the need to travel to other airports for their flights.

"We very much welcome the deployment of the more efficient ‘Gamechanger’ aircraft from Bristol Airport and look forward to working with Ryanair on developing their route network and ensuring the increased use of quieter aircraft and more environmentally efficient operations in the future.”
