Ryanair launches 7 new routes from major UK airport offering holidaymakers ‘more choice at the lowest fares’

Ryanair has launched seven new summer routes from London Stansted Airport, offering more travel opportunities for Britons as the days get warmer.

The UK’s number one low fares airline announced that flights to Bodrum, Clermont, Dalaman, Linz, Lübeck, Münster and Reggio Calabria took off this week.


The new routes are part of Ryanair’s Summer 2025 schedule. The airline will operate several flights per week on each of these new routes.

These seven destinations are just a fraction of Ryanair’s extensive network, with a total of 163 routes operating to and from London Stansted this summer.

Ryanair’s Communications Director, Jade Kirwan, said: “Ryanair was pleased to see the first flights of our new Summer 2025 routes from London Stansted to Bodrum, Clermont, Dalaman, Linz, Lübeck, Münster and Reggio Calabria take-off this week, carrying lots of happy holidaymakers and marking the beginning of the Summer 2025 season.”

“This exciting new Summer 2025 route will operate several times per week, offering our UK customers even more choice at the lowest fares when booking their summer getaways.”

However, Kirwan also criticised the UK government’s approach to aviation taxes.

“Ryanair could be growing more rapidly to/from the UK, but Rachel Reeves’ bizarre decision to raise APD taxes by £2 per passenger damages these growth prospects, and in particular regional UK airports,” she said.

She noted that countries like Hungary, Ireland, Sweden and regions in Italy are abolishing aviation taxes, winning “dramatic traffic, tourism, and jobs growth from the UK”.

Kirwan urged the UK government to abolish the “penal and damaging APD tax” which she claimed makes the UK uncompetitive.

Ryanair’s complete Summer 2025 schedule features over 2,000 routes across more than 230 destinations.

The full schedule is now available to book on the Ryanair website.
