Key Points:

  • 17 new routes to Tirana, including major European cities.
  • Low fares starting at €15 one way.
  • Over 1.6 million passengers expected in the first year.
  • Creation of over 1,000 local jobs in Albania.
  • Ryanair aims to break the high-fare oligopoly that has limited traffic and tourism growth in Albania.

  • Plans to explore new routes to/from Tirana and other Albanian airports in the coming years.
  • Three-day seat sale with 50,000 seats priced at €14.99 to celebrate the record advance bookings.

Ryanair’s CEO, Michael O’Leary, anticipates strong demand for low-cost travel to Albania and is committed to sustainable growth in the region. The airline is poised to revolutionize air travel in Albania, offering an alternative to high-fare carriers, and aims to make Albania a key growth market in its expansion plan to 800 aircraft and 300 million passengers annually over the next decade.
