Tatevik Revazian, Chair of Civil Aviation Committee at Government of the Republic of Armenia, said:
“Ryanair has truly put our hidden pearl, Armenia, on the world map! Our government’s decision to remove the departure tax for new routes has more than doubled already existing routes to Europe. We warmly welcome Ryanair travellers.”
Susanna Safaryan, Chair of the Tourism Committee of the Ministry of Economy of Armenia:
“The availably of cheap direct flights is an important precondition for choosing a new travel destination. The entrance of two European low-cost airlines into the Armenian market makes our country more accessible and appealing for travellers from Europe. This will not only strengthen the connection between Armenia and Europe but also promote the growth of the number of tourists visiting Armenia in 2020. We welcome all visitors of Armenia and wish them an enjoyable and memorable stay in our hospitable country”
