Ryanair, the leading airline in Europe, has unveiled its Winter '23 schedule, including 17 new routes and 200 weekly flights to and from Albania.
This expansion aims to cater to UK holidaymakers, offering convenient travel options from popular destinations such as Edinburgh, London Stansted, and Manchester.
Albania Joins Ryanair's Extensive Reach
Albania will join the ever-growing network of Ryanair, becoming the airline's 37th country destination. This strategic move aligns with Ryanair's ambitious plans to transport 300 million passengers by 2034.

However, the sole major airline capable of delivering sustainable and substantial growth in Europe, Ryanair, remains at the forefront of the industry.
