Ryanair introducing new Stockholm—Malta service

Ryanair announced fares from as low as €0.01* to celebrate the launch of the new route bridging Northern-most countries in Europe with the Southern most European state. Announcing the new route, Ryanair’s Sales & Marketing Manager for Southern Europe, Bridget Dowling said:

“Ryanair’s existing routes to Dublin, London and Pisa have proven hugely successful as have the recently announced routes to Bremen and Barcelona which will start in the Autumn. We are delighted to announce a 6th route to Stockholm which will operate twice a week from October 31st. We expect to carry 30,000 passengers on this route in the first year of operations.

With this new route Ryanair will carry more than 260,000 passengers annually to and from Malta. This generates a visitor spend of over €38,000,000 in the area and delivers passenger savings of €26,000,000.”

“Only Ryanair guarantees the lowest fares from Malta. If any passenger finds a lower fare with another airline on the same route, Ryanair will refund double the difference. To celebrate this new route to Stockholm, we are giving away seats from Malta for just €0.01*, and we urge all passengers to log onto www.ryanair.com immediately, as seats this cheap will sell out fast.”

Following Ryanair’s announcement that yet another new route to Malta is being launched as of the 31st of October, from Stockholm, Malta Tourism Authority Chairman, Sam Mifsud, commented that: “This is more excellent news. It is amply clear that the serious flight capacity problem we were facing last year are now all but surmounted. New routes to Malta are opening on a regular basis, with the new airlines commencing operations all expressing satisfaction with the demand they are registering. Nevertheless we still have hurdles to face in this regard, in that we need to ensure that the various airlines’ load factors are strengthened as much as possible. This will be achieved by constant, ongoing marketing efforts in all our core markets and beyond”
