RYANAIR'S CELEBRATES AT CITY OF DERRY AIRPORT? AT THE DOUBLE!

Fares from just 99p*

Ryanair, Europe's largest low fares airline, today (21st Sept) had double
cause for celebration at City of Derry Airport.

Today it is announcing a new route between City of Derry and Glasgow
Prestwick in Scotland.

And also today it has carried 50,000 passengers on its popular route from
City of Derry to Liverpool.

The new five-times-a-week service to Glasgow Prestwick, gateway to glorious
Scotland, will commence on 5 December 2006 with fares from just 99p.*

Ryanair's Sales and Marketing Manager for UK, Ireland and Central & Eastern
Europe Caroline Baldwin said: "Ryanair's expansion at City of Derry Airport
continues with this attractive new route. There's a strong affinity between
Northern Ireland and the West of Scotland, so we expect the service to be
extremely popular.

"In the first year of operation, we expect to carry at least 70,000
passengers, half of whom will be visiting the Londonderry area, thereby
providing a further boost for NI tourism."

Added Caroline: "The Glasgow route is now on sale, and we expect demand to
be massive, so we urge people to log onto www.ryanair.com now for the best
deals."

Ryanair began services at City of Derry Airport in 1999 with the first
route to London and now operates a twice daily service to London, and daily
flights both to East Midlands and to Liverpool.

Commenting on the Liverpool milestone, Ms Baldwin said: "Ryanair is
delighted to celebrate this marvellous milestone today. Our Liverpool route
is extremely popular and today's milestone is testament to Ryanair's growth
at City of Derry. "
