Ryanair has announced two new routes for Shannon that will start in March 2023. The new destinations of Porto in Portugal and Naples in Italy will both operate twice weekly with services on Wednesdays and Sundays. With these additions, it brings the total number of routes operated by Ryanair at Shannon Airport next summer to 26, and over 180 weekly flights – a 35% capacity growth on its Summer ‘22 offering.
Commenting as the new routes were announced, the CEO of The Shannon Airport Group, Mary Considine said, “This is fantastic news for our passengers and another win for Shannon Airport, due to the hard work of our Aviation Development team. Porto is a great coastal city with incredible history, while Naples offers so much to see and do, and opens opportunities for passengers to explore the wonderful Amalfi coastline. These destinations will provide further connectivity for Shannon and the region, and highlights Shannon’s continued growth since the pandemic. Today’s announcement is also extremely encouraging for our tourism industry across the region and along the Wild Atlantic Way, and these services will complement the exciting variety of destinations Shannon Airport has to offer for Summer ‘23.”
