More Choice. Lower Fares. Great Care.
In 1984, a small Irish company flew a single route from Waterford to London. Today it carries more passengers across Europe than any other airline. Ryanair changed the question travelers ask: not "can I afford to fly?" but "where shall I fly this weekend?" Now that Ryanair's fares are on Magelline.flights, that question is easier to answer than ever.
Network
Ryanair connects more than 220 destinations in 35 countries, operating over 3,600 daily flights that stretch from the Atlantic coast of Portugal to the Baltics, and from Scandinavia down to Morocco and Jordan. Its map is refreshingly different from the old airline world: instead of funneling everyone through a handful of mega hubs, Ryanair flies point to point, often into smaller airports close to the places you actually want to be. Think Bergamo for Milan, Charleroi for Brussels, Beauvais for Paris. The network keeps shifting east and south, with new bases opening across Poland, Italy, Albania, the Baltics and North Africa, exactly where travel is growing fastest.
One Fleet, One Purpose
Step aboard a Ryanair flight and you will almost certainly board a Boeing 737. The group operates around 650 aircraft, including some 210 new 737 "Gamechanger" jets that burn about 16 percent less fuel per seat and fly noticeably quieter. Flying essentially one aircraft type means simpler maintenance, faster turnarounds, and savings that end up in the fare you pay. It also explains one of Ryanair's quieter achievements: turnaround times often under 30 minutes and one of the best punctuality records among Europe's major carriers.
Fares
Ryanair keeps things honest: there is one cabin, and everyone in it paid for exactly what they need. The Basic fare includes one small bag that fits under the seat in front, perfect for a spontaneous city break. Regular adds a reserved seat, priority boarding and a 10 kg bag for the overhead locker. Plus is the one to choose when you are packing properly: it is the only bundle that includes a 20 kg checked-in bag, along with a reserved seat. Flexi Plus is built for frequent flyers, with any seat on the plane, priority boarding, a 10 kg cabin bag, fast track through security, free flight changes and the option to move to an earlier flight on the day.
One habit worth forming: check in online, which is free up to two hours before departure, since checking in at the airport carries a fee.
Onboard
Most Ryanair flights last under two hours, and the experience is designed around that fact. There are no seatback screens and no free meal service, just a buy-on-board menu with hot drinks, snacks and light meals, and a crew focused on getting you there punctually. It works: Ryanair fills around 94 percent of its seats and completes over 200 million journeys a year.
Finding Your Ryanair Fare on Magelline
On Magelline.flights you can now compare Ryanair's prices with other carriers on the same route, see what each fare includes, and pick the balance of price and comfort that suits your trip. A Tuesday morning to Rome, a Friday evening to Porto: the search box is where it starts.
In Magelline's View
The charm of Ryanair is precisely this: no frills, but a young, quiet aircraft, a departure board it usually respects, and a network that reaches corners of Europe the legacy carriers never bothered with. This is the airline of long weekends and of friends who moved abroad, of deciding on a rainy Wednesday to wake up somewhere else by Saturday. A morning coffee in Porto, an evening passeggiata in Bergamo, a weekend that costs less than a dinner out: this is the Europe Ryanair unlocked. It has made the continent feel wonderfully small, and we are glad to bring its fares to your search, where the next cheap seat to somewhere new is usually just a few clicks away.
