Eleven new winter routes are being introduced by Ryanair from UK airports.

The no-frills carrier is also adding four new services from Dublin, including a Cardiff connection as part of an expanded winter schedule.

The additions include Birmingham to Bucharest, Milan, Turin and Vilnius; Bournemouth to Budapest and Wroclaw; Bristol to Barcelona and Madrid; Luton to Grenoble and Gatwick to Malaga.

The other routes from Dublin are to Kosice in Slovakia, Plovdiv in Bulgaria and Sibiu in Romania.

Seats until the end of March 2022 are available for £19.99 one-way if booked by midnight on August 19.

Ryanair commercial director Jason McGuinness said: “We are delighted to announce 11 new winter routes from UK cities Bournemouth, Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff and London for those who are looking to enjoy a sunny winter getaway or take in the sights on a city break to the likes of Barcelona, Budapest, Dublin or Milan.

“UK families/visitors can now book a well-earned winter getaway safe in the knowledge that if their plans change, they can move their travel dates with a zero-change fee up until the end of December 2021.”
