The airline first took to the skies back in 1985 with its first flight from Waterford Airport to London Gatwick – Ryanair’s only route at the time.
Since then, Ryanair has grown to become Europe’s no.1 airline, operating thousands of daily flights across over 230 destinations and carrying over 185 million passengers per year. In total, the budget airline operates a whopping 3,078 flights a day.
With its growing fleet of Boeing 737 aircraft and its team of over 22,000 highly skilled aviation professionals delivering industry-leading operational performance, Ryanair continues to grow traffic to 225 million passengers per year by 2026 and 300 million passengers per year by 2034, offering customers unbeatable reliability and choice at the lowest fares in Europe.

Recently, Ryanair divulged what food and drinks were allowed onto a plane operated by the carrier, revealing you can take whatever food or soft drinks you like on board as long as it meets hand-luggage dimension and weight restrictions.
Hot drinks are not allowed for safety reasons, and passengers cannot consume their own alcohol during the flight.
A spokesperson said: "In the interest of safety we cannot allow passengers to board the plane with hot drinks or consume their own alcohol during the flight."
