RYANAIR ADDS 4TH AIRCRAFT IN BRATISLAVA FOR W2026 4 NEW ROUTES, & 125% TRAFFIC GROWTH

Ryanair, Europe’s No.1 airline, has announced a record W2026 schedule at Bratislava, with 23 routes including 4 new routes to Paphos, Tirana, Turin, and Warsaw, delivering 125% traffic growth to over 2.2m passengers p.a. To support this record W2026 schedule, Ryanair will add a 4th based B737 aircraft in Bratislava from Oct 2026 – a $400m investment supporting over 1,600 local jobs, including 30 new high-paid pilot and cabin crew jobs.

Ryanair’s $400M investment and 125% traffic growth at Bratislava is a direct result of the proactive policy of the Slovak Govt and Transport Minister, Jozef Raž, to grow traffic and tourism by abolishing enviro taxes, lowering airport charges, and cutting ATC fees. This policy has made Slovakia Europe’s fastest growing aviation market in 2026 with record traffic growth of 170% in April.
