Ryanair – low cost airline flying to Europe

Ryanair brings the south of France closer to holidaymakers.

With the chaos and disarray air passengers found themselves in this winter, due to the snow, the public’s confidence in airlines is relatively low at present.

(Best budget airline?) Ryanair however, is not usually associated with a high number of cancellations and delays and many passengers describe the airline as being one of the more ‘reliable’.

Travellers will be pleased to learn therefore, that Ryanair has unveiled its summer 2011 route programme, which includes several additional destinations to its network, as well as an increase in the number of flights to its most popular destinations.

One of Ryanair’s new additions for its 2011 summer schedule includes flights from Liverpool John Lennon Airport to Toulon in the south of France. This ancient and picturesque city is typical of the bustle, colour and life associated with Provence. It also puts travellers within easy reach of the beautiful French Riviera and its glamorous cities, such as Marseille and Saint Tropez.

Tourists of Toulon are spoilt of things to do and see. A contemporary art museum, naval museum, the 18 fountains of the city, the Saint Francois de Paul Church and the Palais de Congres, are just a few of the many wonderful highlights Toulon offers, both old and new.

Toulon is also a haven for music lovers, as the city is home to many music festivals, particularly in the summer months, including a dance festival at Chateauvallon.

Ryanair’s new route will bring all the pleasures of this great French city closer to travellers this summer. Talking about its extended routes, Stephen McNamara from Ryainair said:

“Ryanair is delighted to launch an extended Liverpool summer 2011 schedule which offers passengers 41 routes, including a new destination to Toulon and increased frequencies on six popular sunshine routes.”

In addition to the Toulon schedule, the budget airline has also announced it will begin additional services from Robin Hood Doncaster Airport to Tenerife and Faro this summer.
