Budget airline Ryanair is running seven new routes out of Birmingham Airport next summer. The Irish firm says this will be its biggest ever summer schedule to operate out of the airport, with a total of 42 routes including the seven new ones.
They are Billund, Girona, Pisa, Santander, Stockholm, Toulouse and Venice - all of which are operating twice weekly - while its total summer programme comprises more than 350 flights per week.
There are increased frequencies on ten of its routes, including to Bergamo, Dublin and Madrid, and it is also adding a new Boeing 737-8200 Gamechanger aircraft to its stable at Birmingham Airport, bringing its total there to six.
