Since Ryanair’s first flight departed from Tallinn to Dusseldorf Weeze in December 2010, the company has carried 1.3 million customers, equalling to every Estonian flying with the company once. In 2015 Ryanair will increase its passenger volume in Estonia to 255,000 customers, and support 255* “on site” jobs at the airport and in the region. Ryanair’s 2015 Tallinn schedule will deliver:
- 8 summer 2015 routes to Barcelona Girona, Bremen, Dublin, Dusseldorf Weeze, London Stansted, Manchester, Milan Bergamo & Oslo Rygge
- 4 winter 2015/2016 routes to Dusseldorf Weeze, London Stansted, Milan Bergamo & Oslo Rygge
- 255,000 customers p.a.
- 20 weekly flights
Ryanair’s Scandinavian & Baltic Sales & Marketing Manager Elina Hakkarainen said:
“We are very happy to celebrate Ryanair’s 1.3 millionth customer in Tallinn today. In four and a half years we have carried as many customers in Tallinn as there are people in Estonia. Today marks a great milestone for both Ryanair and Tallinn Airport and we look forward to our continuous cooperation as Ryanair continues to offer our Estonian customers the lowest fares as well as the best customer service.
This year our Estonian customers can choose from 8 routes from Tallinn to a range of European city and sun break destinations, while enjoying an improved travel experience. Ryanair’s “Always Getting Better” program, including the launch of the new Ryanair website, a new app with mobile boarding passes, allocated seating, a second carry-on bag allowance and a dedicated family and business services, are all driving strong load factors and our forward bookings also in Tallinn are ahead of last year.
To celebrate our 1.3 millionth customer, Ryanair launched a special €9.99 seat sale on the Tallinn – Oslo Rygge route for travel in selected dates in June. These seats are only available until midnight (24:00hrs) Thursday 7th May, so we urge customers to book these flights on the www.Ryanair.com/ee website before they sell out.”
