Ryanair announces price increase: flights more expensive in summer!

The Irish low-cost airline Ryanair is planning a price increase of 4 to 6 percent for next summer, as Ryanair boss Michael O'Leary recently announced. This marks a turnaround after a 10 percent price decline last year. The increase is due to the fact that flight prices are now expected to be below 2023 levels but above last year's levels. Prices are rising due to economic factors and a largely resolved dispute with online travel agencies that weighed on ticket prices, oe24 reported.

Flights planned from Poland to Ukraine

In a further step, O'Leary announced that Ryanair wants to offer flights again within six weeks of a ceasefire in Ukraine. These flights are expected to include 6 to 8 routes from Poland to Ukraine. This is a significant sign of a return to normality for a nation known for its naturally beautiful landscapes and historic cities. Ukraine, considered the breadbasket of the former Soviet Union, attracts travelers with its rich flora and fauna as well as cultural sights such as the UNESCO World Heritage St. Sophia Cathedral in Kiev, fluege.de describes.

The Ukrainian cities, especially Kiev and Odessa, offer not only cultural treasures but also picturesque Black Sea coasts. This return of Ryanair could be an important step for Ukraine's tourism sector, allowing travelers to discover the region's diverse landscapes as well as its impressive culture.
