Ryanair is expanding Klagenfurt connections to popular holiday destinations!

Klagenfurt, Österreich - Ryanair, the well -known Irish cheap airline, announces a comprehensive expansion of your flight connections from Klagenfurt. From April 2025, the connection to Mallorca will be offered five times a week, which means an increase in available seats by around 21,000. This represents a significant turn of sales of 25 percent compared to the previous year. Andreas Gruber, the Austrian representative of Ryanair, also predicts that a total of over 100,000 passengers will fly this summer from Klagenfurt. This is expected to lead to over 100 new workplaces at the location, as kosmo.at reported.

In addition, Ryanair plans two weekly flights to Alicante and retains the existing flights to London. However, due to passenger protests, the London flights were postponed to 11:30 p.m. in order to minimize inconvenience. Ryanair justifies these changes as necessary adjustments to operational requirements. These concrete changes could affect the occupancy of the flights at short notice, but the pre -booking figures are evaluated by an action campaign that promises attractive tariffs from 21.99 euros by the end of June, such as Kleine Zeitung noted.

growth obstacles

A central topic that Ryanair spoke in Klagenfurt is the high air traffic tax in Austria, which is 12 euros per passenger. Gruber vehemently criticized this measure and sees it as a growth brake compared to other EU countries, where this tax is not levied. The Ryanair manager expressed that the tax could increase the growth in Austria by 50 percent and indicated that Ryanair may move its expansion to other countries if the tax framework does not change. This problem was shown as a central obstacle for a further increased presence of Ryanair in Klagenfurt, as in the reports of kosmo.at and Kleine Zeitung made clear.
