Speaking today, Peter Sherrard, Ryanair's Head of Communications said:

        "Ryanair's low fares revolution is delivering record tourism growth by
        reducing the cost of travel for Irish passengers and visitors. 9M
        passengers will save EUR400M on our 73 routes to/from Dublin in the
        coming year.

        "Ryanair now serves 11 Spanish destinations and 7 Polish destinations
        from Dublin. Today's new route to Billund is also the first low fare
        route between Ireland and Denmark.

        "To celebrate these new destinations, Ryanair is releasing half a
        million seats from Dublin to Europe for just EUR9.99 all in. We urge
        passengers to book today on www.ryanair.com".
