Ryanair today announced that they will be expanding operations from Liverpool John Lennon Airport (LJLA) for Summer 2017 with 5 new destinations to be served during the Summer and increases in frequency on existing services.

The airline’s expansion will bring up to an extra 15 departing flights per week and over 200,000 additional seats from Liverpool compared to this year and an expected 11% growth in Ryanair passenger traffic.

In addition there will be increased departures each week to Warsaw in Poland, Gran Canaria in the Canary Islands, Palma de Mallorca, Faro on the Portuguese Algarve and to the Spanish holiday destinations of Alicante and Malaga.

This will see Ryanair serve some 32 destinations from Liverpool next Summer and this latest expansion of their services is expected to further continue the growth in passenger numbers that the Airport has been experiencing for the past 18 months.
