RYANAIR has further expanded its Leeds Bradford Airport winter schedule by offering two new routes.

The Irish airline will now fly to Bratislava, the capital city of Slovakia, and Vilnius, the Lithuanian capital, from the Yeadon site.

Ryanair’s Leeds Bradford winter schedule now includes two weekly flights to Gran Canaria and two to Warsaw in Poland.

It will offer a new winter service to Faro, Portugal and more flights to Alicante, Krakow, Lanzarote and Tenerife from Leeds Bradford.

This is a total of 15 routes made up of 51 weekly flights.

Tony Hallwood, aviation development director at Leeds Bradford Airport, said: “Ryanair’s Vilnius and Bratislava routes from Leeds Bradford Airport are a great addition to their winter schedule from LBA; both are fantastic destinations for city breaks and for business travel.

“We’re really pleased that Ryanair are investing further in their routes from Leeds Bradford, helping to secure jobs for people across our region and provide even more route choice to our customers.”
