Ryanair Announces New Summer 2027 Routes From UK Airports

Ryanair has announced the first 29 new routes in its Summer 2027 schedule, including 13 services from UK airports as the airline begins putting its plans in place for next summer.

The new routes will add destinations across Europe, with Leeds Bradford receiving four additions and further services planned from Newcastle, Bournemouth, Exeter, Norwich, East Midlands and Birmingham.

Leeds Bradford will gain flights to Budapest, Tirana, Corfu and Bari. The additions give passengers more choice for both city breaks and summer holidays, with destinations in Hungary, Albania, Greece and Italy joining the airport’s network.

Newcastle will gain services to Reus in Spain and Rhodes in Greece, while Bournemouth and Exeter will both add flights to Porto, Portugal.

Norwich is set to gain a new connection to Málaga, while passengers travelling from East Midlands will have a new option to Gdańsk in Poland. Birmingham will also gain a new route to Wrocław.

The announcement is the first stage of Ryanair’s Summer 2027 expansion, rather than the complete schedule for next year. The airline expects to operate more than 2,500 routes across 230 destinations during the summer season, and has indicated that further routes will be announced.

All 29 routes included in the initial announcement are available to book through Ryanair’s website and app. The airline is encouraging customers to book early, although fares will depend on demand, travel dates and availability.

Ryanair’s continued investment in its network will be closely watched by regional airports, where additional routes can improve connectivity and give passengers more choice closer to home.

The latest additions are spread across several parts of the UK, rather than being concentrated entirely at the country’s largest airports.

With more announcements expected, the coming months should provide a clearer picture of how Ryanair intends to develop its UK network for Summer 2027.
