Ryanair’s Robin Kiely said: “Boris can get to Castlebar after all – and on the lowest fares – thanks to Ryanair’s London-Knock Connacht Final extras, which went on sale today. Ryanair carries thousands of passengers between London and Ireland every day, but we’ve never had so many GAA fans ringing our reservation centre looking for extra seats home. We have a total of seven flights between Stansted and Knock for the big match and our advice to fans is to log on and book on www.ryanair.com today before these Connacht Final specials sell out.” Commenting, Donal Healy, Marketing Manager, Ireland West Airport Knock said ‘We are delighted that Ryanair has responded to the anticipated huge demand for the game by adding in extra flights from London which are now bookable on ryanair.com.
