Low-cost carrier Ryanair said it will invest just over €200 million to base two new Boeing 737-800 aircraft at Dublin from November in order to launch six new European routes.
The airline said the extra capacity would see new thrice-weekly routes to Basel in Switzerland and Katowice in Poland and increased frequencies on 12 routes to the UK and Europe.
Ryanair claims that the addtional capacity should see an addtional one million passengers use the airline.
