After recently selling tickets for flights between Zagreb and Podgorica, the Irish low-cost airline Ryanair has announced the return of flights to the British Manchester.
Flights will be operated twice a week, on Mondays and Fridays, until the end of October.
Ryanair previously announced the cancellation of flights to Barcelona, Zagreb and Manchester, due to the increase in passenger taxes at the Podgorica airport. However, the break will last only during the winter, because tickets to Zagreb are already available from June 1, 2024, while the first summer flight to Manchester will be on June 3.
A flight to Manchester is available on the Ryanair website on both April 1st and 5th.
Flights to Barcelona for next season have not yet been announced.
According to the current schedule, Ryanair will operate flights between Podgorica and Manchester until the end of the summer season, that is, until the end of October, just like to Zagreb.
The busiest low-cost carrier in Montenegro
Last year, Ryanair was the busiest low-cost airline in Montenegro with 249,959 passengers on flights to and from Podgorica. The figure represents an increase of over 200% from 2021 and a 30.8% increase from pre-pandemic 2019.
Its average annual cabin occupancy factor in Podgorica last year was 82.3%. In 2022, the carrier carried 32,576 passengers on the Charleroi route, which was the first route it launched for Montenegro back in 2013. In addition, it received 28,745 passengers on the Zagreb route, which began in 2021. Flights to Barcelona were introduced in 2019.
