Over the past decade, Ryanair has carried more than 2 million passengers through Cornwall Airport Newquay.
To mark the milestone, the airline has launched a limited‑time seat sale, with fares from £29.99 across six routes to and from Newquay - including sun destinations such as Alicante, Faro and Malaga, and popular city break spots like Dublin, Edinburgh and London.
Ryanair’s Director of Communications, Jade Kirwan, said: “We’re delighted to mark 2 million Ryanair passengers through Cornwall Airport Newquay since we began operations to and from Newquay a decade ago.
“This significant milestone showcases Ryanair’s continued investment and growth in the region, delivering important low‑fare connectivity, traffic, tourism, jobs, and economic growth.”
