Ryanair also unveiled its new Greek Ryanair website, which is aimed to make it easier for Greek consumers and visitors to book the low fares it provides. The airline’s new Greek website includes a “Fare Finder” feature, where customers can find and book the lowest fares by price point, route and travel period, and can share those airfares with friends and family on social media via a “Share the Fare” feature.

Ryanair has announced seats for sale across its European network, at low prices for travel in May, June and July. The low fare seats are available for booking until midnight Tuesday 6 May.
