Ryanair Commercial Director Jason McGuinness said: “As Europe’s No.1 airline, Ryanair remains committed to rebuilding the European aviation and tourism industry by restoring connectivity and expanding its network of passengers to over 225 million by 2026. As Ryanair takes delivery of an additional 55 Boeing 737-8200 ‘Gamechanger’ this winter, we are delighted to add this new route from Edinburgh to Marrakech.
“We are launching a ticket sale to celebrate this new route to Marrakech, with fares available for just £ 19.99 for travel through the end of March 22, which must be booked by Thursday 21 midnight. st October 2021 on the Ryanair.com website.
“As consumer confidence in air travel gradually recovers, Ryanair is once again calling on the UK government to remove or suspend ODA (Air Passenger Duty) to allow airlines to quickly regain connectivity, jobs and tourism in the aftermath of the pandemic. APD makes UK airports very uncompetitive with those in Europe, while Ryanair continues to add capacity after opening several new bases in recent months, including Agadir, Billund, Riga , Stockholm, Turin and Zagreb.
“While Ryanair has made a commitment to the UK and Edinburgh Airport, the lack of government support continues to create barriers to increased traffic and growth. “
