It’s a good day for United fans.

Hot on the heels of the seven new routes announced by Aer Lingus, Ryanair has announced its largest-ever winter schedule from Cork, with a new route from Cork to Manchester, operating twice daily from December 15th, 2021.

Having recently announced a €200m investment in Cork Airport and a full recovery of its pre-pandemic passenger capacity with the re-opening of its two aircraft bases, this new route will further enhance connectivity between Ireland and the UK.

“As Ryanair takes delivery of 55 additional Boeing 737-8200 ‘Gamechanger’ aircraft this winter, we are delighted to add this new route from Cork to Manchester following the reopening of our Cork base from this winter,” said Ryanair’s Director of Commercial, Jason McGuinness.

“This will allow Irish and UK families to reconnect this Christmas, as well as Cork’s Manchester United fans return their season tickets, on Ryanair’s lowest fares with two daily flights to choose from.”

To celebrate, Ryanair has launched a €14.99 seat sale for travel until the end of March ‘22, which must be booked online by midnight Sunday, October 31st, 2021.
