Transatlantic Ryanair nearer

Post by airazurxtror »

The airline is currently planning a new service between Europe and the US and will use either Airbus 350s or Boeing Dreamliners, according to reports in The Sunday Times.
Ryanair would be following in the footsteps of fellow no-frills carrier Norwegian, which recently launched £150 flights between Gatwick and New York.
“We are happy to be a smarter second mover and watch what happens with them and if they can make it work,” Ryanair’s chief marketing officer Kenny Jacobs told the newspaper.
"We’ve got a model that we know can work. We need to get aircraft, so we can talk to Boeing and Airbus, and we can also see if someone has some distressed inventory [we can take sooner] to make our transatlantic plan a reality.
“There’s a version of Ryanair that will work on transatlantic.”

The Irish carrier would connect airports such as Dublin, Stansted and Milan with Newark, JFK and Boston.
The plan would feature separate “premium” seating, said Kenny Jacobs.
