Ryanair to launch new Aberdeen flights to Krakow next year

Ryanair has launched new flights between Aberdeen and Krakow from next year.

The budget airline will operate flights from Aberdeen Airport to the Polish city from April 2, 2025. Flights will depart twice a week on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

The new destination will join Wizz Air's route from the Granite City to Gdansk in Poland.

Chris Tibbett, Aero Director for AGS Airports, said: “This new route to Krakow is a fantastic addition to our network, and we are delighted that Ryanair has responded to passenger demand by introducing this service.

“Krakow is one of Europe’s most popular city destinations, known for its rich history and vibrant culture. This is great news for our passengers, and with the added bonus of increased frequency on our Faro route, it highlights Ryanair’s commitment to offering expanded options from Aberdeen.”

It comes after it was yesterday announced that Aberdeen Airport owner AGS Airports has been acquired by a major management company in a deal expected to be completed by next year.

The acquisition of AGS Airports from Ferrovial and Macquarie occurred for an enterprise value of £1.53billion. The transaction is expected to complete in the first quarter of 2025.
