Ryanair claims 'your next trip just got cheaper' as airline makes announcement
Brits planning to go abroad for a couple of days after the peak summertime are now in luck, as popular low-budget airline Ryanair has announced an unmissable opportunity to go on holiday for cheap - and a ticket could cost you less than a night out in London.
Ryanair has announced a tempting offer to prospective travellers, declaring "your next trip just got cheaper" in a social media post on Tuesday (July 29). The budget-friendly airline, renowned for its no-frills service, is encouraging customers to seize the opportunity by Wednesday to enjoy the savings.
A message from the official Ryanair account on X, previously known as Twitter, states: "your next trip just got cheaper [winking emoji] BOOK NOW." Accompanying text within a graphic in the post reads: "FLASH SALE ALERT 15% OFF ALL FLIGHTS", further detailing that a discount code is available and the deal is valid for travel between September 1, 2025 and October 31, 2025.
The sale section of the Ryanair website clarifies that terms and conditions apply, stating "promotional fares are subject to availability" and bookings must be made by Wednesday, reports the Liverpool Echo.
Ryanair also specifies that the promotion is "only available for bookings made on selected routes and dates", adding: "We reserve the right to extend the sale and amend routes/seats provided."
"This promotion cannot be combined with other promotional fares. This promotion does not apply on connecting flights/routes or Spanish subsidised tickets."
It continues: "Any flight changes made to bookings that are booked as part of this promotion will be subject to the standard flight change fee set out in our Table of Fees. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, these Terms and Conditions shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Ireland. Ryanair Group GTCCs apply."
It's not the first time that Ryanair has offered discounts and deals on flights to customers. The airline also offers a Ryanair Prime membership program, which provides travellers with exclusive benefits such as discounts, up to 12 free seat reservations, and travel insurance for an annual fee of £79 in a one-time payment, not a monthly subscription.
Holiday-goers can snap up a one-way ticket from Liverpool John Lennon Airport to Milan for as little as £15.99, with single fares to Dublin, Madrid and Rome kicking off at just £21.99 each. Those keen on Barcelona, Budapest or Ibiza can secure a one-way flight from £24.99, while trips to Faro begin at £27.99. A total bargain.

Tragedy as couple drown in flash floods while holidaying in Majorca with friends
Alexander Barrett, 32, died along with his partner Sarah Thompson, 26, in the Spanish island of Majorca last year as a "wall of water" cascaded down the canyon they were descending A British couple tragically died during a hiking holiday as a "wall of water" cascaded down the canyon they were descending, an inquest has heard. Alexander Barrett, 32, died along with his partner Sarah Thompson, 26, in the Spanish island of Majorca last year. Mr Barrett, a climbing instructor and lifeguard, attempted to help Ms Thompson as the wall of water hit the canyon where they were descending with a group of other hikers on September 3, Stockport Coroner's Court heard. Both were swept to their deaths. Spanish search teams recovered Ms Thompson's body the day after the flood, while Mr Barrett's body was found in the Torrent de Pareis canyon in the Tramuntana mountains on September 6. It comes after a girl, 3, was found dead on beach by a horrified passer-by. Ms Thompson's father, Peter Thompson, who lives in Berwick-upon-Tweed, said his daughter 'was never without a smile on her face'. She had represented Cumbria at fell running in national competitions, had a degree in photography from Manchester Metropolitan University, and had recently been promoted in the donations team at The Christie hospital in Manchester. Paul Rodman, Mr Barrett's father, said his son 'loved life' and relished the outdoors, from hiking to surfing, adding: 'He was genuinely a good person, a caring person, a kind person. The friends and family have developed a little saying, 'Be more like Alex' because that's what we aspire to be. He's missed so much by all his friends and family.' The couple, from Offerton, near Stockport, had gone on the informal trip with friends, all hiking and climbing enthusiasts, making their separate ways to Majorca. On the trip was Luke Weaver, who knew Mr Barrett as a friend and climbing instructor at Awesome Walls, an indoor climbing centre in Stockport.'We all had a mutual passion for climbing and hiking,' he said in a statement read at the inquest. Mr Weaver, on the trip with his partner, said the hike they planned to do, which took three to four hours to complete, was well known globally and known to be 'challenging in places'. He had completed the hike before on several occasions, but neither Ms Thompson nor Mr Barrett had, but he considered it was 'well within the capabilities' of the group, he said. Mr Weaver said he was aware the gorge flooded so he checked the weather forecast on the morning of September 3 last year, which only predicted rain from 6pm, by which time they would be 'well clear'. He added: 'Had I known what was to happen, I would never have let them into the gorge.' Mr Weaver said he dropped the group of friends off for the hike and intended to catch them up after parking his car, but was delayed in heavy traffic by around two hours, before he could begin the hike himself. It had been a hot morning, but a storm had moved in and at around 2:30pm it began to drizzle with rain but Mr Weaver said this did not cause any concern as he continued the hike to meet with his partner and friends ahead of him. But a short time later it started to rain more heavily and he could hear thunder in the distance and he began to quicken his said as there was no phone signal in the gorge he could not make contact with them. As the downpour grew Mr Weaver said he spotted his friends, who were now with a German couple and two Spanish nationals, in a 'bottleneck' between two boulders. 'At this point the heavens opened,' Mr Weaver said. 'At this time the water was flowing like a small river.' Mr Weaver said he was helping the hikers through the bottleneck and he gestured to Ms Thompson if she was 'OK' and she replied yes but with a 'nervous smile'. He then heard someone shout, 'Water!' 'Seconds later a massive wall of water came down the gorge,' Mr Weaver said. 'The water appeared to come from nowhere. The sound was incredibly loud, people were screaming.' Mr Weaver said he could see one of the group had managed to grab onto a rock while one of the Spanish nationals had been swept into the torrent and was being carried away. His own partner managed to get out of the water and after a few minutes others emerged from the deluge, but Mr Weaver said the noise of the water was too loud to communicate with each other. Sadly, both Sarah and Alex were unable to climb to safety and were swept away by the floodwaters. 'I was shouting and screaming for the others. I could see no-one,' Mr Weaver said. Ms Thompson had been seen being swept away along with her partner, who had tried to help but the current had taken him too, the inquest heard. Later the survivors were airlifted out of the gorge by helicopter, suffering only minor injuries. Mr Weaver added: 'Everyone who survived that day is incredibly lucky, especially those who got caught in the water. I have never experienced anything like this and it is something I will never forget.' Post-mortem examinations gave the cause of death as drowning for both the deceased. Jyoti Gill, assistant coroner for Manchester South, recorded a verdict of accidental death caused by drowning for both Ms Thompson and Mr Barrett, whose legal name was Alexander Johnson, but was known by the name Alex Barrett. Ms Gill said the storm had caused flash flooding, sending a large torrent of water down the canyon. Ms Gill concluded: 'It appears water dragged Sarah, and Alex had tried to help her. Sadly, both Sarah and Alex were unable to climb to safety and were swept away by the floodwaters."

Ryanair sets monthly passenger record despite air traffic control strikes
The Dublin-based carrier announced 20.7 million passengers travelled on its flights in July. That is up 3% from 20.2 million during the same month last year. Its load factor – which represents the average proportion of seat filled on its aircraft – was stable at 96%. Ryanair said it operated more than 113,000 flights in July and cancelled 680, mainly because of French controller strikes. French ATC staff took industrial action on July 3 and 4 in a dispute over working conditions. As well as disrupting flights to and from French airports, the walkouts affected flights scheduled to travel over French airspace. This meant many services to or from UK airports were delayed or cancelled. EasyJet chief executive Kenton Jarvis previously described the French strikes as 'very, very disruptive' as they forced the airline to cancel 660 flights and cost it £15 million. Around 70% of easyJet's flights either fly to or from a French airport, or over the country's airspace. European air traffic management body Eurocontrol estimated the strikes affected more than one million passengers. Meanwhile, a radar fault suffered by UK ATC provider Nats led to more than 100 UK flights being cancelled on July 30.

Teachers who swapped Aberystwyth for Patagonia speak of their adventures
Lending advice for future participants, Lleucu says: "Go with an open mind and you can really get involved in the community. Remember things aren't going to be the same and always ask for help, but the people here really pull together to help at school and at home – no one seems to panic. Also, it's great to learn some Spanish before going. It's been a real privilege to come back to Patagonia, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to part of this amazing community again.'
