No-frills airline Ryanair has announced price reductions on flights to Europe’s favourite Christmas market destinations with fares from just £16.99.

More than 100,000 seats are on sale to enable revellers to take an important break from the busy Christmas preparations with a festive trip to a winter wonderland.

Soak up the festive atmosphere at top Christmas markets in the likes of Brussels, Budapest, Prague or Vienna and experience the best choirs, crafts, cuisine, mulled wine, gifts and holly-decked stalls in the medieval squares of Europe’s oldest and most beautiful cities this winter.

Fares are available from just £16.99 for travel up to December 31, 2021. Customers must act fast and visit the Ryanair.com website to book their flights before midnight on Sunday November 21.

Ryanair’s director of marketing, Dara Brady, said: “We’re delighted to announce our Christmas market seat sale and can’t wait to take our customers around Europe’s top winter wonderlands for a well-deserved break this November and December. Whether it’s for pre-Christmas catch ups with family and friends or a romantic trip to the quaintest towns in Europe.

"To celebrate the most wonderful time of the year, we have over 100,000 seats available from only £16.99 to the likes of Bratislava, Brussels, Budapest, Kaunas, Krakow, Prague, Vienna or Vilnius and many more."
