           RYANAIR ANNOUNCES PISA AS ITS 14th EUROPEAN BASE
        AND ADDS 3 NEW ROUTES TO DUBLIN, EINDHOVEN AND ALGHERO
                 20,000 SEATS FOR ONLY EUR1* FROM PISA

Ryanair, Europe's No. 1 low fares airline today (Wednesday, 20th July 2005)
named Pisa as its 14th European base and announced 3 new routes to Dublin,
Eindhoven and Alghero bringing the total number of Ryanair routes from Pisa to
10.

Michael O'Leary, CEO of Ryanair today in Pisa, said:

        "Ryanair is delighted to announce Pisa as its 14th European base. Pisa
        will now benefit from 2 brand new Boeing 737-800 Ryanair aircraft at a
        cost of $120M and 3 new routes that will deliver 1.2M passengers in the
        first full year of operation.

        "In 1998, we launched our first Italian route to Pisa and since then
        demand for Ryanair's low fares in Italy has been phenomenal. Today
        Ryanair operates 67 routes to/from Italy and will this year bring more
        European visitors to Italy than any other airline, including Alitalia.
        "In the last 7 years Ryanair has carried nearly 4M passengers through
        Pisa and today's new route announcement firmly establishes Pisa as the
        main international and low fare airport for the Tuscany and Umbria
        regions.

        "To celebrate, 20,000 seats for only EUR1*will be available on Ryanair's
        routes from Pisa and we urge all passengers to book straight away as
        demand for fares this low will be huge".
