Ryanair unveiled its top destinations to ring in the New Year 2025 including London, Malta and Prague. Separately Ryanair, published a list of New Year Resolutions for EU Govts that wish to grow aviation, tourism, and jobs in 2025 including abolishing artificial growth constraints, axing aviation taxes, reducing high ATC fees and fixing delays.

Ryanair Group CEO, Michael O’Leary, said “2025 must be the year of competitiveness and growth across Europe. Too many of Europe’s economies, such as France, Germany, and the UK, are stagnating under the dead hand of regulation, higher taxes and Government mismanagement. It is time to return to deregulation and focus on those policies that deliver growth.”
