Budget airline Ryanair has unveiled 46 routes from Warsaw this winter, including a host of new connections to and from the UK.<\/p>\n
The airline announced a major expansion at the Polish capital’s airports, adding 12 new routes and boosting passenger numbers to four million a year.<\/p>\n
Among the new services are direct flights between Warsaw and Manchester, Bristol and Liverpool, giving British travellers the option to visit the Polish capital, often referred to as Europe’s “Phoenix City” due to its remarkable reconstruction after being almost completely destroyed several times, most recently during World War 2.<\/p>\n
The expansion forms part of Ryanair’s Winter 2026 schedule and includes two additional aircraft based in Warsaw.<\/p>\n
Five new routes will operate from Warsaw Modlin Airport, including flights to Manchester and Bristol, while Liverpool joins seven new destinations being launched from Warsaw Chopin Airport.<\/p>\n
The low-cost carrier said the growth would more than double passenger traffic through Modlin to 3.2 million travellers a year, while passenger numbers at Chopin are expected to rise by more than 50%.<\/p>\n
Other new destinations from Warsaw include Bratislava, Shannon and Zagreb from Modlin, alongside Bari, Bologna, Catania, Naples, Turin and Venice from Chopin.<\/p>\n
Ryanair chief executive Michael O’Leary said the airline was delivering “record growth” in Warsaw and expanding route choice while maintaining low fares.<\/p>\n
He said: “Across Warsaw’s two airports, Ryanair will deliver even more choice, more competition and Europe’s lowest fares for Warsaw citizens and visitors to enjoy in Winter 2026.”<\/p>\n
To mark the launch, Ryanair has put more than 100,000 seats on sale with fares starting from 134 Polish zloty (\u00a327).<\/p>\n
Warsaw has become an increasingly popular city-break destination for British tourists thanks to its restored Old Town, thriving food scene and relatively affordable prices compared with many Western European capitals.<\/p>\n
Known as the “Phoenix City”, Warsaw rebuilt itself after around 85% of the city was destroyed during the Second World War, with much of its historic centre painstakingly reconstructed and later recognised by UNESCO.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Budget airline Ryanair has unveiled 46 routes from Warsaw this winter, including a host of new connections to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":10830,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[2853,8133,9,3769,8132,45],"class_list":["post-10829","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-warsaw","tag-flights","tag-phoenix-city","tag-poland","tag-ryanair","tag-uk-flights","tag-warsaw"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10829","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10829"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10829\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10830"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10829"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10829"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10829"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
