May 8 (SeeNews) - Irish low-cost carrier Ryanair said on Friday that it is adding the Sofia to London Stansted route to its limited flight schedule starting from May 15.
Flights on the route will be operated three times per week, Ryanair said in a statement.
"We are pleased to add this route connecting Sofia and London Stansted with 3 weekly services from May 15th, as we work with EU Governments to try to keep some minimum flight links open for emergency reasons, even though the passenger loads on these flights is very low," Ryanair’s Olga Pawlonka said.
The company also decided to extend its limited flight schedule to May 28, as over 99% of Ryanair’s aircraft are grounded due to the flight bans or other restrictions imposed by most EU countries.
"At this time, we expect scheduled flights to return sometime in July," Pawlonka commented.
