Ryanair confirms its 19th destination from Bournemouth Airport

It has been announced that Agidir is the latest destination where residents can now fly to from Bournemouth Airport.

Ryanair has confirmed it will start twice weekly flights to the beach destination of Agadir in Morocco from 1st April.

Bournemouth Airport has reported that it expects to handle more than one million passengers in 2024 as Ryanair confirms its 19th destination from the airport. The last time it hit that milestone was 15 years ago in 2008.

To cater for the expected passenger growth, airport owners Regional and City Airports is investing more than £5m in new facilities, equipment, staff and training.

Steve Gill, managing director of Bournemouth Airport, said: “We’ve embarked on a major investment programme to cater for the anticipated growth in passenger numbers. Before the pandemic we saw 800,000 passengers. Having exceeded that this year, we are confident of seeing more than one million in 2024.

“That’s a tremendous achievement and reflects the great range of destinations available from Bournemouth Airport and our commitment to providing the best possible experience for passengers.

“While our investment programme continues, we thank passengers for their patience and aim to complete the majority of work during the quieter winter months.”

The airport has said that in the coming months passengers will notice several improvements in the terminal as part of the £5 million investment programme. You can find out more on this latest news over on their website - www.bournemouthairport.com
