             RYANAIR ANNOUNCES NEW DAILY ROUTE FROM DUBLIN TO RIGA

Ryanair, Europe's No. 1 low fares airline today (Thursday, 3rd November 2005)
announced a new route from Dublin to Riga (Latvia) that will operate daily from
the 9th January 2006.

Announcing the news in Dublin today, Michael Cawley, Ryanair's Deputy CEO said:

       "We are delighted to start our first route between Ireland and Eastern
       Europe with a daily flight to Riga commencing in January 2006. In the
       first year of operations, 80,000 passengers will enjoy our low fares
       between Dublin and the Latvian capital for a fraction of the high prices
       being charged by Aer Lingus and Air Baltic.

       "Ryanair began operating flights to and from Riga at the end of 2004 and
       now offers daily routes from Riga to 6 European cities. Riga's 800 year
       history has made it a hugely popular destination for tourists around
       Europe and the leisure market from Ireland to Riga will be transformed
       because Ryanair's low fares will make it an affordable city break
       destination for the first time.

       "The considerable Latvian population in Ireland will also benefit from
       our low fares allowing them to travel more often between the two
       countries courtesy of Europe's lowest fares and save a fortune in the
       process.

       "This new route goes on sale today on www.ryanair.com with widely
       available fares from only EUR9.99* and we are advising passengers to book
       now as demand for fares this low to Riga will be very strong".
