Ryanair launches US site calling on tourists to trade Route 66 for Wild Atlantic Way

Ryanair launches US site calling on tourists to trade Route 66 for Wild Atlantic Way: "The airline says American tourists continue to travel to Europe every year with London, Dublin, Barcelona, Rome and Paris the top destinations for US customers. It adds that most of these visitors come from California, New York, Texas, Florida and New Jersey.
A statement from Ryanair reports US customers are now able to book their flights in dollars and are entitled to bring a free small second carry-on bag on board their flight.
The new site also features Ryanair’s “Fare Finder” which allows customers to find the lowest fares on offer through price point and by specifying their route and travel period.
Ryanair chief executive Michael O’Leary said in November he would like the airline to operate a low-cost transatlantic service from 15 European cities to about 12 US cities, but that sourcing the long-haul aircraft is a challenge.
“We would need a fleet of long haul aircraft. There is a historical shortage. We can’t get the aircraft we need for three or four years.”"
