$14 to Europe? Ryanair targets US, N.E.
Could $14 airfares to Europe be coming to New England?
Several European news services reported today that executives at Ryanair, a low cost European airline, are working on launching a transatlantic airline between Europe and "secondary" US airports serving such markets as Providence and Baltimore within a few years.
Attempts by the Globe to reach Ryanair were unsuccessful.
According to Reuters, Ryanair chief executive Michael O'Leary briefed reporters about such possible low-cost transatlantic tickets during a flight from Dublin to Germany.
The Irish Examiner reported that the Irish airline intends to "launch services to a number of secondary airports such as Long Island in New York, Rhode Island in New England, and Baltimore."
Reuters quoted O'Leary as suggesting that a ticket to New York could cost 10 euro, or $13.45.
