Ryanair has signed a partnership with Air Europa to sell the Spanish airline’s long-haul flights on its website.
From today, Ryanair customers can book Air Europa flights on 20 long-haul routes from Madrid to 16 countries in North, Central and South America, including Argentina, Brazil, Cuba, Mexico and the US.
In a second phase of the partnership, to be launched later this year, Ryanair customers will be able to connect onto Air Europa long-haul flights through Madrid.
Ryanair CEO Michael O’Leary said: "Ryanair operates over 50 short haul routes to/from Madrid and now our customers can book flights on Air Europa long-haul routes to destinations including Buenos Aires, Havana and New York.
"This partnership is the latest AGB enhancement as we continue our journey to becoming the ‘Amazon of travel.
"We continue to speak to a number of other long haul airlines about potential connecting flight partnerships and we look forward to offering our 130 million customers an even greater choice and range of long haul services in 2018."
