               RYANAIR REDUCES PLANNED EXPANSION AT MILAN BERGAMO
                  DUE TO CONTRACTUAL DISAGREEMENT WITH AIRPORT

Ryanair, Europe's No. 1 low fares airline, today (Friday, 14th January 2005)
announced the cancellation of 3 frequencies across a number of its routes from
Milan Bergamo, due to a contractual disagreement with the airport. The airline
confirmed that it will not be expanding its base to a fifth aircraft as
originally announced in November.

Announcing the reduction in planned services from Milan Bergamo, Ryanair's
Deputy Chief Executive, Michael Cawley, said in Dublin:

        "When we announced our planned expansion from our Milan Bergamo base
        late last year the terms negotiated were clear - Ryanair would achieve
        further cost savings and an expansion of the term of its contract in
        return for a 60% increase in its presence at the airport and an increase
        in passenger numbers through the airport of over 1 million per annum.
        Unfortunately the airport feels that it cannot now honour one term of
        the agreement and regrettably we have decided to cancel part of our
        expansion which involves a reduction in frequency on three routes -
        Milan - London Stansted, Milan - Brussels Charleroi and Milan -
        Frankfurt Hahn with effect from 25th February 2005. All other services
        at Milan Bergamo will be unaffected by this decision. Passengers on the
        cancelled flights will be offered alternatives on the same route.
        "Ryanair will be announcing within the next week where this aircraft
        will now be positioned. All our growth and cost projections for fiscal
        2005/2006 remain unaffected".

Ends.                               Friday, 14th January 2005
