Ryanair’s Michael O’Leary Believes This Unusual Destination ‘Can Become A Major Tourist Attraction’

Michael O'Leary has said that this country can become the next main tourist destination for Ryanair flyers and tourists alike.

On a recent visit to Israel, the Ryanair CEO met with the Israel Tourism Minister to talk about the potential of their country.

He said that there is major plans for further expansion into Israel following recent announcements of new routes from Tel Aviv to Athens, Thessaloniki, Sofia, and Bucharest.

There is currently 15 Ryanair routes that fly to and from Tel Aviv and O'Leary believes this is just the start for Ryanair and Israel's relationship.

"People are fed up with destinations like the Canary Islands and such places. Israel has wonderful beaches and very good food.

"If we can offer reasonable prices then Israel with its weather and beautiful beaches can become a preferred destination.

"We can bring millions more to Israel. We can grow as fast as the authorities allow us to."
