The flights mark a major boost to the airport’s connectivity ahead of the budget airline’s record Summer 2026 schedule.

The new routes form part of Ryanair’s expanded Glasgow programme for Summer 2026, which will see the airline operate over 100 weekly flights across eight routes.

The new double-daily London Stansted service further strengthens Glasgow’s access to the English capital, while the launch of the Warsaw service enhances Glasgow’s international offering.

Jonathan Ford, portfolio manager at AGS Airports, said: “It’s fantastic to see Ryanair’s new services to London Stansted and Warsaw take off today.

“The double-daily Stansted route offers even more flexibility for business and leisure travellers heading to and from England’s innovation corridor, while Warsaw provides a valuable new link that expands the international connectivity available to our passengers.

“These launches mark the start of what will be a record summer for Ryanair at Glasgow, and we look forward to welcoming even more travellers through our doors.”

Last month, Ryanair launched its 2026 plan for Glasgow with 10 routes, including holiday hotspots like Lanzarote, Palma de Mallorca, and Tenerife, as well as city break destinations like Barcelona and Pisa.

The budget airline will also operate extra frequencies on its Alicante, Faro, Pisa, Malaga and Murcia routes.

The new schedule is underpinned by Ryanair’s two Glasgow Prestwick-based aircraft.

A spokesperson for the the roads policing unit said they “stopped a vehicle this evening with defective lights in Woodstock”.

They added: “The vehicle smelt of cannabis. The driver provided a positive drug wipe and was arrested.”

Driving under the influence of drugs (drug driving) is a criminal offence and if found guilty, the driver could face an automatic driving ban, a hefty fine, and potential prison time.

Launched on Monday, March 23, the first Walking Bus began at the Woodgreen Council Offices in Witney and ended at Witney Community Primary School.

The scheme allows pupils to join at set points along the route and walk to school together under adult supervision.

Councillor Rachel Crouch, executive member for stronger, healthy communities, said: “It was such a lovely morning seeing children chatting, smiling and enjoying the walk together.

“It’s a simple idea, but it makes a real difference.

“Families can spend time together, children arrive ready for the day, and we all benefit from quieter, safer streets.”

Described as a ‘bus route’ on foot, the Walking Bus aims to encourage daily activity, boost confidence and reduce congestion around schools.

It also offers a way for children to build friendships and start the day in a relaxed environment.

A volunteer who joined the first walk said: “It made the morning feel much calmer and more enjoyable.

“It’s a great way to start the day, and it was lovely to see the children feel part of something.”

One child taking part said: “It’s like an adventure!”

The Walking Bus will now run every school day, with routes tailored to participating families, and more routes could be added if interest grows.

The initiative is part of the council’s wider efforts to promote healthier living and sustainable travel within the community.
