Enjoy a flutter on Ryanair

PASSENGERS will be able to enjoy a flutter when they book online for flights on low-cost airline Ryanair under a new deal.

The Irish no-frills carrier is starting bingo and instant win games on the internet in partnership with on-line bingo company Jackpotjoy.com.

For the first week all Ryanair bingo and instant win customers will receive a free flight as a special introductory offer, when they play any one of the 80-plus games available.

Ryanair chief executive Michael O'Leary said today: "Finding a cheap flight with Ryanair is a racing certainty and now our passengers will have the chance to enjoy a flutter on Ryanair bingo and instant win with just some of the money they have saved.

"We are delighted to have agreed this new deal with Jackpotjoy.com and expect it to assist us in offering the lowest fares of any airline in Europe by some margin."

Noel Hayden, chief executive of Jackpotjoy.com, said: "This partnership is great news for Ryanair's passengers. With over £45 million in winnings paid monthly, we look forward to giving Ryanair's passengers a chance to win the UK's biggest online jackpots on over 80 fantastic games."
