Cork Airport has unveiled its 2019/20 winter schedule, which will include five new winter routes from the Rebel County in the coming months.

Beginning on October 31, passengers will be able to fly from Cork to Katowice, Poland on Ryanair’s new twice-weekly service while four popular summer routes have also been extended into the winter months.

The Cork routes to Alicante, Budapest, Malta and Poznan are now available year-round according to the new schedule.
