- Bournemouth Airport to Fuerteventura Airport (FUE). Both Jet2 and Ryanair will start flying this route beginning in April.

- Bournemouth Airport to Rhodes International Airport (RHO). TUI Airways has served this route seasonally since 2021, and Jet2 will also launch services in May.

The four other routes that the Irish airline has not served in over ten years include flights from Bratislava Airport (BTS) to Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP), London Stansted Airport (STN) to Lübeck Airport (LBC), Palma de Mallorca Airport (PMI) to Lübeck, and Pescara Abruzzo Airport (PSR) to Milan-Malpensa.

In addition, out of all the new routes during the upcoming International Air Transport Association (IATA) summer season—which will begin on March 30 and end on October 26—Ryanair added more than a dozen routes out of two airports in the Middle East: Amman Queen Alia International Airport (AMM) and Tel Aviv Ben Gurion International Airport (TLV).

From Amman, Jordan, Ryanair has added ten routes that it stopped flying due to regional tensions. These include flights to European capitals such as Bucharest Henri Coandă International Airport (OTP), Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport (BUD), Rome Ciampino Airport (CIA), and Vienna airport(VIE).
