The low-cost carrier and the Erasmus Student Network (ESN) are extending their partnership for another year. For the seventh year, European students now have the opportunity to travel to their exchange projects on more favorable terms.
Since September 2017, this partnership has offered Erasmus students their own booking platform, through which they can get a 10 percent discount on flights and a free 20kg checked bag for 4 one-way flights (or 2 return flights) on the airline's website. Since the partnership between Ryanair and ESN began in 2017, there have been over 600.000 bookings on Ryaanir.com.
“Financial hurdles remain the number one obstacle for students entering exchange programs such as Erasmus and support is key to ensuring that students from diverse backgrounds have access to international opportunities. During these six years, the partnership has helped financially disadvantaged students to make the most of their exchange programs,” said Juan Rayón González, President of ESN.
