    Morning
    Can anyone answer a question for me please.
    I see Ryanair are flying to above route or are about to. What size plane does it use?
    Flew into Southend a few years back from Waterford and it was a prop plane and scared me no end...operated by Dr Lingus through aer Arran I think back then.

    Thanks Roy

    Ryanair only operate one type of aircraft in its fleet. Boeing 737-800.

    Although smaller you were in no more danger flying in the turboprop than you would be in any other aircraft. Both very modern and safe.

    The Flybe planes that were/about to cease flying DUB to SEN route aren't prop planes - apologies I don't know the actual make model. I live 15 mins from SEN, looking forward to Ryanair moving in, prices already look much better - now if only they'd sort out the trains on that line but that's another yarn for another forum.

    I loved the Aer Arann turboprops. It felt like you were in a WW2 bomber.
