Well if Ryanair doesn’t end up with a very healthy profit for next year I’ll be happy to say I was wrong.

When you write your terms improved I suppose you are referring to the collective agreements agreed in France and Italy primarily? I have first hand knowledge with these. The French contract is worth 30 percent less than the equivalent easyJet one. You wonder how the conditions are so much worse for a pilot doing exactly the same job in the same base, flying the same routes in a similar size aircraft.. and now a 20 percent reduction. Sorry but explaining it with supply and demand as it is somehow reasonable is the reason why Rayanair pilots are in this situation in the first place.
It’s a difficult situation for everyone and I hope the Ryanair pilots will fight for their terms and conditions that they’ve earned like everyone else.
