Bloody typical, a pair of 'experts' above who are shrugging off the threat of Bird Flu because some tabloids are freaking out. Well, those posters may be ignoring the information that the WHO is giving out about the threat of a pandemic but at least RB is doing what he does best, taking his employees welfare into consideration and at the same time getting some positive
PR out of it.
I'd like to see the list of other airlines where their, oh so caring, bosses are doing anything positive about the threat of avian flu. At least RB is acknowledging that there is a possible threat and by taking sensible precautions means that if there is the forecast outbreak, at least there will be some aircraft flying.
Now, lets see if O'Leary will be as magnanimous.
