This is an interesting argument because Ryanair say that they have given the passenger a ticket - in the form of a PDF to the customer's computer. The law has to decide whether a virtual ticket is the same as a paper ticket. Spain does not use case law as in the UK so this case will be a one-off. It would be interesting for someone to challenge Ryanair on the same theme in the UK and see if the judge rules in the customer's favour. If so, case law would set the preceedent and MO'L would be somewhat miffed!
