More threats and bluster
Arena Newspaper, Castello d'Empurias, 11th May 2011 -
""Ryanair is threatening to cancel yet more routes* into Spain after being hit with fines totalling €1.200.000 following 65 lawsuits against the company for infringements of Spanish law. Ryanair alleges the fines are "illegal and without substantiation" and is threatening to "punish" the Spanish government for its actions by not flying there any more, at least partially.""
* ....yet more routes... because Ryanair has already withdrawn roughly 30% of its services into Girona in retaliation for the Catalan government reducing the Ryanair subsidy.
Reports that the management of easyJet developed broad smiles on hearing the news cannot be substantiated, but Confucious he say: people don't stop flying and he who is denied a seat on one cheap airline will go to another.
