Ryanair vs Alicante
The new government in Spain takes over power next week - the problems with Ryanair are probably the least of their problems. For example, the price of electricity needs to increase by at least 10% due to the prevarication of the previous government: I can't believe that many Spanish citizens will say - 'increase the price by 11% so that nice Mr O'Leary can carry on giving 'cheap' fares' . Ryanair needs to understand that it operates within a total European economy.
As an aside, it is reported in local newspapers here[SE Spain], that Russian tourists are becoming more and more important to the tourist economy, not in terms of numbers, but in terms of spend - and the Russians all report that they do NOT wish to travel with budget airlines. [obviously not an opportunity for Ryanair!]
