Ryanair havn't reduced Nice. Its operating longer this summer than last. EI were always strong on Nice compared to FR.
if Ryanair took over Aer Lingus tomorrow, it wouldn't make a difference to competition, because again there is none as it is.
It would a massive one. You will be paying much more to get to the costa than now. Everytime I have checked EI prices in summer with baggage and all EI have being cheeper and FR "claim" to be a loco.
FR are ripping passengers from Ireland off and people don't realise. All you need to do is compare prices from the UK. We pay almost double to get to AGP than passengers in the UK becasue they have MON,LS,EZY to keep FR at bay and the UK of APD of £24.
For a date in July next year EI are €55 cheeper than FR for a 1 adult DUB-AGP + bag. Its also false advertising on FR's behalf.
