I agree with brabazon . . . Ryanair are doing what every other carrier has the opportunity to do. Fact is, this is just another storm in a tea cup. All will blow over and Ryanair and MO'L (alias Gordon Gekko) will come out the other end smelling of roses. There is no doubt Ryanair are pi****g others off but lets face the facts here, yes they are a low fare budget operator, but the are creating jobs (many fellow Pprune's have secured the RHS with FR), they are creating wealth and are an important player in the development of cross border tourism within EU member states. OK, FR ain't everybodies fav carrier but you gotta hand it to them, they have the other carriers a bit concerned and Joe Public has never witnessed such cheap air travel - long may it last !
