Don't get me wrong - I hope the guys & girls at Ryanair are able to achieve an improvement in terms for themselves. It was more of a comment relating to the article posted above which pinned the future of FR on the passengers when it appears that it is finally the employees / contractors that need to carpe diem.
If they are successful then it is likely to lift T&Cs for everyone in the industry in Europe as they are such a large player.
Best of luck to all involved.
