Will pax change their buying process? Never
Will pilots continue to apply / stay at Ryanair? Finally debatable.
Regardless of pax demand, can the current flight volume be maintained with insufficient crew? Absolutely not
Will investors be interested in Ryanair if they cannot continue to deliver growth? Doubtful if there is doubt over Ryanair’s ability to crew current let alone increased flight volume.
Can Ryanair continue without investors / growth? Not for ever.
So don’t look to pax or Ryanair or investors to change. The ONLY group with the power to change is the crew.
Hopefully there is much going on under the radar with the crew to drive this change. They should continue to work together while not shouting their plans from the rooftops so that the Chief Pikey can’t move to counter their actions.
