Dear dear me. I hope its temporary!

It was.....in fact ten minutes!

Any guesses how much that is in potential lost revenue?

Are we talking easyJet (known as the web's favourite airline) or Ryanair (which is)?
Assuming the latter:
2,140,000 pax per month = 71,000 a day (assuming bookings flow evenly)
71,000 a day = 2958 an hour
or about 500 in 10 minutes.

Average spend £40 = £20,000.
Almost an afternoon's pay...

If it's EZY, a few less pax, a bit higher revenue - the answer's close.

Exclamation

10 minutes - I am sure it was much more than that!

I checked the website so many times, in the end I gave up. I wouldn't be surprised if the actual down time was more than an hour.
