Ryanair - 9
It does however show that Ryanair's own claims are at best based on incomplete statistics. Ryanair's own claims are as much conjecture as this story is. The logical conclusion is that Ryanair are not necessarily to be believed and while BBC may not have proved that Ryanair are not the most punctual, Ryanair have certainly not conclusively proved that they are.
Then again a company that repeatedly has been proved to lie in court is hardly carrying much credibility when it comes to inconclusive stats.

Happy to see the records of the trials that have taken place where found guilty of perjury.

Airlines view on punctuality
All airlines spin this punctuality issue
Sector times is the first spin they make take two city pairs , flying time say sixty minutes but publish 75 mins as the scheduled time thus increasing the on time performance ...
Who allowed airlines to decide ON TIME is upto 15 mins late !!!
No verifiable table of like for like on time performance exists
Airlines spin all results just as every other industry does so Fr are really
Only guilty of that annoying cockerel crow when they arrive on time but ten minutes after scheduled arrival time in their own schedule !!! ie under 15 minutes
Lets not even get started on on time landings and actual time any airline lets a
Passenger off the aircraft
All spin
MOL doesn't to my knowledge lie in court....he has been could guilty of
"The truth and MOL testimony are infrequent bedfellows"
Is that clear enough?
FR are no more guilty on this issue than any other carrier , it's just that tape they play ....

It's the equivilant of Ireland attempting to block IAG's takeover of bmi because they happened to operate routes to Ireland.

VIP news re FR
I believe it's very important that we are clear on he thing here
No one as ever accused FR of telling the truth , to do so would be
Defamatory
and we would not want to tread this path
Ducksie sorry racedo I apologize if anyone
Has ever done this.
Now lets agree all airlines spin punctuality stats equally

I'm sure your efforts to spin this will be creative, but the judges words speak for themselves.
The claim made is very clear "repeatedly proved to lie in court" are the words used.
As can be seen from what you posted this is NOTHING of the sort.
"The judge said that Mr O'Leary had misrepresented him in an 'offensive letter' he had written to Noel Dempsey. "
is NOT lying in court nor even close as since when does a letter go through court.
You have made something up and have nothing to back up the claim a single time much less repeatedly.

Ah now racedo
Don't forget major shareholder had to send a personnel apology to Irish regulator
For mollies rant ?
Very embarising when your CEO once again and again
Has stepped out of line ?
Financial and publicity liability ? Yes.

Good man racedo, despite the obvious negative affects to your blood pressure, your enthusiasm for the cause is touching. One hopes you're being properly compensated for working so hard of a Sunday night!
Looks like we'll agree to disagree, I've no doubt the general readership of this forum can work out what "misrepresentation" and uncomfortable bedfellows with the truth actually mean. Bonderman certainly understood what he heard, enough to apologise.

In that particular incident I thought the apology was made in the witness box and it was accepted.
Surely the on-time statistics relate to the whole network and not a particular route? Arrival performance being based on arrival at gate.

O?Leary pledge to complete Ryanair?s world domination | Irish Examiner
In terms of management he is treated and treats his staff as if the company is fully his, after all he turned the airline from a fleet of six aircraft or so to now over 300. Shareholders have a complete opposite view, but just remember racedo anything O'Leary does which see's him on national news brings in Ryanair, horse-racing and even Yes to Lisbon in 2009 represented as Ryanair.

So why is that without fail, anytime anything anti-Ryanair becomes available on this forum or any other you spring up out of the blue? Because its precisely not out of the blue is it? Seriously mate your agenda is obvious. And If me and others are wrong, then why is it in your own view you take it upon yourself to chant out the usual nonsense about Ryanair and defend them to the ground, because If I didn't work for the company or wasn't on the payroll It wouldn't be in my interest to do so.
However I am certainly not anti-Ryanair, their custom is the reason I am employed. Love or hate them they do a service well, however at times both the CEO who I respect in aspects takes actions which are highly questionable with regards to defamatory statements to other business' and the company's own employees and also with describing a PR job recently taken up by an existing management employee as the worst in the world what exactly is he trying to achieve? Because Ryanair didn't receive anything near the person they need in that Job proposal, well outside existing management which says a lot.

I don't think many pilots actually "work" for Ryanair. They "work" for some tin-pot agency, wholly owned by Ryanair and are termed as "self employed agency contractors" but with no freedom to do extraneous work.
This "self employment" stunt is being looked at by many government agencies throughout Europe to determine the legality of it. I think in fact Racedo is one of these "numpties" or "numb nuts" that MOL likes to call his staff.
