they made 600 mm euros on assets valued at 9 billion - that's a 6.6% rate of return
not exactly comparable to Apple who make around 30% |
As far as I'm aware Apple's level of customer service doesn't stoop as low to telling customers to "phuck off"!

New Captcha - at last
Ryanair have announced a new captcha which they say will allow “speedier access” to the site, apparently a less complicated version developed by Solve Media
|
Ryanair Flying Even Higher? I, too, would prefer to discuss it within the present "Ryanair" thread. Icarus coming to mind :).
|
barossavalley - would that be the same Captcha by SolverMedia that has been live on the FR website for the last few months ?
|
It was only live on the Irish site followed by UK one but not on others.
|
Anyone on this thread no if Ryanair is in talks with BFS? Seen on 'The Irish News' website
|
From The Times article:
Ryanair believes that it has spotted a business opportunity in flying Israeli children on educational visits to former Nazi concentration camps. The Irish airline revealed yesterday that its seemingly unstoppable international expansion was likely to continue, with a launch of new routes in 2014 linking Central European cities to Israel. Howard Millar, its deputy chief executive, suggested that flights between Poland and Tel Aviv could prove particularly profitable. “It seems that every Israeli child has to go to Poland to go and see Auschwitz. We can help them with that", he said. |
Amusing that they released this news at the same time as the flight and cabin crew started getting their story further out. They will publish Q1 on July 29th so as to deliberately destroy the stories released the week before:rolleyes: Clever that:ugh::ugh: |
The usual brash sales technique is likely to need to be changed substantially around Israeli kids being taken to see death camps like Auschwitz-Birkenau - culturally this is very different to someone going on a fun weekend break to Rome.

The usual brash sales technique is likely to need to be changed substantially around Israeli kids being taken to see death camps like Auschwitz-Birkenau - culturally this is very different to someone going on a fun weekend break to Rome. There is and has always been sizeable groups of Jewish people visiting Poland for many many years. Doubtful that is likely to change irrespective of which airline is flying. Journos read something into every single question and every single answer...............kind of like asking you DJ do you like Beer or Wine and then making a supposed headline that you hate beer because you said you prefer wine. |

They will publish Q1 on July 29th so as to deliberately destroy the stories released the week before:rolleyes: If these figures had not been available, then perhaps something else would have been? I was not criticising - I was admiring their publicity machine and those that work for them, formally or informally as the case may be. |
Sure I take your point - but my point was that someone posted this in PPRuNe - and in a separate thread just when bad publicity was being put out. Not the first time news like this on FR or other airline has been put into R&N before being moved into here and then combined with existing thread. Its what Mods do :hmm: As for supposed bad publicity being put out...................Its Ryanair so just another week, how long have you been on here ? |
This is a very long thread and I apologise if this has been mentioned at some point, anyone else think O'Leary's determination to get EI is payback (and a massive ego trip) for Ryanair's difficult early years.
The underdog buying the company that almost put them out of business? |
A wonderful bit of de-bunking here. Pointing out that the stats cannot be proven - which we kinda knew - but good to see it done so well.
BBC News - Ryanair: Is it really Europe's most punctual airline? |
FR shareholding in EI UK action
Rumour is 50% of current shareholding has to be sold , sweet, of course a lengthy appeal process and millions more on legal costs wasted but this expensive FR folly is at last going to end.
Thank you uk , you did what Roi and EU couldn't or wouldn't do.....:D |
I don't think it'll be that simple. Given that the ECJ have already ruled that Ryanair can keep their shareholding, I'd say they'll have grounds for appeal.

Attempt by UK to force 2 companies headquartered and registered in another country will be interesting, it allows any 3rd country to do the same to UK companies. This will not be lost on UK companies who will then see German courts intervening in UK companies using UKs own precedence. |

Sunday my ryanair virginity will be lost ha. And btw there was no boarding pass print out fee, as you all stated :) have not flown on a jet aircraft since 2007(virgin 747). Been a flybe dash 8 junkie for past few years.:}
I remember way back in 2011 there was talk of ryanair trying to negotiate with GLA and moving from PIK. I assume this ended in a "we aren't givining you a bargain deal so move along" from HAH. As they don't fly from any Heathrow airport holdings, so makes Sense. |
