Being slated by Which?, O`Leary would regard as little more than free publicity..

They provide a reliable regular bus service, not a luxury coach once a week - which and its readers need to get real. |

Unlike other surveys there is no proof of a single person answering the survey 1.) they have ever flown Ryanair 2.) involved in contacting Ryanair customer services. Yet UK media quote them as Gospel. |
Ryanair confirms that will close 4 bases in Spain next January. https://www.brecorder.com/2019/08/24...xt-year-union/ |
One can’t help but wonder how quickly will those airports become new bases for other airlines in the group that are on a lower cost base? |
Personally I think it’s a mix of the Jet2 effect and the Max aircraft issues. |

I suspect that now their staff are on proper contracts and therefore more expensive than casual labour, that their cost base is much the same as their competitors. How does Wizz pay its staff?

More of a contant willingness to review what they are doing, what is working, what is not, what needs to change quickly and slowly and doing it. No resting on Laurels but getting better all the time and not being wedded to history. In addition there are 4 people seeking MOL's job in 2022. |

Maybe 30+ flights but now I have now stopped using them completely. Jet2 beats them into a cocked hat.Price,their own,not Agency staff, aircraft, timings -the lot SSF |

Thats my point, Jet2 have given people a choice and they are all over the canaries, hence making Ryanair review what is not working “for them” the Jet2 effect. |
I’m aware of the route network, however the UK holiday market especially in the south East is / was massive to Ryanair, in the past few years Jet2 has stomped all over Ryanair on almost all holiday routes and it doesn’t look like they have any intention of slowing down anytime soon. |

What routes does FR operate with aircraft based in the Canaries to the UK where there's an overlap with Jet2. I would've thought any Canaries routes from STN/LTN would be operated by aircraft based in the UK, which is then irrelevant to the closure of the Canaries bases.
