I know quite a few may have already taken their summer hols abroad but it appears Ryan Air intend to cancel between 40-50 flights a day over the next 6 weeks affecting thousands of passengers.
The compensation bill looks to run into millions as people are cancelling and booking elsewhere.
All stems around the fact they've given pilots too much holiday time off in consecutive months and it's messed up their staffing rotas. Coupled to to the fact Swiss air have recruited over a 100 pilots from Ryan Air in the last few weeks and it's left them with little or no pilot cover.
Serves the greedy get right for not paying fare wages. My Daughter was previously cabin crew for them and the stories she had about the way they treated staff has some bearing on this fiasco.
Good luck to anyone trying to sort a flight out with Ryan Air.
I'm supposed to be off on Sunday to Portugal with Ryanair. Not heard anything from them yet just the same standard thing they keep saying "If you haven't had an e-mail your flight is on schedule"
Some people have claimed to have received an e-mail 24 hours before they were due to fly saying it was cancelled though so i'm still a little worried.
I've watched the news today. All cancellations will be announced Wednesday.
It's a scandel of the highest order. My mum is due to come over here at the weekend to spend her 70th birthday. I'm Hoping it isn't cancelled on the way out. I don't mind looking after her until they find a seat ont way back!
What are they going to do if they cancel the outward journey and not the return? Will they compensate her for one but not the other because she should have been there? Who fecks up like this?
I hate Ryan air but have a flight booked for the 5th of Oct, the sloppy *******s have lost 140 pilots, quite careless where did they put them
Looking through the lists today, they seem to be cancelling outward & return flights, so if one is cancelled so should the other be. Ah, just realised that of course is flights on the same day, which won't be the case for your mum.
Hoping that I get to Manchester next week for the Blackburn game.
Latest cancellation list has just been put up on Ryanair website.
