Ryanair To Appeal Eu Court Ruling On Austrian Airlines State Aid

14 Jul 2021

Ryanair today (14 July) noted the EU General Court’s ruling on discriminatory State aid favouring Austrian Airlines, a subsidiary of the Lufthansa Group which in June 2020 was granted €150m aid by the Austrian government. Since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, Austrian Airlines has received €600m in State aid and the Lufthansa Group more than €11bn.

While the Covid-19 crisis has caused damage to all airlines that contribute to the economy and the connectivity of Austria, the Austrian government decided to support only its inefficient former “national” airline (now German-owned), discriminating against all others in clear breach of the fundamental principles of EU law. Ryanair subsequently referred the European Commission’s approval of this €150m illegal subsidy to Austrian Airlines to the EU General Court in November 2020. Ryanair will appeal today’s General Court judgment to the Court of Justice of the EU.

 

A Ryanair spokesperson said:

“One of the EU’s greatest achievements is the creation of a single market for air transport. The European Commission’s approval of State aid to Austrian Airlines went against the fundamental principles of EU law and have turned back the clock on the process of liberalisation in air transport by rewarding inefficiency and encouraging unfair competition.

Ryanair is a truly European airline and a champion of competition and consumers. Our instinct in a crisis is to seek efficiencies and cost savings, to offer more routes at lower fares – while remaining Europe’s greenest airline. We will now ask the EU Court of Justice to overturn this unfair subsidy. 

If Europe is to emerge from this crisis with a single market that serves the consumers and the economy, airlines must be allowed to compete on a level playing field. Undistorted competition  weeds out inefficiency and drives low fares and choice. Subsidies, on the other hand, encourage inefficiency and will harm consumers for decades to come.”

Ryanair To Launch Unsubsidised Dublin – Kerry Route. Lower Fares To Save Irish Taxpayer €3.95m P.A.

14 Jul 2021

Ryanair, Ireland’s favourite airline today (14th July) announced that it would launch a commercial, unsubsidised, flight schedule on the Dublin – Kerry route commencing on Wed 28th July without any subvention or subsidy under the Irish Government’s PSO Scheme. This commercial route will save the taxpayer almost €4m p.a. in PSO subsidies, which were previously wasted on failed operations provided by Stobart Air.

This route will be served by one of Ryanair’s Boeing 737 800 aircraft, and will start on Wed 28th July, with 1 daily rotation, rising to a double daily (morning & evening) service from Wed 1st Sept delivering over 5,000 seats per week. Ryanair will work closely with its partners at Kerry and Dublin airports to minimise costs, so that this commercial service between Dublin and Kerry can survive and thrive without the need for Government PSO subsidies, which have failed to deliver a sustainable service in recent years.

Fares on this Dublin – Kerry route will start from €19.99 one way, and Ryanair hopes that by providing a double daily schedule on B737 aircraft this Autumn, that Ryanair’s low fares can stimulate increased passenger traffic to/from Kerry Airport, building on the success of Ryanair’s international flights from Kerry to London, Manchester, Frankfurt, Alicante and Faro.

Ryanair’s CEO Eddie Wilson said:

“Ryanair’s double daily service between Dublin and Kerry will quadruple the number of seats on the Kerry – Dublin route to over 5,000 per week. To make this commercial service viable, we will need lower costs at Kerry and Dublin airports as recommended by the Government’s Aviation Task Force, which still remains unactioned by Transport Minister Eamon Ryan more than 12 months after it was submitted to him (10 July 2020) by his own Aviation Taskforce.

Minister Ryan’s failure to take any action to promote air travel recovery has led to Ireland being the most damaged aviation market in Europe as evidenced by this week’s Eurocontrol statistics (attached). Other Island Nations like Malta and Cyprus have vastly outperformed Ireland, which remains “Paddy last”.

Ryanair as always will stimulate traffic using our unbeatable low fares which have already seen the successful growth of 6 international routes to Kerry from London-Stansted, Manchester, Frankfurt, Alicante, Faro and Luton. We hope to build on that success to make this unsubsidised commercial service between Kerry and Dublin viable for the long term.

These new flights mean that Dublin passengers can readily access Kerry for short breaks, and the people of Kerry can access Dublin for business, for leisure, and also to make flight connections through Dublin Airport. We will be offering the Kerry football team free flights to Dublin in late August, where we hope they will meet (and beat) Dublin in this year’s All Ireland Final”.

Ryanair’s Director of Commercial, Jason McGuinness, said:

“As vaccination rollout programmes continue in the coming months and Europe’s international travel rebounds, we are delighted to announce a new Knock route to Milan Bergamo, operating twice weekly from November as part of Ryanair’s Irish Winter ‘21 schedule. Knock consumers can now look forward to exploring the wonders of Italy’s fashion capital, or choose from 8 other UK or Spanish routes available from Knock this winter.

Mindful that Covid restrictions change regularly, customers can now book flights for a well-deserved break knowing that if they need to postpone or change their travel dates, they can do so up to two times with a zero-change fee until the end of December 2021.

To celebrate, we are launching a seat sale with fares available from just €19.99 for travel until the end of March 2022, which must be booked by midnight Thursday 15th July. Since these amazing low fares will be snapped up quickly, customers should log onto www.ryanair.com to avoid missing out.”

Welcoming the news, Joe Gilmore, Managing Director, Ireland West Airport commented:

“The airport are delighted to welcome a new winter service to Milan with Ryanair, which will provide the People of the West and North West of Ireland with our first winter European city break destination, which I have no doubt will be very popular following the resumption of non-essential travel from Monday 19th July – particularly amongst the weekend break seekers and the skiing community. We thank Ryanair for their continued unwavering support for the airport in expanding their route network during what continues to be a most challenging period”.

Como parte de las iniciativas de desarrollo profesional de Ryanair, la mayoría de las vacantes de capitán creadas por estas nuevas entregas de aviones se cubrirán mediante promociones internas, lo que crea oportunidades para los Primeros Oficiales de reemplazo y, en última instancia, para los nuevos pilotos cadetes que pueden iniciar su carrera con Ryanair para convertirse en la próxima generación de Primeros Oficiales y Capitanes de Ryanair.

Los cursos de formación tendrán lugar a lo largo de 2021 de cara a que estén listos para el verano de 2022 y cubrirán puestos en toda Europa. Ryanair se ha asociado con la Airline Flight Academy de Dublín para impartir cursos de formación en Boeing 737 como parte de esta campaña de contratación.

Darrell Hughes, People Director de Ryanair, ha declarado: “Mientras recibimos más de 210 aviones Boeing 737-8200, Ryanair contratará a más de 2.000 pilotos en los próximos 3 años para cubrir los puestos creados por este crecimiento. Es una gran noticia para los pilotos experimentados y aspirantes, pero también para nuestros propios pilotos que disfrutarán de ascensos rápidos. A lo largo de la pandemia, Ryanair ha trabajado estrechamente con nuestra gente para salvar puestos de trabajo y estamos encantados de empezar a planificar la vuelta al crecimiento en los próximos años a medida que nos recuperamos de la crisis de Covid-19 y crecemos hasta los 200 millones de pasajeros en el año fiscal 2026”.

Ryanair Calls On Minister Ryan To Follow The UK’s Science

09 Jul 2021

 Confirm Vaccinated Families With Kids (U18) Can Travel Without Quarantine From 19 July

Ryanair, Europe’s largest airline, today (9 July) called on Transport Minister Eamon Ryan to immediately follow the UK Govt’s decision to allow both vaccinated citizens and their U18 kids to travel freely from 19 July without quarantine restrictions.

The UK Govt’s decision has given UK families a much-needed summer holiday boost and Minister Ryan (and NPHET) should now follow the UK science which shows that vaccines are highly effective at preventing serious illness / fatalities and have broken the link between rising Covid case no’s and hospitalisations. With little Covid risk to children U18, they should be allowed to travel freely to/from the EU with their families this summer from 19 July.

 

A Ryanair spokesperson said:

“The UK and other EU countries continue to open up and remove travel restrictions, yet Minister Ryan and NPHET continue to dither and mismanage Ireland’s reopening. With less than 60 Covid cases in hospital and less than 17 in ICU’s there is no justification for keeping Irish families locked up despite very low Covid hospitalisations and ICU numbers in Ireland.

Ryanair calls on Minister Ryan to follow the UK science, apply the same rules in Ireland and remove the need for vaccinated families and their U18 children to quarantine upon return from EU holiday hotspots, which will give Irish families a much-needed certainty and a late summer holiday in July, Aug & Sept”.
