RYANAIR CALLS FOR NATS CEO, MARTIN ROLFE, TO QUIT AS NATS STAFF SHORTAGES DISRUPT 7,000 PASSENGERS OVERFLYING THE UK TODAY (WED, 16 JULY)

Ryanair, the UK’s No.1 low fares airline, today (Wed, 16 July) called on NATS CEO, Martin Rolfe, to step down after NATS staff shortages delayed 38 flights by up to 1 hour on Wednesday (16 July), unfairly disrupting the travel plans of over 7,000 passengers overflying the UK.

Ryanair has long campaigned for ATC reform to ensure that ATCs are fully staffed, but UK ATC delays are getting worse due to repeated NATS mismanagement and staff shortages. Ryanair calls on all passengers to visit the ‘Air Traffic Control Ruined Your Flight’ webpage and demand that Transport Minister, Heidi Alexander, sack Martin Rolfe and reform NATS’s hopeless ATC service, so that airlines and passengers do not suffer further avoidable ATC delays at the hands of NATS’s continued mismanagement and staff shortages.
