Given that there is a range of other and far superior budget airlines I wonder if this will end up being O'Leary's Ratner's moment....?  rubschin:

O'Leary would do or say anything for publicity.   If he said grass was green or any other truth it would only be by random chance he said something right

He'd probably even climb on a roof and fall off it

If that happens Baldymort could sue for trademark infringement...  rubschin:


To be honest I'm working on the monkeys and typewriters perspective where O'Leary is concerned. At some point he's going to manage to nark off his customer base so much that they desert in droves, it's just a matter of time.

It's his shareholders he needs to worry about

But in this case they may agree with him as Brexit does endanger their (and Easyjet's, Norway Air etc etc ) business models

Then one has to wonder why they have just announced new routes from (soon to be ex-EU) Bournemouth and Liverpool to Cyprus...? ::)

Routes come and go, the actual investment in a route like that is stuff all
The default remains that if May goes down the 'no deal is better than' route they can't fly those routes and many others

Utter bollox... ::)

Do you honestly think that if it went 'no deal' he would simply park up all the planes , take the mahoosive loss and walk away...?

Do you honestly think that he would have signed up new routes if that was even a slight possibility...?

Of course not... ::)

It is simply political posturing...

Moves £10 from left to right pocket

At least I know what 'no deal' means.  Unsurprisingly it means no deal which means no rights to fly.  That's why I know 'no deal' is the boast of feckwittery but hey ho the Rees-Moggaristas just love posturing for such.

But then they have their plan:

Another Ad to fast forward then.  Can't match BMs avoidance record but we rarely see any Ad we don't want to.
