RYANAIR GUARANTEES NO FUEL SURCHARGE EVER AS BRITISH AIRWAYS? FUEL
SURCHARGES ARE INVESTIGATED BY OFT AND DOJ


Ryanair, Europe?s No. 1 low fares airline today (Thursday, 22nd June 2006)
again renewed its guarantee of no fuel surcharges as the Office of Fair
Trading in the UK and the US Department of Justice launched an
investigation into the extortionate fuel surcharges applied by British
Airways and other flag carriers.

Ryanair is the only airline to guarantee its passengers that it will never
apply a fuel surcharge, not today, not tomorrow, not ever, even if oil hits
$100 a barrel. Ryanair?s average fare of £28 is now lower than British
Airways? fuel surcharge of £35.

Speaking today, Peter Sherrard, Ryanair?s Head of Communications said:

?It is about time that British Airways? rapacious fuel surcharges were
investigated. It is ridiculous that as the price of oil has doubled from
$35 to $70 a barrel, British Airways has increased its fuel surcharge 14-
fold. When British Airways collected more in fuel surcharges (£470 million)
than its entire profit after tax last year something is clearly wrong!

?There is only one way passengers can be guaranteed to avoid fuel
surcharges and that is by flying with Ryanair. Only Ryanair GUARANTEES no
fuel surcharge on all of our fares, not now, not ever?.

Yet again more spin from Ryanair. They dont fly the Transatlantic
routes but they just jump on it all. How many times has Ryanair been
investigated and also been found guilty of breaching rules and also on
things to do with prices?

They have a bloody cheek.

Indeed - as the increased fuel costs are simply absorbed into the prices at
the higher end of the price scale.

I would agree with you on that. But they also make their money up from
other things like the "Wheelchair Tax".

Ryanair "Yeah we dont charge a fuel surcharge but we will screw you
every other way possible"

Also the insurance con where you have to deselect the box saying you
dont want insurance. Now just think how many people dont actually
notice this and pay, even if its only 1 person per flight thats a lot
of money.

Anyway such is life in our world of travel
