Ryanair welcomes Air France price slash

Ryanair has welcomed the 70% fare reductions introduced by Air France on their midweek return fares from Strasbourg to London .

Ryanair's Chief Executive, Michael O'Leary said: "This enormous price reduction highlights just how much Air France have been overcharging consumers on the Strasbourg-London route in recent weeks.

"Air France have been so embarrassed by these high fares and Ryanair's evidence in the Court of Appeal in Nancy that they have been forced to reduce this lowest midweek return air fare to €189."
