Ryanair: Travel agents sending flight prices sky high

Ryanair today lashed travel agents for charging up to 87% charges onto the fair for flights available from the airline's website.

Speaking today, Ryanair’s Deputy CEO Michael Cawley claimed "unscrupulous travel agents" were "fleecing passengers by selling our flights at vastly inflated prices".

“Consumers are entitled to be told if a handling charge is being levied on their ticket but unfortunately many travel agents are not informing their customers and instead are ripping them off," said Mr Cawley.
