Ryanair suing eDreams over alleged screen scraping

Ryanair claims eDreams fails to explain or display the price differential between prices Ryanair charges and those on eDreams websites in a misleading or unfair manner such that there is no, or insufficient, transparency as to the fact the price would be cheaper if purchased directly from the airline

Ryanair is seeking to bring Commercial Court proceedings against online booking provider eDreams over alleged breaches of the airline's terms of use through "screen scraping" activities.

Ryanair DAC claims eDreams Odigeo SA and its subsidiary, Vacaciones eDreams SL, are breaching its website terms using the airline's flight data by selling Ryanair flights under brands including eDreams, Opodo, Govoyages, and Travellink.
