Airline in no position to let fly at regulator

THE current Ryanair website includes a blistering attack from the airline on the aviation regulator with regard to possible increases in charges at Dublin airport.

It concludes that the regulator “continues to preside over a series of massive unjustified cost increases at Dublin airport. He has failed on every occasion to meet the reasonable requirements of users”.

Ryanair then says the regulator should be replaced with “someone who is willing and able to challenge the DAA (Dublin Airport Authority) monopoly, and who is willing to defend the reasonable interests of airport users”.
