Do not be surprised if some Reus-UK flights get chopped from early Nov through mid December....  and perhaps cancelled close to flight date.  Be warned.

Well if it happens make sure you quote this back to them:

Speaking in Vienna today (16/09/08), Michael Cawley, Ryanair’s Deputy Chief Executive said:

“There is only one thing worse than not securing the lowest fare for your flight. That is paying for your flight and finding that the airline which you booked with is no longer in existence or has gone bankrupt. In Ryanair’s case, if you book with the airline you can be certain of both the lowest fares guaranteed and, with Ryanair’s remarkable financial stability, be assured that it will still be flying when your flight date arrives.

Ryanair is determined to sit on its pile of cash (in excess of Euros 700 million ) - it doesn't pay dividends - in order to maintain its buying power from suppliers, airports etc.   Cabin staff are earning Euros 10.00 per sector flown. Oh, and the flight deck crew?  Over Euros 100,000 plus bonuses.   It's the captain that takes the decisions you see,  and time-keeping is the holy grail for this company.

I'm sorry I don't undestand this bit.
