Title: Re: Delay in Ryanair/Reus hub opening
Post by Nosocks on Sep 22nd, 2008 at 10:24am
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.  

- why not ? Ryanair is not now, nor has ever been, a good investment - but it seems  their numbers of pax have voted by placing their posteriors in the available seats.  :)


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.

- Your remark about the payment is totally inaccurate. Ryanair staff have contracts in either the UK or Ireland - both countries operate a "Minimum Wage" law and although the cabin staff earn a lot less than the flight deck crew, and like all of us, think we are underpaid, they do earn a livable wage.

While the "holy grail" (i.e. Time keeping) is something I feel the LARGE majority of us, that fly regularly, are only too happy to accept as a ground for choosing Ryanair.

But i guess like most things in life- nothing is perfect and we have to make choices.

This post contains no malice towards any living peron of thing and no Ryanair passengers or critics were harmed in any way in it's conception or delivery.   ;D
