Passengers furious over ‘ruined’ travel plans, with 285,000 journeys likely to be affected by airline’s move to improve punctuality. Ryanair has announced it will cancel 40 to 50 flights a day for the next six weeks due to a backlog of staff leave.
The budget airline says the measure is designed to improve punctuality, which has fallen below 80% in the first two weeks of September.
Some customers have reacted furiously to the cancellations, claiming holiday plans have been ruined by the decision.
