Ryanair boss SLAMMED for saying air travel is too cheap: 'I thought that was his shtick?'

The boss of airline Ryanair has said the cost of a plane ticket is “too cheap” – and they must increase to keep the industry alive.

Michael O’Leary believes the price of flights are likely to soar over the next five years due to the rising cost of fuel and environmental challenges they face.

I in a fortuanate position that I can't afford the petrol to get to the airport nevermind buying a plane ticket 😔😔🤔🤔

[GiloGrant]

Told you they want to raise the plane tickets, all the airport chaos bullshit is just to raise the plane tickets and holidays as well, remember they did the same for fuel oh no drivers and they raise the fuel money, now they are blaming the war .

[andreahodson]

ahh ok we will pay more, we get screwed every which way. I will never fly again into all that nonsense. Dont try to sell that line, we should pay more! Sick to death of these leeches.

[davidedbrooke]

Can’t stand the guy or his airline, won’t use it.

[adamcraig]

Hes right. Every pleb is on a plane these days

[elainebines]

What's causing a problem recruiting is, they train staff and do not give them a retainer when summer months over, so recruitment and training starts all over again - not cost effective

[kevinralph]

Flown once with Ryanair that was enough.

[kpnut]

O'Leary having his Ratner moment?

[bromion]

There's one benefit to come from all this, at least now council estate chavs and Karens won't be pissing off Spaniards every summer 😂😂

[tomjones]

Michael O'leary's got his orders from the recent B ilderberg meeting 😉

[janvanruth]

30000 pounds for a pilot?
a train driver gets about twice that.
remind me what was that rail trike about?

[RE-nguw]

The cheap tickets are offset by the overpriced expensive tickets. It balances out

[paulwood]

Germany know openly recruiting in Turkey for airport staff, can they blame BREXIT

[uberdude]

In other words he would really like to hammer Ryanair customers, but is frustrated his rivals may not follow suit.

[mariegladwin]

He has the No idear what a nightmare it is to be in Airports these days I would not travel for nothing because the service is the shits and they know because they have Hugh off sight systems and they can see the bull !!! So if possible stay home feet up relax

[sabineduret]

Sorry but please don't make me laugh... on your wages I'm sure you can afford a weekend in a five star hotel every now and again. 🤨

You only have to look at the clientele on an Ibiza flight to realise that prices need to go up to filter out the riff raff who cause problems.
I’ve been a pilot since 1988 and no one earns £30k it’s more like £60k - £160k stop telling lies…

[bobshelton]

Ryanair flights are free. They just charge £50 per aircraft step.

He must of borrowed Sean Connerys rhythm shtick
