RYANAIR IS THE PASSENGERS' FAVOURITE FROM LONDON
Ryanair, Europe's No. 1 low fares airline, today (Wednesday, 29th November 2006)
welcomed the release of the CAA's market share statistics for January - October
2006, which again confirm that Ryanair is the No. 1 choice for UK passengers
travelling to Europe's top cities, in addition to being the most punctual
airline.
Speaking today, Ryanair's Head of Communications Peter Sherrard said:
"These latest statistics from the CAA prove that Ryanair is again the
passengers' favourite on routes from London. The travelling public keep
flocking in their droves to Ryanair, because we offer the lowest fares,
the best punctuality and a no fuel surcharge ever guarantee".
