Ryanair Brings Stranded XL Passengers Home
Ryanair, Europe’s leading low fares airline, today (12th September 2008),
in response to their request, offered the CAA the use of one of its
aircraft for the next two weeks in order to secure the return of stranded
holidaymakers abandoned by the closure of bankrupt airline XL Airways.
Ryanair is using one of its spare 737-800 aircraft to help the authorities
in the UK and Ireland provide services for outgoing and returning
passengers who have booked with the now defunct airline.
Commenting on the collapse of yet another bankrupt airline, Michael Cawley,
Ryanair’s Deputy Chief Executive, said:
“This is proof positive that passengers should not book their holidays with
flaky, financially stretched airlines such as XL. Passengers should only
book reservations with financially strong airlines such as Ryanair whom
they know will be here for the long term. We are pleased to be able to
rescue these passengers and facilitate the CAA in their efforts to
repatriate them. We strongly advise passengers to be more discerning when
they book their holidays and look first at the financial position of the
airline with which they book”.
