The decision confirmed that the headline banners on www.ryanair.com <http://www.ryanair.com/> are not misleading to the consumer and therefore there will be no changes to the current website. The decision ensures that Ryanair can continue to promote the cost of its low fare flights and special offers excluding taxes and charges on its home page. Commenting on today's decision, Ryanair's Head of Customer Care, Caroline Green said, "This was an unnecessary action against Ryanair. This case was brought on the bases of no complaint by a member of the public. Our website home page clearly shows consumers that prices quoted are exclusive of taxes and charges. The website also includes details of the taxes and charges to be paid by the consumer. Over 30 million passengers travel with Ryanair each year and over 98% of these passengers book via www.ryanair.com <http://www.ryanair.com/> .". -- Remove `spamtrapped` to reply off-list http://jim-mason.fotopic.net/c162491.html Back to top Jim Mason Guest Posted: Thu Mar 03, 2005 9:44 pm    Post subject: Re: RYANAIR WELCOMES COURT DECISION In article <422776cc$0$84735$c3e8da3 (AT) news (DOT) astraweb.com>, [email]no.spam (AT) talk21 (DOT) com[/email] says...

BUDGET airline Ryanair has been convicted of misleading customers over the price of flights advertised on its website. A jury at Chelmsford Crown Court found the airline guilty of six breaches of the Consumer Protection Act for failing to spell out the full cost of flights from Stansted to various European destinations. Same story but a different slant! I am aware of that - their PR dept are beyond belief.
