Ryanair launches first buy one get one free sale

Ryanair has launched its first “obtain one, get one no cost” sale in a bid to enhance flagging passenger quantities.

Customers who book a flight right before midnight on Thursday for travel up to December fourteen on one,600 routes will get a next ticket at no further charge.

The move follows the airline’s final decision to further lower operations thanks to coronavirus travel restrictions.

Its capability in Oct will be 40pc of 2019 stages, in comparison with the 50pc it formerly announced.

Ryanair chief govt Michael O’Leary said demand for long term bookings was awful.

“Into November and December our forward bookings are working at all-around 10pc – that’s about a quarter of the place they would usually be at this time of the calendar year,” he explained to Sky Information.

“We can not rule out position losses but in Ryanair we’re absolutely desperately doing work with our people today to avoid them.”
