Airline optimistic about vaccination programmes as boss criticises UK government over holiday warnings
Ryanair plans to increase the number of its flights to 80% of pre-pandemic levels by July, as the airline’s chief executive criticised the UK government for warning against booking overseas summer holidays this year.
Michael O’Leary said he was “very confident” that Britons would be “going to the beaches of Europe” and that Ryanair would have a “strong summer”, thanks to the UK and EU’s rapid, albeit politically fraught, vaccination programmes.
