easyJet takes advantage of Ryanair website shutdown
26.06.09
When Ryanair shut its website for 10 hours for an upgrade yesterday, its rival easyJet responded by knocking 10% off flights on 10 popular routes. They included Stansted to Malaga and Faro, Liverpool to Ibiza and Bristol to Alicante.
A spokesman for easyJet said: ‘We are always happy to help out disappointed Ryanair customers. We also fly to major airports, not random airfields miles from anywhere, which for many Ryanair passengers will be something of a revelation.’
A Ryanair spokesperson responded: ‘easyJet ,with an average fare 65% higher than Ryanair's average fare, only dares to compete when Ryanair closes its website for upgrade’. The easyJet spokesman didn't respond that 99.6% of statistics are made up, but it would have been funny if he did!
