As for Ryanair, you have a funny definition of "flourish", although I agree in this case the problem is its daft CEO.Hard Brexit now!

I look forward to hyper-inflation (f**k the boomers who seem to not care about the young). London house prices to drop by 99%. And nothing to be imported to the UK. We can make everything we need here.

To expand the market this summer Monarch had flights from Manchester to Stockholm.
I can't imagine the market research required to make that look like a viable route - and I've worked in Stockholm this year....merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

No evidence to back this up but I wonder how many of the Ryan Air passengers would have chosen Monarch if Ryan Air had not been available - thus keeping the airline afloat (or up in the air depending on your choice.
E.g. Ryan Air stole some of Monarch's business and then did not fulfil their obligations.Comment

Eeeeeh! Looks like me holiday to Spain on 24th is fecked.
PS It does seem a bit odd they let it fold during the Ryanair crisis, surely Monarch could have had a role there?Last edited by xoggoth; 2 October 2017, 09:32.bloggoth
