Ryanair rapped over adverts
LOW-cost airline Ryanair has been reprimanded for misleading customers over low fare offers by the Advertising Standards Authority watchdog.
Two adverts in the national press for the budget airline offered 10 one-way fares to Gothenburg and Dusseldorf, with small print explaining that the offer was subject to availability and excluded optional fees and charges. Rival EasyJet challenged the availability of the fares and queried if the adverts were misleading.
The ASA told Ryanair to ensure all seats were available at the quoted fare or to state prominently that seats were available "from" a particular price.
