They are training pilots so that they have to work so many years with them but as soon as that period is up, they are leaving


I don't fly anywhere these days, and never used RyanAir even when I did. Why? Poor service, inconvenient destinations, shoddy treatment of staff, and a business model driven by the pursuit of profit above all. All just to skimp on a few quid on tickets, a need which could be easily obviated by simply saving up a bit longer before buying the wretched things.

I don't mean to be too moralistic, But just how bad has a company got to be before people no longer wish to do business with them?
