Wafted from paradise to Luton Airport

In message , at 21:19:24 on Mon, 12 Oct 2009, Paul Corfield remarked: I don't feel I have lost out by not travelling by Ryanair. I would hope Mr O'Leary's planes are pretty new given the huge rate of expansion that he has managed with his airline I'm sure it's part of his business plan to buy new planes to give easy and consistent maintenance and operations. As opposed to BMIbaby who have a rag-bag collection of surprisingly old planes. Yes, Ryanair buys huge batches of identical planes from Boeing (but always with the threat of defecting to Airbus, as easyJet did), for knock-down prices. O'Leary proudly shows off about ordering them during recessions, when he can get the best deal. They are then kept for a relatively short time, before being sold on, with little or no depreciation (as Ryanair buys them for less than the second-hand price). |
