Ryanair Sun (Poland) is being probed by Polish authorities over labour issues, and a law to allow contractors to join unions — and potentially push for concessions granted in Western Europe — is due to enter force there in January 2019.

UK Civil Aviation Authority begins enforcement action against Ryanair

2018-12-05 The UK Civil Aviation Authority has today started enforcement action against Ryanair, following the airline's decision that financial compensation is not payable under European Commission Regulation 2612004 for flight disruption resulting from industrial action by the airline's staff this summer.

The UK Civil Aviation Authority has today started enforcement action against Ryanair, following the airline's decision that financial compensation is not payable under European Commission Regulation 261/2004 for flight disruption resulting from industrial action by the airline's staff this summer.

Ryanair passengers have made claims for compensation directly to the airline, but these have been rejected. Passengers have then been able to escalate their complaints to AviationADR, a body approved by the Civil Aviation Authority, to provide alternative dispute resolution for passenger complaints.

Ryanair has now informed the Civil Aviation Authority that it has terminated its agreement with AviationADR. As the Civil Aviation Authority said at the time of the industrial action, in its view, the strikes were not “extraordinary circumstances” and were not exempt, meaning consumers should be compensated in accordance with Regulation EC261/2004.

As a result of Ryanair's action, passengers with an existing claim will now have to await the outcome of the Civil Aviation Authority's enforcement action.

Passengers with outstanding strike-related compensation claims
Passengers who have made strike-related compensation claims via AviationADR are advised that these claims are currently on hold and will have to await the outcome of the Civil Aviation Authority's enforcement action.

Passengers with new claims:
Passengers with new claims who are not satisfied with the outcome or who have not received a reply from the airline within eight weeks, should contact the Civil Aviation Authority's Passenger Advice and Complaints Team (PACT):

Indeed, Ryanair put in a formal request to sack its entire workforce in the Netherlands because of the company’s poor economic performance, a Dutch pilots union said.

In other news, Ryanair will add new services to Podgorica and Zadar in 2019, as the carrier continues to expand in the former Yugoslavia.
