RYANAIR WELCOMES SALE OF EDINBURGH AIRPORT AND CALLS FOR THE URGENT SALE OF STANSTED
Ryanair's Stephen McNamara said:
"Ryanair welcomes the sale of Edinburgh Airport, which will free it from the dead hand of the high cost BAA monopoly. Ryanair looks forward to working with the new owners of Edinburgh to lower costs and grow traffic and routes.
The sale of Edinburgh now clears the way for the final sale of Stansted, which the BAA monopoly has been delaying since the Competition Commission first recommended the sale in 2006. While the BAA has been delaying the sale of Stansted they have doubled Stansted's charges and driven its traffic down from 24m passengers to less than 18m passengers last year."
