Report by John Lavabre
JUST a day after winning a high profile court case against British
Airways, low cost airline Ryanair has taken out advertisements in several
national newspapers claiming once again that BA is expensive.
The adverts say “BA are expensive – it’s official. The High
Court says so!” and claim Ryanair is “at least three times less expensive than
BA” when comparing mid-week return fares.
British Airways had sued Ryanair because it ran a series of
adverts comparing mid-week airfares between the two airlines. Mr Justice Jacob
yesterday ruled the advertisements were “honest comparative advertising.”
