Compensation if you send in proof of the alternative flight/s you took after your Ryanair 'chancer' ticket was cancelled!

And anyone hoping for compo for hotel/lost earnings/complicated re-routing on public transport - the very best of luck with that!

Ryanair will have to compensate you if they don't inform you within two weeks of your intended flight.

Otherwise they will organise an alternative for you within the timeframes of regulation EU261. Read it and breathe.

Your travel insurance will cover you for everything else.

You do have travel insurance and a credit card don't you?

So it appears Ryanair may not be doing what the EU reg says it shall/should, what's the remedy for this?

You pay for yourself to get home on a rival airline and then take them to court. Probably a court in Dublin.

Not sure where it's from but a list of cancelled flights was posted in the Tripadvisor forum earlier tonight:

One possible solution is to try and do a deal with American Airlines who have a massive B737-800 pilot workforce.

It's from the Ryanair website, and accessed by clicking...

If that's the lot then I'm one of the lucky ones for my October flights!

Ryanair have now posted a list of the cancelled flights from 21 September to 28 October. You can find it here:

https://www.ryanair.com/ie/en/useful-info/help-centre/travel-updates/flight-cancellations7

This should remove the worry from 98% of passengers who didn't know whether their flights were going to go ahead and provides clarity for the remaining 2% who are going to be cancelled

There were so many posts regarding the charge for seating arrangements.

Makes me laugh and snort now.

I cannot believe this issue has so few posts.

NWNF solicitors must be rubbing their hands with glee.

It appears pilots don't generally like Ryanair and this may be a fundamental longer term problem.
