Tags :UK, Ryanair Ryanair welcomed the Competition Commission’s Report on its emerging thinking into the BAA airport monopoly, and renewed its call on the UK Government to break up the BAA monopoly. Ryanair believes that three London airports should be spun out into separate ownership and encouraged to compete against each other. A similar solution would improve competition, services and passenger charges at Glasgow and Edinburgh airports also.
According to Ryanair, the recent chaos at Heathrow’s Terminal 5, the continuing long passport and security queues at Stansted, and the 47% charge increases at Gatwick Airport clearly proves that the BAA monopoly over the London airports is bad for consumers, bad for passengers and bad for UK tourism. The carrier added that the CAA’s recent decision to approve the BAA’s double digit charge increases proves again that the CAA is incapable of regulating the BAA monopoly in the interests of users. |
