Ryanair offers MPs money saving advice
Welcome to my blog, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
Michael O’Leary, head of low cost airline Ryanair, wants to help the British taxpayer save money on MPs travel expenses to and from Westminster. Civic minded O’Leary has advised the Falkirk MP Eric Joyce that he could greatly reduce his travel expenses of over £30,000 by flying with Ryanair.
However it is not exactly comparing like with like as it is much further to travel to Glasgow Prestwick airport from Joyce’s constituency in Falkirk than to Edinburgh airport. I would estimate that the journey to Prestwick would take at least one hour more than to Edinburgh. The far flung locations of airports used by Ryanair is one of the potential catches of the low cost airlines. Just be sure that you always check the exact location of your arrival airport when you book you flight.
