RyanairRyanair, Europe’s largest low fares airline today called on the ASA quango to reverse its factually false finding of yesterday that the Eurostar train service was faster and cheaper than Ryanair’s flights from London Stansted to Brussels Charleroi.

Speaking today, Ryanair’s Head of Communications, Peter Sherrard said:

“Only in the parallel universe of the ASA quango can a 1 hr 10 minute flight be declared to be longer than a 2hr 11minute train journey. Even a 4 yr old with basic maths could tell you that the flight is shorter.

Similarly, only the mathematically challenged ASA could declare that a £15 airfare is ‘not necessarily cheaper’ than a £27 train ticket”.

Ryanair has today sent a Dummies Guide to Mathematics to the ASA who clearly can’t add and they can’t subtract either. This false ruling should be reversed.
