Ryanair threatens to sue EU over subsidies
10 July 2007Ryanair maintained its barrage of complaints against governments and regulators, airport authorities and competitors with a blast against the European Commission on Tuesday morning.
Europe’s largest low-cost airline said it would sue the Commission for “‘its repeated failure to take action on a number of state aid complaints involving Air France-KLM, Lufthansa, Alitalia and Olympic Airways, which were submitted to the Commission over a year ago'”.
Ryanair alleges hundreds of millions of euros of illegal state aid has subsidised these airlines and that Brussels has failed to act.
