Ireland has done well over the last 30 years from its low tax rate and light-touch regulation to attract inward investment from multinationals such as Apple, giving them a “user-friendly” bridgehead in the EU’s Single Market, still the world’s largest by value.
“We’re not yet revising the guidance”, chief executive Michael O’Leary told reporters at a press conference to launch next year’s London summer schedule.
He added the budget airline, which launched two new routes to Strasbourg and Faro from its London terminals, will slow its United Kingdom capacity growth from 15% this year to 6% in 2017 in response to the uncertainty triggered by the pro-Brexit vote.
Ryanair made a decision to slow the rate of growth of its capacity in the United Kingdom in 2017 following the result of the Brexit vote.
That, he claimed, would resolve the runway capàcity issue for the next 50 years.
The boss of budget airline Ryanair has called on the UK’s government to end uncertainty over airport capacity by authorising new runways at Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted.
David Cameron stalled on backing the recommendation, saying the Government required more time to assess the environmental impact.
“We’ll have more capacity to grow, fares will fall and in a declining fare environment, we’ll win”, O’Leary said.
