Ryanair faces fresh strikes in Germany

Ryanair is facing co-ordinated strike action by pilots and cabin crew based in Germany tomorrow in a dispute over pay and conditions.
The Vereinigung Cockpit pilot union says its members will walk out from 03:01 on 12 September, returning at 02:59 on 13 September. It says all flights departing from Germany within this timespan will be affected. Cabin crew union Verdi says its members will also down tools at the same time.
Vereinigung Cockpit says it has been demanding improved pay and working conditions for its members for "many months" but Ryanair has not issued an improved offer.
Ingolf Schumacher, head of industrial relations at the union, says that despite the "strong signal" of strike action conducted by its members on 10 August, negotiations with the carrier have come to a standstill.
"We are ultimately expecting solutions," he states, adding that the union has invited Ryanair management to attend arbitration talks in September.
It says it has rejected an attempt by Ryanair to appoint an Irish mediator, who, the union argues, "could not possibly have enough knowledge of German law and therefore already is not qualified to act as an arbitrator in this case".
It further contends that Ryanair's success in settling a dispute with its pilots employed in Ireland cannot be used as a blueprint for negotiations with flightcrew based in Germany.
Verdi says a second round of negotiations with Ryanair on 5 September proved "unsuccessful" leading it to call for industrial action to "put pressure on employers".
The union says members are not due for pay rises between 2018 and 2021 and that flight attendants' salaries are "insufficient" to ensure a "decent" standard of living.
Ryanair says: "Since we have already offered local contracts and improved pay there is no justification for further disruption, and we are calling on our German pilots to work this Wednesday."

Ryanair boss says airline will not bow to strikes

Michael O’Leary admits action has hit customer confidence in European carrier

Ryanair chief executive Michael O’Leary reacted to the latest walkout by its German pilots on Wednesday by saying the airline was willing to put up with industrial action if it meant defending its cost base and ability to offer low fares.
At a press conference in London, he conceded that a series of strikes at the European carrier had “damaged customer confidence” and said he had acquired new a “humility” given recent problems.

He added: “We are not easyJet, we will not roll over every time we are threatened with a strike.

Mr O’Leary also attacked the British government’s lack of progress on post-Brexit aviation arrangements, saying he had not spoken to transport secretary Chris Grayling in almost a year.
There is every reason to believe the UK government would say in desperation ‘everyone is free to land here’, but there is no indication the reverse is true,” he said.

Mr O’Leary revealed that the German pilots’ union had proposed Gerhard Schroeder as arbitrator in their dispute, but Ryanair had rejected the country’s former chancellor saying he would take too long to get up to speed with the issues. Ryanair cancelled 150 German flights out of 400 on Wednesday.
In the wake of the British Airways data hack, where criminals stole the personal and credit card details of 380,000 customers, Mr O’Leary said he was in no position to give advice to BA, given Ryanair’s troubles and the “enormous challenges around data protection” all large companies face.

But he did take a swipe at BA, saying “we haven’t subcontracted out a lot of our IT and digital development”, which could make Ryanair’s website safer. BA has denied that outsourcing had anything to do with the hack.

Mr O’Leary’s remarks came after the airline was hit by a summer of strikes involving two days from Portuguese, Belgian and Spanish cabin crew unions and a walkout by pilots in five countries on August 10, forcing the airline to cancel 400 flights, or 15 per cent of its daily total.
The unions have a list of complaints, underpinned by Ryanair’s refusal to hire staff under local laws, with attendant rights and benefits; all staff are employed under Irish law.
Mr O’Leary said that they were “happy” to introduce local contracts but Irish tax law prevented this under certain circumstances. He said Ryanair would “certainly look at setting up” registration for its aircraft outside Ireland if the government did not change the law.
Last week, seven unions representing cabin crew, pilots and ground-handling staff from Italy, Portugal, Belgium, Spain and the Netherlands said they would announce a concerted strike for the end of this month.
In a letter, the combined unions demanded shareholders vote out Ryanair’s current board at the company’s annual meeting on September 20 as it was “incapable of having meaningful talks with the unions”.

Nuova giornata nera in vista per i passeggeri Ryanair di mezza Europa. La compagnia aerea low cost ha annunciato la cancellazione di 190 dei 2400 voli previsti per venerdì 28 settembre a causa dello sciopero indetto dal personale di volo in Italia, Belgio, Olanda, Spagna e Portogallo. Secondo la società saranno circa 30mila i passeggeri coinvolti dai disagi per una mobilitazione definita dalla compagnia "non necessaria".

Le cancellazioni riguarderanno nel complesso l'8% dei voli previsti per la giornata di venerdì prossimo. "Oltre il 90% dei 2.400 voli e dei 450.000 clienti di Ryanair - si legge nel comunicato della low cost - non verranno toccati da questi scioperi non necessari".

"Ci scusiamo sinceramente con i clienti interessati da questi inutili scioperi di venerdì, che abbiamo fatto del nostro meglio per evitare, dato che abbiamo già offerto questi accordi di riconoscimento sindacale, contratti collettivi di lavoro e un passaggio a contratti/leggi locali nel 2019", ha dichiarato Kelly Jacobs, chief marketing officier di Ryanair. "Questi ripetuti scioperi inutili - ha aggiunto - stanno danneggiando gli affari di Ryanair e la fiducia dei nostri clienti in un momento in cui i prezzi del petrolio stanno aumentando fortemente e, se continuano, è inevitabile che dovremo guardare nuovamente alla nostra capacità di crescita quest'inverno e nell'estate 2019. Speriamo questi sindacati vedranno il buon senso e collaboreranno con noi per finalizzare gli accordi a beneficio dei nostri piloti e dell'equipaggio di cabina nelle prossime settimane senza interrompere ulteriormente i nostri clienti o i nostri voli".

Lo sciopero in Italia
Nel frattempo, le segreterie nazionali di Filt Cgil, Uiltrasporti e Ugl Trasporto Aereo hanno chiesto al Ministro del Lavoro Luigi Di Maio "un incontro urgente sulla situazione di Ryanair per individuare le misure necessarie a ricondurre i comportamenti al rispetto delle norme sul lavoro, dei diritti costituzionali dei lavoratori e dei cittadini e delle sentenze della magistratura.

Ryanair porta a conoscenza delle sentenze spagnole e chiede perché Lufthansa e British airways non hanno rimborsato i clienti per le agitazioni del personale






Il tribunale commerciale di Barcellona conferma con una sentenza che la compensazione Eu261 non è dovuta ai clienti i cui voli sono stati cancellati a causa di un’azione di sciopero interna, poiché tali scioperi vanno oltre il controllo della compagnia aerea.

Si tratta della nona sentenza spagnola che chiarisce questa norma, con decisioni analoghe deliberate dai Tribunali di Badajoz, Ourense e Pontevedra.

Lo fa sapere Ryanair sottolineando il fatto di avere “riprotetto o rimborsato tutti i clienti coinvolti nel piccolo numero di cancellazioni dovute agli scioperi e ha fornito totale assistenza ai clienti ove necessaria, offrendo pernottamenti, pasti e riprotezione”.

Ciò premesso, in una nota diffusa oggi, il chief operating marketing del vettore, Kenny Jacobs, chiede perché “negli ultimi anni, durante i quali ci sono stati oltre 15 giorni di scioperi di piloti e personale di bordo in Germania, a Lufthansa non è stato richiesto di pagare la compensazione Eu261 – osserva -. Allo stesso modo, la Civil aviation authority britannica dovrebbe spiegare perché non é stata intrapresa nessuna azione in merito alla Eu261 contro British Airways in occasione degli scioperi del personale di bordo dello scorso anno”.

Ryanair prepares for change of chairman


High up Ryanair’s list of problems is investor unhappiness with chairman David Bonderman, the 75-year-old who is also the billionaire founder of Texas Pacific Group, the US private equity firm.
Almost 30 per cent of shares were voted against his re-election at the airline’s recent annual meeting, as investors protested that Mr Bonderman’s 22-year tenure meant he could not be an independent check on chief executive Michael O’Leary.
The vote contradicted the prediction of Mr O’Leary, who at a press conference in September had expected a maximum rebellion of 20 per cent.
Mr O’Leary said he hoped Mr Bonderman would be re-elected in 2019, but added: “There is a succession plan in place and that will be revealed in the next year or two . . . There’s no fixed date, there’s no fixed names.”
Two senior figures with knowledge of Ryanair’s internal affairs said the carrier was preparing for the “inevitability” of “Bondo”, as the chairman is known in the boardroom, standing down.
One of those figures said: “It wouldn’t have been lost on Bonderman or anybody that the vote went that way . . . We’d prefer that it was managed, rather than he was pushed.” Both individuals said the airline had yet to initiate a formal succession process.
Whoever replaces the private equity boss, it will not be Mr O’Leary himself, who has claimed he has “no desire” to do it: “I’m not old enough, calm enough or wise enough to be chairman of Ryanair.”

Sono più di 3 i voli dirottati su AGP. Sono gli aa/vv di diversi voli.
Spero vivamente che l’ente aviazione portoghese prenda i dovuti provvedimenti nei confronti di Ryanair. Questa foto non è accettabile..

6 AV sul 737 Ryan? o c'erano due supernumeraries in addestramento oppure non torna
E' pop art.
Ironia a parte, da fonti interne c'erano diversi equipaggi che hanno dirottato a Malaga per cattivo tempo sul Portogallo e hanno passato la notte in crew room in quanto, apparentemente, non vi erano alberghi disponibili. La cosa è stata confermata in un tweet del COO.

Quelli trasportano 130 milioni e rotti di passeggeri all'anno, si gireranno tutti dall'altra parte al grido di "è il mercato, bellezza".

yanair has apologised to staff after claims they were forced to sleep overnight in a crew room after being stranded at Malaga Airport.

Four Ryanair crews, 24 people in total, spent the night in the room as it was the only one available because of storms in Portugal.

A photograph purporting to show six airline staff sleeping on the floor of the crew room was posted on the Facebook page Ryanair Must Change. The incident occurred on Saturday as Storm Leslie hit Portugal meaning that many flights had to be diverted to Spain.

The photograph was shared on Twitter by former Ryanair pilot Jim Atkinson who tweeted: “This is a Ryanair 737 crew based in Portugal, stranded in Malaga, Spain a couple of nights ago due to storms. They are sleeping on the floor of the Ryanair crew room. RYR is earning €1.25 billion this year but will not put stranded crews in a hotel for the night. @peterbellew?”

Peter Bellew is Ryanair’s chief operations officer. He responded: “Unfortunately all hotels were completely booked out in Malaga. The storm created huge damage in Portugal. Later after this the crew moved to VIP lounge. Apologies to the crew we could not find accommodation.”

Esatto: nella Costa del Sol non trovare sufficienti camere per riproteggere 2/3 mila pax dirottati e i oloro crew Credo sia una scusa bella e buona.
E se il coordinamento operativo di RYR era incasinato, il Comandante avrebbe dovuto prendersi cura del suo equipaggio e trovare una suitable accomodation asap, anche a costo di mettere mano al suo portafoglio.

Esattamente, con la consapevolezza però che nulla gli sarebbe mai stato rimborsato, quindi servivano anche le cosiddette "pelotas".

In un caso del genere, viste le norme sul riposo sui crew le autorità possono intervenire e multare severamente FR?

Dipende da come hanno poi effettivamente inquadrato quel periodo trascorso in crewroom o VIP lounghe che sia, se come Duty time o Rest time. Nel primo caso non ci sono palesi violazioni in quanto può essere, ad esempio, assimilato ad un must-go post PSV (con una buona dose di fantasia, ma d'altronde le FTL sono state scritte da Harry Potter) e quindi l'importante è che il successivo periodo di riposo sia uguale o superiore a tutto il duty time trascorso. Nel secondo caso è una palese violazione.
