New Airport Security Procedures
RyanAir of England is decidedly non-plussed by the UK security theater, and is threatening to sue. (Via Boingboing [link to http://www.boingboing.net/2006/08/18/ryanair_to_uk_govt_e.html no longer works].)
Remember, emptying the planes not only hurts the airlines, but when it pushes people to drive instead of fly, it kills people. Not in as newsworthy a fashion, but more people die driving than flying.
Is that Churchill in the background (of the picture of the RyanAir CEO at the top of the article)?
*cough* Note to self: ideally, read article before commenting.
Yes–read the article, visit Ryanair’s home page (http://www.ryanair.com/site/EN/) for details
Actually, Ryanair is an Irish airline. They just do a lot more business in the UK.
