Ryanair says we lose less bags……………..

Saturday, 22 Aug, 2007 0

Ryanair is calling for insurance companies to offer discounts to customers who fly with airlines that are statistically less likely to lose luggage.

The low-cost carrier, which statistics show has recently lowered the number of bags it loses, has written to the Association of British Insurers to ask it to endorse the proposal. 

Recent statistics show Ryanair has slightly lowered the number of bags lost, down from 0.5 per 1,000 in the first half of 2006 to 0.4 per 1,000 in the same period this year.

By contrast, British Airways’ figures have increased from 21 lost bags per thousand last year to 28 per thousand this year.

A Ryanair spokesman said: “For years, the car insurance industry has provided discounts for low-risk categories in a range of areas.” 

“The time has now come for passengers flying with airlines that deliver the best customer service to enjoy the same discounts.”
