TUI forced to stop screenscraping Ryanair website
TUI UK has agreed to stop unauthorised screenscraping of the Ryanair website, according to the airline.
In a statement today, Ryanair said the travel company had agreed to stop in settlement of legal proceedings filed against it.
It said it is now reviewing legal proceedings against Thomas Cook, which it has accused of charging a fictitious £40 “fuel surcharge†and falsely inflating airfares to consumers buying Ryanair tickets.
Ryanair’s Stephen McNamara said: “This is another victory for Ryanair and consumers.
“Ryanair will continue to fight against screenscraper sites who resell Ryanair flights with hidden charges and fictitious fuel surcharges.
“Ryanair will continue to pursue unlawful and misleading ticket-touts in the courts in the interest of our passengers.”
