Budget airline Ryanair has made a major change impacting those booking flights to take place in July and August.
This is what you need to know.
What has changed?
The airline announced on Tuesday, June 9, that it will waive its flight change fee for all customers who book to travel in July and August - allowing them to book their summer holidays with peace of mind in case their travel plans change.
Ryanair says it plans to operate over 1,000 daily flights from July 1.
What are customers allowed to change?
Those who book to fly with the airline in July and August will be able to move their flights with zero change fee to travel until December 31, 2020.
The flight date change will only apply to the route customers have already booked and trips must be completed before the 2020 year end.
Statement from Ryanair
Ryanair’s director of marketing and digital, Dara Brady said: “As popular holiday countries like Italy, Portugal and Spain are opening up for international tourists, we are ready to welcome passengers on board from July 1, when Ryanair will be operating over 1,000 daily flights across our entire network.
"We want to offer our customers as much confidence and flexibility as possible, with no flight change fee if their travel plans change”.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
