Ireland's "low-cost" airlines are at it again, this time Ryanair --
[ireland.com] Ryanair have tonight issued a late statement to inform Liverpool fans travelling to Athens for tomorrow night's Champions League final that the airline have been forced to bring forward the departure time for tomorrow morning's scheduled flight from Dublin.
Passengers were advised: "Flight FR 5902 will now depart Dublin three hours and 20minutes earlier than scheduled at 6.10am tomorrow morning (Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007) and arrive at 12.10pm."
The flight will also have no desk check-in or checked baggage service. On the other hand, fans from Liverpool in Athens will have an unscheduled extra few hours on Thursday morning in Athens to work off the excesses of the night before --
Passengers are advised that flight FR6133 will now depart Athens on Thursday 24th of May at the later time of 10.00hrs and arrive in Liverpool at 12.30hrs.
But the made-for-media horror story is going to be for the 1st flight, the die-hard Irish fan who shows up at the scheduled time for the outbound flight to discover it left 3 hours ago. There is currently no advisory for this change, which seems to have come after many fans will already have gone to bed, on the Ryanair website. In both cases they are blaming Athens airport for the changes.
