Ryanair Weighs Staff Pay Freezes Amid Fuel Price Surge

Ryanair might freeze worker pay because fuel costs just spiked after the US-Israel war with Iran. The airline expects high fuel prices to last well into twenty twenty-seven. That conflict is driving up their short-term fuel bill by two billion euros. Higher European airfares are coming to help cover the cost. But the airline says higher ticket prices will not be enough on their own. Temporary pay freezes are now on the table as one of the backup measures. Unite, the union representing these employees, has been contacted for comment.
