Remove Fuel Surcharge

           RYANAIR CALLS ON AER LINGUS TO REMOVE FUEL SURCHARGES BUT

           AER LINGUS GOUGES PASSENGERS WITH 30% FUEL SURCHARGE HIKE

                ONLY RYANAIR GUARANTEES NO FUEL SURCHARGES EVER

Ryanair, Europe's largest low fares airline, today (Friday, 26th October 2007)
criticised Aer Lingus for raising its rip-off fuel surcharges today by 30% to
€65 per flight.

Ryanair's October 2006 offer for Aer Lingus guaranteed lower fares and the
removal of Aer Lingus' fuel surcharges. Since then Aer Lingus has done the
opposite by raising its already high fares and TWICE increasing its rip off fuel
surcharges.

Due to their hedging, Aer Lingus is buying its fuel for 2007 at nearly 20% below
the current market rate and today's 30% fuel surcharge increase is just another
Aer Lingus rip off. Only Ryanair guarantees no fuel surcharges ever. Only
Ryanair guarantees the lowest fares.

Speaking today, Ryanair's Head of Communications Peter Sherrard said:

'Ryanair is the only airline to guarantee Irish passengers no fuel surcharges,
not today, not if oil goes above $100 a barrel, not ever. Aer Lingus is gouging
passengers with unjustified 30% fuel surcharge increases when it is getting its
fuel at a 20% discount to current market prices. Ryanair again calls on Aer
lingus to end its fuel surcharge scam.

'Passengers who want to avoid paying Aer Lingus' rip off fuel surcharges, should
book today on www.ryanair.com , where Ryanair has slashed 50% off its lowest
fares, with no fuel surcharges GUARANTEED for travel in November, December and
January'.
