Up to 1,000 Ryanair passengers a day could be without flights as a result of an aggressive new policy at the airline to combat intermediary websites offering bookings.

The low cost airline is to start cancelling bookings which have been made on so called 'screen scrapers' from Monday.

Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary said that about 1,000 bookings are made with Ryanair via these websites each day.

I'd imagine it also has a bit to do with Vladivostok Air, who claims to be operating connecting flights with Ryanair via Frankfurt-Hahn!

There's an article on it at http://www.independent.ie/business/irish/ryanair-incensed-as-russian-airline-claims-codeshare-deal-1383870.html
