It will be early 2027 before Ryanair’s more than €5m claim against the UK’s air traffic control firm NATS is heard by a London court. The trial is expected to last 10 days.
The Irish Independent first revealed last year that Ryanair was suing NATS for a 2023 computer crash that caused flight chaos and left thousands of passengers stranded abroad for days.
