Re.Ryan air we have booked for 18 th dec
Edinburgh to Alicante but so far Ryan air have not taken the payment made
But we have our boarding passes
And our bank has been showing it as a pending transaction
Conclusion Ryan air are up to their usual self serving games by ensuring they do not lose out
So anyone booking with them be very very careful because they know how to keep your money once they have it
I suspect they are investigating the consequences of Flying anybody to Spain that does not have the legal requirement of NEG.PCR test 72 hrs prior
This whole scenario has massive dangers for them
Such as
1 Is your Neg Test and tester recognised by Spain
2.Exactly what is the start time to comply with 72 hrs
Is it backwards from your arrival time in Spain
What if your flight delayed in any matter and your arrival is past the 72 hrs
3.Will your carrier be held responsible by the authorities if you arrive with a invalid but NEG PCR test
The maze of legal possibilities are a legal nightmare for any Airline if they get it wrong
Spain has not thought this through properly by ensuring Airlines know full well what their legal duties are regarding this matter
And E.G. what happens if Someone arrives with a forged or non approved test/tester
Does the Airline become implicated by failing to make all requisite checks prior being allowed to board OR do they just DUMP you in Spain and leave you to take your chances with a Neg.PCR test that just might be invalid in Spanish Eyes
We now have a puzzle within a enigma
