Ryanair is taking legal action against air traffic control body Nats after severe disruption last summer affected over 700,000 passengers. The incident occurred on August 28, 2022, when a technical glitch at Nats grounded flights at UK airports. An inquiry into the incident revealed a lack of multi-agency preparation for such a large-scale disruption. Ryanair CEO Michael O’Leary stated that the airline aims to recover compensation costs from Nats, criticizing the organization’s performance and calling for the resignation of its chief executive. Nats has acknowledged receiving legal proceedings over the Ryanair claim. Additionally, aviation organizations will conduct an industry-wide rehearsal of major flight disruption scenarios in response to the August incident.
