I flew from London to Madrid with Ryanair on a ticket that started at £35 ($43.70). It got me from A to B unscathed, but I'd rather fly with another budget airline for the same price. AdvertisementWhen it comes to airlines, my friends often sing the praises of Ryanair — praising its cheap ticket prices, whether it be city breaks or visiting home. Coupled with my train journey to the airport, what started as a £35 ticket ended up costing £90.

London CNN —Tim Clark, the president of Emirates, has joined a chorus of airline executives in warning that Boeing is running out of time to restore its reputation following a series of safety and manufacturing blunders. I’m sure Dave Calhoun and Stan Deal are on that,” he added, referring to Boeing’s CEO and head of commercial airplanes respectively. Clark isn’t the first airline boss to criticize Boeing since part of the fuselage of a 737 Max 9 blew out mid-flight in early January. Clark said that for the first time Emirates would send its own engineers to observe the production process of the 777 at Boeing and its supplier Spirit AeroSystems. “The fact that we’re having to do that is testament to what has happened,” he told the Financial Times.

New York CNN —Boeing CEO David Calhoun missed out on a $7 million bonus last year, but still got a raise. Boeing’s proxy filing Friday disclosed that when Calhoun started as CEO of Boeing in January of 2020, the board gave him a $7 million bonus package if he completed a list of goals by the end of 2023. Because of that, the company’s filing said Calhoun will not get the $7 million. And in February the board awarded Calhoun 25,000 shares of Boeing stock as a retention bonus. In May last year, Michael O’Leary, CEO of Ryanair — Europe’s largest discount carrier, which has ordered nearly 400 jets from Boeing since 2010 — let loose a profanity-laced criticism of Boeing management.
