Plane sailing as peace breaks out in travel dispute

RYANAIR and Manchester travel agent On The Beach have confirmed a package holiday deal that could offer local customers more holiday options - and make their journeys easier.

Ryanair's CEO Eddie Wilson came to the travel company's offices near Piccadilly last week to announce the lowcost airline's flights are now on offer as part of On The Beach's package deals.

The Irish airline had been locked in a furious row with On The Beach over whether or not it could sell Ryanair flights. Ryanair has accused online travel agents of being 'pirates' for selling flights unofficially, meaning there could be confusion over contact details and refunds when there were delays or cancellations.

The companies even went to court, with OTB winning a £2m victory in December.
