MILAN, May 24 (Reuters) - Italy's antitrust authority fined
Ryanair 4.2 million euros ($5.12 million) for not
refunding costumers for flights cancelled after June 2020 due to
the COVID-19 emergency, the watchdog said on Monday.
The regulator added that the Irish airline had a "seriously
unfair conduct" in cancelling planned flights, using the
pandemic as the reason, and giving passengers vouchers rather
than paying them back the price of their tickets.
In past days, the authority had also fined British carrier
EasyJet 2.8 million euros and Spanish airline Volotea
for 1.4 million euros for the same reason, it said.
