Ryanair to cut up to 3000 jobs

The announcement of job losses comes as the airline says it doesn't expect passenger demand to fully recover for 2 years. The company is bracing for a 99% drop in passenger numbers in this quarter, and assumes its will only carry half the number envisaged in the next. Along with the job cuts from July 2020, Ryanair is warning that staff may face pay cuts, unpaid leave and a number of European bases closing for now. (Image: Michael O'Leary. Credit: Getty Images)
