The Covid fee has been rescinded. Too much negative press maybe?

Nope... just the right amount of press. And now they get all the positive press that says their tickets are still dirt cheap. It was a calculated move... if nobody complained, they got extra revenue. If everybody complained they would roll it back and get all the free advertising. Ryanair does this all the time.

That's from the Michael O'Leary school of thought, any press is good press.
