The CEO of Ryanair, Michael O’Leary, was pied in the face during a Thursday visit to Brussels in a stunt by climate activists.
O’Leary was outside the European Commission preparing to deliver a petition calling for “overflights” to be protected during air traffic control strikes when he was hit with cream pies by two climate campaigners.
The airline boss has urged European leaders to allow flights traveling through French airspace — but not taking off or landing on French soil — to be exempt from restrictions imposed following a strike by air traffic controllers in that country.
Ryanair says it has so far collected 1.8 million signatures on its online petition from members of the public.
The incident was captured on video, and the activists can be heard shouting: “Welcome in Belgium. Stop the pollution of the f**king planes.”
After being pied, the head of Europe’s largest airline carried on talking to the media outside the EU building, saying, “We’re here to discuss the petition. I love cream cakes. They’re my favorite.”
He then licked some of the cream off his hands and added, “It’s delicious cake.”
The low-cost airline also commented on the stunt: “Shame it was soy-based cream, definitely not as tasty as the real stuff,” the company said on the social media platform “X,” formerly known as Twitter.
Ryanair (RYAAY) has benefited from the post-pandemic boom in travel.
The company reported profit of €663 million ($735 million) for the three months ending in June — nearly four times higher than in the same period last year, when bookings were badly affected by Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

兩位氣候英雄！
向一向堅決反對任何限制航空政策的ryanair CEO示威！
仲要係荳奶！更環保！
又唔見easyjet / wizzair咁樣極力反對！
反而wizzair，提出5小時內禁止商務位，只准經濟位，更有建設性
(不過我覺得5小時太長。2小時內就啱)

如果係環保因素, 係咪需要研發電動客機呢 [/quote]
電池飛機，太重，唔實際
所以空巴將於2035推出氫能飛機
但仲有12年。遠遠無法達至歐盟2030大量減排至1990年45%或以下水平的目標
2030 Climate Target Plan
With the 2030 Climate Target Plan, the Commission proposes to raise the EU's ambition on reducing greenhouse gas emissions to at least 55% below 1990 levels by 2030.

所以成個歐盟，尤其法國，咁著緊開鐵減飛機！
如果唔係，連只到1990年水平都冇可能！更加唔好話再減55%！
