The idea that Ryanair don't take safety seriously isn't an opinion - it's simply wrong. Their record and policies on safety are a matter of record.

> If you just ignore the "significantly" bit, sure.

Okay, it's also ridiculous to state that a crash wouldn't significantly impact their business.

Your comments on this are so outlandish that I wonder if they're made in good faith?

I could suggest you're being paid to defend Ryanair online, but I can't imagine Ryanair paying someone to do that. They don't care about their reputation enough. Kind of like how they aren't too bothered about how it looks in the media when their planes catch fire or have to be intercepted by fighter jets.

And we could suggest you’re being paid to spread FUD about Ryanair. I hate flying with them as much as the next guy, but saying they don’t care about safety is demonstrably wrong, their safety record is one of the best around. Just because it looks like they furnished the interior at the local Lidl doesn’t mean they don’t have strict maintenance and operating procedures.
