Ryanair chief Michael O’Leary has vowed to refund passengers for flights cancelled due to the coronavirus outbreak.

In a recent statement, he has asserted that his company would refund passengers for flights cancelled due to the outbreak.

Meanwhile, in the statement, he has added that it would take at least six months to finish the process of refund.

The company has attributed the proposed delay to the issue of the shortage of staff the company currently faces because of the outbreak.

As per the statement, several refund applications are pending with the airline company.

Ryanair is also preparing to reduce its workforce considerably. Within few months, its total workforce capacity may shed at least 15 per cent of its strength.

The new policy is likely to affect as many as 3000 jobs. The cut may affect many pilots and cabin crew members.
