BUDGET airline Ryanair was today preparing to shut its entire booking system for the weekend. Neither online nor telephone customers will be able to book flights between 10pm tonight and 11pm on Monday while the reservations network is upgraded.
The Dublin-based operator, which carries around 50 million passengers a year, said: "It has been planned for over two years because of Ryanair's continuing growth and the capacity limits of our current reservation system."
The Office of Fair Trading has called on Ryanair and other airlines to clarify fare prices on their websites. The regulator has ordered the airline to include unavoidable fixed costs, such as tax, in its ticket prices.
