RYANAIR PASSENGERS CELEBRATE TIGER’S EX ELIN NORDEGREN FOR GETTING RID OF EXCESS BAGGAGE
 
 
Ryanair, the world’s favourite airline, today (25th Aug) announced that more than 5,000 Ryanair passengers voted for Elin Nordegren to become the next SAS CEO following her success in “getting rid of excess baggage”.
 
The results of Ryanair’s online poll which asked: Who should be SAS’ new CEO? -  were:
 
  1. 37% Elin Nordegren – for getting rid of excess baggage
  2. 20% Ingvar Kamprad (Ikea Founder) – because the lowest costs always win!
  3. 15% Benny Andersson (ABBA) – “take a chance on me”
  4. 11% Kerstin Göransson (Director Stockholm airport) – from one useless organisation to another
  5. 9%   The Staff of “Astrid Lindgren Fairytale Park” – because low fares aren’t fairytales…
  6. 8% Brigitta Ohlsson (Swedish Minister for European Affairs) – to publish SAS’ first sexy cabin crew calendar
 
Ryanair’s Daniel de Carvalho said:
 
“Ryanair congratulates Elin Nordegren, our passengers’ favourite to be the next SAS CEO. Elin’s ability to get rid of unwanted baggage sets the example for SAS, which continues to lose passengers to Ryanair.
 
“Of course it doesn’t really matter who SAS’ new CEO will be, because SAS just can’t match Ryanair’s prices, our punctuality or our passenger service, which is why Scandinavian passengers and visitors will continue to switch from SAS to Ryanair.
 
“To show why Ryanair continues to grow while high fares airlines like SAS decline we are launching a  500,000 seat sale at a price of just €8 for travel on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays in late September & early October, which are available on Ryanair.com until midnight Thursday.”
