LOW-COST airline Ryanair has cancelled 2,000 flights between now and the end of October to 'improve its punctuality', which had become affected by air-traffic control and airport worker strikes, as well as adverse weather conditions.
Ryanair says fewer than 80% of its planes were taking off and arriving on time, which the company considers 'unacceptable'.

As a result, around 40 to 50 flights a day to and from various different destinations have been axed between now and the end of next month.
