O’Leary: Ryanair Labs will ultimately dwarf Ryanair
Ryanair’s airline operation will ultimately be just a small segment of a broader Amazon of travel-type business, according to CE Michael O’Leary. “In 10 years’ time, we will become a big data platform with an airline attached. Ryanair, the airline, will be an ancillary business. The airline will be like a tick. The potential of this thing is enormous,” he said. Ryanair has done a heavy digital push under its Always Getting Better program, creating Ryanair Labs IT innovation centres in Dublin, Ireland and Wroclaw, Poland. In May, it announced the opening of a third lab in Madrid, Spain. “We are now looking for a fourth [Labs location],” O’Leary said. “Customers who are not customers of the airline will be customers of Ryanair Labs,” O’Leary said. <br/>
