Re: Madeira Airport FNC/LPMA - Name Chance - Cristiano Ronaldo
I'm confused. Why is there a bust of Jaime Vardy in an event honoring Cristiano Ronaldo?

Re: Which runways warrant airbus MAX braking setting

When you book a flight on the Ryanair website, does it not state the EU 261 regulation as a mandatory charge or levy?
