Ryanair Holdings Plc (LON: RYA) is under lens over its Easter ads dubbed as “jab and go”, which allegedly urges customers to book Easter flights.

The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) said it has received around 1,600 complaints about the ad so far.

The complainants highlighted that the ads are misleading as it claims that the vaccine rollout will be successful by March and the travel restrictions will be lifted by then.

The ad was televised and also appeared on Europe’s biggest discounter’s website.

The budget airline has offered one million seats from £19.99, asking travellers to book seat for summer as the vaccines are coming.

Though, the airline has defended the ad stating that they are a celebration of vaccine and clarified that it hopes that mass vaccinations will help in returning to a sense of 'normality' and would help everyone do a summer holiday.

It’s worth mentioning here that the airlines’ December traffic was down by 83 per cent to 1.9 million guests. Ryanair Holdings Plc has reduced its schedule by two-thirds.

On 6 January 2021, the stocks of the Marks and Spencer Group Plc (LON:RYA) traded higher by 2.13% from its previous closing, hovering at around EUR 15.36 at 10:37 AM GMT+1.
