Ryanair Update on Web System Changeover
Ryanair, today (Tuesday, 26th February 2008) continued to make significant progress on eliminating many of the software glitches involved in bedding down its new ‘New Skies’ reservations system, which is the background booking engine of http://www.ryanair.com. This process has given rise to some hours today when record bookings of over 20,000 per hour were taken, but also some hours when the internet access on http://www.ryanair.com was temporarily reduced resulting in less than 5,000 bookings being made.
Ryanair and its software supplier are continuing to work intensively to eliminate these bedding down issues, and we expect to continue to deliver improved internet access and faster booking speeds this evening and tomorrow.
The principal difficulty the website is encountering is the enormous surge of passengers a) who were unable to make bookings over the weekend and b) who are keen to get one of Ryanair’s 1 million x 1 penny (tax inclusive) seats, which are available for travel on Tuesdays and Wednesdays in April, May and June.
Ryanair apologises to any passengers who have suffered inconvenience in attempting to access Ryanair.com over the last 24 hours, but wishes to assure all passengers that once this cut-over process has been completed this week, they can look forward to faster booking times, and Europe’s guaranteed lowest airfares on http://www.ryanair.com.
Speaking today, Ryanair’s Head of Communications, Peter Sherrard said:
“We are continuing to make significant progress with the cut over to the New Skies system. However, we expect further bedding down problems over the next day or two and we ask all passengers to be patient with us, as we complete the largest ever software changeover undertaken by any airline, anywhere in the world.”

Booking Engine Changeover Update - Thursday 28th Feb 10.00hrs
Ryanair this morning reported significant improvement in the performance of its new http://www.ryanair.com booking engine. The delays which some passengers experienced on Monday and Tuesday have largely been eliminated and Ryanair is continuing to take record bookings for its 1p tax inclusive seat sale.
This improved performance has delivered:
Over 30,000 bookings per hour at peak periods yesterday
All fares displayed inclusive of taxes and charges
Faster booking speeds for customers
Ryanair and its software supplier will continue to fine tune the system to deliver faster booking times. Notwithstanding occasional delays, we expect the new booking engine to be running to its full and improved capacity by the end of this week. We thank passengers for their patience during this system changeover and are happy to now be delivering improved speed and service for customers booking Europe's guaranteed lowest fares.

Re: Ryanair Update on Web System Changeover
Was ich bei der neuen Homepage vermisse, ist die Rubrik "Niedrigste Flugpreise suchen"! Das scheint ja so gewollt zu sein. Jetzt wird es doch ein wenig mühevoller.

Re: Ryanair Update on Web System Changeover
Naja, keine Ahung ob das so gewollt war, immerhin hat man ja nun diese leider deutlich unpraktischere Kalenderansicht eingebaut. Hierzu unter "Jetzt buchen" einfach das Häckchen bei "Sind meine Reisedaten flexibel" setzen.
Oh, ich sehe gerade, offenbar arbeitet man hier weiter dran, inzwischen ist sie wenigstens etwas übersichtlicher geworden.

Re: Ryanair Update on Web System Changeover
Keine Ursache, das hat Ryanair ja auch gut versteckt. 
Und zudem muss man sich in dieser Übersicht auch nach Wochen noch durch französische geschriebene Flugziele quälen. Da soll nochmal einer sagen, dass Ryanair nicht international ist. Ein Niederländer bucht einen Flug ab Weeze nach London, gebucht in Irland, beim Flug nette osteuropäischen Flugbegleitern und die Reisezielauswahl erfolgt mit "Londres" in französischer Sprache. Habe ich was vergessen?

Re: Ryanair Update on Web System Changeover
Jetzt ist auch das Häkchen "Meine Reisedaten sind flexibel " nicht mehr anzuklicken. Oder habe ich schon wieder was übersehen?
