Due to Ryanair not running the Edinburgh to Beziers flight we had to fly Edinburgh to Bristol and take the Bristol To Beziers Flight. When we arrived in Bristol we found Ryanair had cancelled the Beziers Flight, the excuse being French airspace was closed due to strike action. Since proven to be incorrect. Our only option was to cancel my business/holiday and return to Edinburgh. My wife was starting to have problems with stress. Ryanair eventually agreed to pay for a return to Edinburgh then decided they didn't want to pay even though under CAA and EC rules they are liable for the costs of flights from and to Edinburgh that we have lost as well.
