Ryanair, the world’s favourite lowcost airline, welcomed its victory in the Commercial Court of Barcelona (in a case brought by screen-scraper website Atrapalo), which confirmed that Ryanair is entitled under the Spanish Constitution to exclusively distribute its low fares.
 
The Spanish Court also ruled that Ryanair’s comparative advertisements complied with Spanish law. These same ads were previously censored by another Spanish court, a decision which Ryanair appealed to the Constitutional Court of Spain.
 
The Court finally upheld Ryanair’s right to defend its exclusive distribution policy by publicly addressing screenscrapers in terms such as: “illegal sellers”, “parasites of the sector” and “dead wood”. The Court ruled that Ryanair is not allowed to describe screenscrapers as “bastards”.
 
This Spanish court victory is yet another milestone win for Ryanair after similar court wins against other screenscrapers in Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands and the UK.
 
Ryanair’s Stephen McNamara said:
 

“This Spanish court victory is another milestone in Ryanair’s fight against internet screenscrapers and resellers. Websites such as Atrapalo have for too long been getting away with unauthorised reselling of Ryanair’s flights, with the addition of charges which consumers don’t pay when they book directly with Ryanair.
 
Ryanair is pleased that the Spanish Court has recognised Ryanair’s constitutional right to exclusively sell its low fares on www.ryanair.com. This policy is at the core of Ryanair’s low-cost / low-fare business model and at the heart of our ongoing pro-consumer fight against the unauthorised use of Ryanair’s website.
 
Genuine price comparison only websites, who wish to present Ryanair’s low fares information to consumers, as opposed to reselling Ryanair flights with additional fees and charges, can enter into a licence agreement with Ryanair to provide price comparison only information. If Atrapalo is genuinely interested in providing an honest price comparison service, it is welcome to sign up to this licence which is subject to a charitable donation of €100.”

As one of the top travel companies in the UK, Virgin Holidays strive to deliver amazing holiday experiences to all of their customers and has a destination for everyone.

One of the Caribbean’s most beautiful destinations is Antigua with its 365 beaches.

A different beach for every day of the year? What a holiday that would be- Antigua will enchant you with its white sand beaches, swaying palm trees and turquoise waters that are protected by a wall of coral reef where you can enjoy snorkeling and scuba-diving.

Take a jeep tour with one of the many tour operators and see Antigua close up as you explore the countryside. You will pass banana trees, hibiscus flowers and many fruit stands.

Here you can purchase fresh melon, papaya, or try raw sugar cane. Stop at Stingray City where you have the chance to pet stingrays. After that you can snorkel on the nearby reef and swim with the colourful tropical fish.

For the snow-lovers there is nothing more exhilarating than a ski holiday in Vail, Colorado.

Vail Mountain, the largest in the United States, has 5,289 acres and 34 lifts. There are marked trails for all levels of skiing. A good part of the front of Vail Mountain is for intermediate skiers, advanced skiers can find adventure runs in the area known as the Blue Sky Basin.

As a bonus your lift ticket also allows you to go to Beaver Creek in nearby Breckenridge.

After a day of skiing, head on over to the village in Vail for your choice of restaurants and bars where you can listen to live music or sit out on a deck and watch the last of the evening skiers.

Egypt is the place for your 2010 holiday.

If the thought of ancient treasures, old civilizations has you shivering in anticipation of exotic sights, smells and tastes then wake up to the early call of the muezzin and stop at a café for an early breakfast of tea or coffee with t’aamiyya.

Then start your day with the pyramids at Giza with its  largest, and most famous Pyramid of Khufu; this pyramid is the last of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World that still exists.

A short distance away is the Great Sphinx. It was sculpted out of sandstone and is 200 feet long by 65 feet tall. It faces the rising sun and has the first sun temple ever built in front of it.

With so many great places to see the hardest part will be choosing the right place for you. So start thinking about what you want to do on your 2010 holiday and make your plans.
