Michael O’Leary, the CEO of the Irish budget airline, did not take his annual bonus for 2017-2018 due to last year's scheduling crisis, which saw 20,000 flights cancelled. However, according to Ryanair’s annual report, O’Learly still received a remuneration package of €2.3m ($2.69m) for that period. O’Leary’s bonus for the previous financial year was €950,000. The cancellation crisis led to the company striking agreements with a number of trade unions. In July, Ryanair saw strike action by cabin crew in Belgium, Italy, Portugal and Spain. Pilots in Germany have also voted to strike.
