Low-cost airline Ryanair has announced that it has submitted a request to the UK's Office of Fair Trading (OFT) to investigate Air BP's delivery cost of aviation fuel at Belfast City and Glasgow Prestwick airports.
Ryanair claims that Air BP is attempting to impose monopoly increases of more than 50% on the delivery cost of aviation fuel at the two airports.
The airline stated that it wrote to Air BP to request an explanation for the increases and Air BP responded by saying that the increases are a result of "the rising cost of oil".
