Ryanair was responsible for the highest number of complaints with around 640 cases, or 44% of the total.

Aer Lingus was next highest with more than 380 separate gripes, which made up around a quarter of all the complaints logged with the regulators.

Refunds from airlines ranged in size from €8,185 in one case involving Aer Lingus to just €6.10 in a case involving a British Airways flight.
