Porter’s Five Forces - Rivalry

Most cost advantages can be copied immediately

the two major low-cost airlines have avoided direct head to head competition by choosing different routes to serve

Following Ryanair strategy will create heavy pressure on prices, margins,

Price is the main differentiating factor
