It does not expect the change to have an effect on Ryanair&#8217;s revenue.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">O&#8217;Leary hit out at the CMA for targeting its family seating policy, which he said had been &#8220;universally embraced by consumers as the most progressive and transparent in Europe&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;Instead of promoting competitiveness and lower fares for consumers, the CMA is on a mission to force Ryanair to adopt the less transparent and less consumer-friendly family seating policy applied by most other airlines \u2013 just because it&#8217;s the industry standard,&#8221;
