On Monday, the Vatican inaugurated its latest venture: a low-cost charter airline to ferry thousands of Catholic pilgrims from Italy to popular religious sites around the world.
The Vatican may still find it tough to compete with established low-cost rivals, however. Ryanair, based in Dublin, for example, already offers cheap flights to Santiago de Compostela from Rome.
“Ryanair already performs miracles that even the pope’s boss can’t rival, by delivering pilgrims to Santiago de Compostela for the heavenly price of 10 euros,” Ryanair said in a statement.
