European Union's New Entry/exit System As a 'Shambles' Since Its Launch, Citing Operational Delays and Confusion at Border Checkpoints

Ryanair's chief executive has described the European Union's new Entry/Exit System (EES) as a 'shambles' since its launch, citing operational delays and confusion at border checkpoints. The system, which was introduced to digitally register travelers from non-EU countries, has faced criticism from airlines and passengers alike. Ryanair's CEO said the rollout has been poorly managed, leading to long queues and disrupted travel plans across multiple European airports.
