The British airline's appeal aims to alleviate pressure on airports during the peak season.
In a press release, the company reveals that the EES is not prepared for the travel period following the end of the school year, as many families plan trips throughout Europe as soon as classes end.
In this sense, and with the aim of "avoiding a travel nightmare during the school holidays," Ryanair is again asking European governments to postpone the implementation of the EES until September, when the peak of summer holiday travel has subsided. The airline also says that suspending the system could reduce inconvenience for passengers, especially those travelling with children or the elderly.
Even so, the company asks passengers for flights outside the Schengen Area to arrive at airports earlier, due to potentially longer waiting times at border control.
This is not the first time Ryanair has expressed concern to the governments of the affected countries, requesting measures to protect consumers and asking them to suspend the EES. The airline also says it has received no response from the governments.
In the same document, Ryanair's Chief Operating Officer, Neal McMahon, says the EES is not prepared for the summer and defends passengers and their families, arguing they should not be treated as guinea pigs in a system he believes is incomplete.
