What's the deal?
No frills (and boy does it mean no-frills) airline Ryanair has cut the cost of over two million flights to Europe, with lots at only £10 each way; most importantly this INCLUDES taxes and charges. The promotion covers flights within the next four months, though sadly excludes school breaks, but you must book before Thursday 28 June to get them.
Speedily find the specific cheap flights
In a nutshell, use the FlightChecker, a special free, non-commercial tool I had built to find budget airline special offers. It works by you entering the maximum price you’re willing to pay before taxes and charges, the airports and date range and it finds the flights with you.
For this promotion specifically, select flights UNDER £1; in fact when the results appear you want flights listed as costing £0.01. At that point visit Ryanair and check out the total price including charges.
The system is speedy, but it's not perfect as there's no hard or fast rule with this promotion; some 1p flights will come to £10, others more, but if you’re flexible with your dates and the airport you fly from, you’re likely to find a bargain within a few minutes and it's much, much quicker using the Flightchecker than not.

Ryanair charges you to check baggage in!
It’s £10 per item each way if you do it at the airport and £5 if you pre-book. So if possible take hand luggage only. Also, you’re charged handling fees for paying with a debit card (70p - except when using Electron, which is free) as well as credit cards (£2). This is per person, per flight.
