Need a flight to Europe? Ryanair's £10 flight sale: all destinations included!

What's the deal?

No frills (and I mean no frills) budget airline Ryanair is selling seats to all of its destinations to Europe for as little as £10 each way; most importantly this INCLUDES taxes and charges, so a tenner is all you pay. Flights must be taken between 5 Nov '07 and 7 Feb '08 (excluding 18 Dec to 8 Jan and school holidays) and you must book before Thurs 19 July 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 for you.

For this promotion specifically, select flights UNDER £1; in fact when the results appear you'll only 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 cost 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.

    Back to the Marrakech question, I want to go there in January with my wife and sure enough I can find the £0.01 flights - great I think.

    I get to the check out and expect it to be £10 each each way ie £40 in total for both of us but no, £143 in total: going out: £80 government tax, £22.40 'PSC', £7.50 ins and wchr and also the ins on the way back - I'm presuming there's no way round this?

    I just wish I hadn't got my wife all excited now.

    Thanks, Richard

    I'm also trying to find a Marrakech flight but am coming up with huge taxes. Are there any flights that don't have the huge government tax?

    Flight Luton to Marrakech on Mon 12th Nov is £110 taxes plus the 2p flights for 2 adults.
    Return to Luton on Wed 21st Nov comes up as £33.88 plus 2p again.


    Total Cost of Flight
    excluding handling fee (if applicable)
    143.92 GBP
    Which doesn't look as inviting as 1p flights!! :o

    I read today that getting through customs at Marrakesh takes two hours one way and two and a half the other so it's put me right off.
