    o leary will just continue to do what he does best, fly to areas/airports that nobody has heard of and he will fill the seats, i dont suppose he cares if its 2 hour dive to the statue of liberty for british holidaymakers

    transatlantic trips which are substantially cheaper than the rest of the market will get sold, no doubt about it, and that will kill of the competition and his plan for world domination will continue then even stronger

    unknown airports, bad flying times, bad customer service when problems arise, thats what he does now and has made a fortune out of it.

    why change anything, he dosent have to make any efforts to sell seats or try and lure travellers away from BA etc, there will be countless thousands of new to the states travellers desperate to get a seat
  • if he does it will be a right laugh, imagine all us money savers with our 8 tickets going back and forth to america for no apparent reason apart from the fact it seemed like a bargain:rotfl:
    the thing is will it encourage more americans to come over here cos if so they will have to widen the seats :eek: (which can only be a bonus for us in the uk;) )

    not that i know of;) it is a fact that america has had to widen seats on public transport to accomadate the growing no of obese people so just pointing out that if our american friends are going to use the benefit of ryan air also then maybe ryan air will be made to look at the american standard of planes and actually increase the seat measurments which will benefit us english folk:rolleyes:

    There are lots of negative facts about black people but stating them is deemed to be racist?!?!?

    i dont even know how to go round that one lol, i cant say i know of any negative facts about any people based purely on their skin colour love, i think you are treading dangerously close to racism yourself here:eek: and need to calm yourself down.

    anyway back to the origional flights to the us. i would love it personally as it would open a gateway of getting cheaper flights to conecting places in the caribbean etc:T

    Go peddle your extremist liberal cynicism elsewhere.

    Nothing on this thread has been even remotely racist or insulting to anyone. The sooner people like you let go of the race card and direct your efforts to actually getting on with life and accepting alternate views to your own, the sooner the British public regardless of colour, race etc will be able to live together harmoniously.

    Try stating a "fact". Unless you can show it is "typical" of "blacks" then it is going to be racist
