    i have got a flight with this bunch in april and if i had know who we were going to be flying with when i was booking the holiday i would not have booked the holiday at all, first and last time for this lot.

    You say you've not flown with RyanAir before, so what's your issue?
    Most people at least give them a chance to !!!! things up before deciding not to fly with them again. :rolleyes:

    yeah you're right I think I'm getting a bit obsessed with moneysaving. I got flights to Malaga for £20 return during the last half term and then felt peeved when they went down to £5 return! I need a shrink!!!!!

    I doubt we'll see the 1p flights again until the low season i.e. November. But £5 or £10 is little enough to pay.

    No they are not. It was a throw away line by O'Leary on BBC Breakfast. It's not going to happen.

    Don't believe everything you read in the newspapers.

    Oh - thank goodness for that! Got to admit I just saw the headlines when paying for petrol so didn't read the full story. It got me all worried! :eek:

    I understand your reasoning but in this case the return flight is actually a £0.00 + taxes flight!

    Yes, but in reality it's almost £22. The 'taxes, fees and charges' on budget airlines are almost farcical and change almost daily: sometimes it'll be £10, sometimes (as here) more than twice that. They're really just a way of laying out the fare and I never pay the slightest attention to them, only to the 'total fare' displayed beneath it. When I say 'bargain basement' I mean nothing over a tenner, and I dare say there have been few of them on Palma routes.

    I think most people would be peeved at that (I know I would!). The solution, as I've discovered, is just not to look again. In any case, being more relaxed does wonders for one's temperament. Unless you got the 1p fares, in which case you can check as much as you want!
