Airline approves mobile phone use

Whilst Ryanair still allow you to check in. Do you think it might be an idea if the staff could ask you if you want to sit in a mobile or non mobile section.

Have you ever flown Ryanair? Boarding is chaos enough as it is, what with all the people running to be first on board and the rest of us standing back watching incredulously and all, without an extra chant of 'phone users to the front, quiet zone at the back' to make things worse. A nice idea, but not going to happen.

At the end of the day i will continue to fly airlines that do not permit mobile phones and avoid those that do.

In a few years all airlines will permit usage of mobiles while flying.:eek:

You may be right. But lets hope it is priced as such that all the inconsiderate noisy chavs are unable to call their friends and explain loudly how they just saw an iceberg - no a cloud - no its an iceberg.

That's wishful thinking. Most of the chavs with money has no money saving skills whatsoever.(Why are they always broke?) After all ,how did they get the money in the first place? Very easily I suspect, either through criminal means or from handouts from the State. Most of us hard working MSE'ers who made our money through honest means and pay taxes, are considerate and ARE money saving experts. I never bought anything ever on a RA or EJ flight.
Easy come, easy go!

Jeez if you have to make a call or a text message on a 2-3 hour flight then should you be travelling if you are that busy

Ryanair are used by business people an awful lot..they keep the routes running. Perhaps they'd expect you to travel on a holiday charter?

Still I expect the 1p each way flight I have booked will compensate for that distraction.

After you've paid the check-in surcharge, baggage surcharge, go-to-the-front-of-the-queue surcharge, don't-sit-next-to-a-mobile-user surcharge, the change-the-name-on-the ticket-surcharge, the-change-the-date surcharge... and of course the credit card surcharge on all the other surcharges ?

You wouldn't get me to fly on R*****r if they operated the last flight out of UK after Gordon Brown gets re-elected..................................... hang on, perhaps that is a bit hasty !

...otherwise known as 'I'm-too-stupid-to-know-how-to-avoid-unnecessary-fees' surcharges. Seriously, I've flown several times on Ryanair having paid nothing more than a penny. No baggage, no elbowing my way to the front (even when priority was free...), no making stupid mistakes typing in my name. The first few times they ran the offer they didn't even charge for card use; when they started doing that I got an Electron card. Simple really. And you fee-paying suckers subsidised my travel, and for that I'm eternally grateful.
