This thread is to discuss the news item: Ryanair costs set to soar

Definition of 'to soar': to rise or increase dramatically.

The cost of Ryanair flights is set to rise by £5 per person, per flight from October.

Soaring, or sensationalist journalism? :rolleyes:

Online check-in time is limited to between 15 days and four hours before each flight's departure

Limited? Most airlines allow online check in twenty four hours before the flight, the inference that Ryanair limit online check in is completely unjustified.

Other costs are increasing, but these are the costs that most savvy travellers are able to avoid. As ever with Ryanair, play their game and their prices are very competitive.

An ill thought, biased article.

The only potential problem with only having online checkin is that when you are on holiday you will probably need to checkin you return leg from some internet cafe and be able to print your boadring pass.

You can print out your boarding card 14 days before travelling so this means that for most journeys you can print your both boarding cards at the same time.

What about those without a printer?

Go to your local library?

Ask a friend to print it for you?

I see they will have "drop desks" for those with checked baggage. Given their lack of regard for customer satisfaction , surely they mean "drop dead" desks.

I have a job thanks, we dont use computers/printers in an afterschool club and the IT room is locked up. Don't think I would have thought of that otherwise!

My mother in law asks me to book flights and I get my DH to print them off at work, but if he is abroad then I cant do that.
