Yet another person with absolutely no concept of what health and safety actually is.
Probably for the same reason that they don't let young kids travel on their own, which they might as well be if they are separated by the length of the plane!0 -

Who doesn't allow young children to travel alone?
You can send a 5 year old by BA if you so wish.From Poland...with love.

From the Ryanair website
'PLEASE NOTE - no new bookings for unaccompanied minors will be accepted from the 20th May onwards and Ryanair will NO LONGER accept unaccompanied minors under the age of 16 for travel on Ryanair flights from the 1st October 2009 onwards'.
Just thought, this answers the OPs problems! Surely a child sat by themself is, by definition, unaccompanied. Therefore wouldn't Ryanair have to ensure that children under the age of 16 have to be sat with their parents during a flight.0 -
Not got a five year old but if I had I would send them on BA.... ANYWHERE!0

Please cease trying to interpret things in ways that don't make sense.
The very definition of an unaccompanied minor is one that is travelling by himself. This means going through security alone, to the gate alone and flying alone. Airlines such as BA will look after children that do this, but Ryanair never accepted bookings for children small enough not to be able to figure out an airport by themselves.
Ryanair don't have to ensure anything - there is no legislation against a child being seperated from his/her parents during a flight. If the parents are too greedy to pay for priority boarding and end up having to sit seperated from their children, it's their own fault.
If you don't like the unreserved seating - then fly another airline. It's really that simple.From Poland...with love.

In answer to this post - yawn- please cease from responding when you clearly do not understand the British concept of a 'tongue in cheek' post!0 -
In answer to your post #23, Ryanair clearly 'doesn't allow young children to travel alone'.

Oh dear.
Ryanair does not allow children under 16 to fly alone. If the parents are in the cabin, they clearly are not 'alone'.
Do try and keep up.From Poland...with love.

.....Still not understanding the concept of irony? Nevermind, when you reach the age of 5 you will be able to fly off all by yourself with BA - now that would be something to look forward to! :rolleyes:
Irony?
I'm sorry, perhaps your level of intellect is just far below mine.
Perhaps you might want to consider some foreign language classes to develop your mind?From Poland...with love.
