Hmmm
On the Ryanair website they are offering free return bonus flights.
Click on the link and it takes you to a partner website, get 5 people to subscribe to the newsletter and you get a free flight.
Trouble is, no-one seems to have a clue at Ryanairs end how to obtain this free flight and the lady at activity breaks that deals with it isnt at her desk.
i smell a hard deal here, i will keep you posted :eek:
p.s anyone booked their free flight yet?
Just spoken to the lovely Sarah at activity breaks, as soon as 5 people have signed up using your special link, ryanair send by email a special password and link.

Reminds me of this old chestnut...
A man sitting at Bar at Brussels Airport noticed a very beautiful woman sitting next to him.
He thought to himself, "Wow, she's so gorgeous she must be a flight attendant. But which airline does she work for?
Hoping to pick her up, he leaned towards her and uttered the Delta slogan: "Love to fly and it shows?" She gave him a blank, confused stare and he immediately thought to himself, "Oh, she doesn't work for Delta".
A moment later, another slogan popped into his head. He leaned towards her again, "Something special in the air?" She gave him the same confused look. He mentally kicked himself, and scratched Singapore Airlines off the list.
Next he tried the Thai Airways slogan: "Smooth as Silk." This time the woman turned on him "What the **** do you want?"
The man smiled, then slumped back in his chair, and said, "Ahhhhh, Ryanair!"0 -
Just above that activitybreaks banner is a big banner advertising 1.5 million seats for 1p each.
You dont need to refer anyone to get these,
just find them.
Use the findlowestfares tab to search a 20 day window at a time0 -
Plus Taxes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.............................
No Good me telling a client they can have holiday for a pound,then charging them a hundred!!(wouldnt get a lot of closures)
About time ALL operators were transparent with their prices,Airlines and Tour Op's alike!!.
Happy Hols0 -
The real ryanair bargains are those £5 each way inc taxes, that turn up in the depths of winter.Posts are not advice and must not be relied upon.0

The chances are the 5 people are the 1 and same TBeckett100 with different email addresses hence the impatience. BTW activitybreaks are a PARTNER, not ryanair.
If you look, you will get flights for 1p (+ taxes and charges BARRON) without the hassle of signing up to a news letter0 -
Bullying tactics.
I would like to explain what happened next.
I emailed Sarah at Activity Breaks and said 24hrs had passed and where is the link. All along this is never advertised that you have to wait 24hrs for a link!!
A link arrived and i spent 2hrs trying to find an avaliable flight. I did and then asked activity breaks why they were trying to charge me, only to find that I have to pay for taxes and charges. THEREFORE IT IS NOT FREE
The point is, the advertising is misleading and I dont want others to waste time thinking they will get something free in return for 5 friends being offered holidays every hour.
I have made a complaint to the Advertising Standards Authority.:money:0 -
doh, Most people would have guessed that taxes wouldn't be included and that you couldn't just pick any any flight.
