    Buy the tickets for each way one at a time.

    Compare prices for BA or Iberia, with baggage they may be cheaper, especially if you don't have a prepaid mastercard.

    No need to do that on Ryanair, you can book both legs and then just add bags to the return leg.;)

    If your daughter is packing cases which are going via Ryanair she will need to make sure that neither case weighs over 15kg as the excess weight charges are very high - £20 per kg.

    Yes, but she is filling two suitcases to be taken back by Ryanair, but I've edited the post to meet your rather pedantic post.

    Not quite sure how it is " too expensive " out there.
    ;)
    OK, it isn't as cheap as it once was, but it still, overall far cheaper than the UK.
