Just booked my first Ryanair flight and wondered if you can take your own sandwiches to eat onboard or is this not allowed, have done this on other airlines no probs, Andy :cool:

yes. As long as it is in your hand luggage when you board. They'll get all !!!!!y if it isn't.

Yes, you can take your own food and drink. The only limitations is that airlines don't like you drinking your own alcohol on board (though people have been known to do it sneakily). Not only does it cut into their profits but they cannot monitor how much you have drank.

Give it time & Ryanair will charge "corkage" on all non-Ryanair food

Ryarair welcome this but no own booze and no hot drinks other than that it's fine, look at their FAQ

They may let you eat your own food but they may not let you put your packaging in their garbage bags! My elderly neighbours (who are a little penny pinching to say the least) flew Ryanair at Easter and took their own supply of sandwiches and canapes in their hand luggage to avoid the overpriced airline food.

When the steward was passing down the aisle gathering up the rubbish from passengers he stopped them as they were about to pop theirs in the bag and asked if it was purchased on board. When they replied no he politely informed them that there would be rubbish bins in the airport they could use once they disembarked the aircraft.

They were livid, I heard all about it when they got home and had to read their lengthy complaint letter to Mr O'Leary (which i'm sure went straight into one of those garbage bags). I must say I found the whole thing hilarious though :rotfl:
