A quick thank you (Ryanair)

A quick thank you to all of you who said that you'll never use
Ryanair (and often never have). I'm at Stansted with 7 Ryanair
flights booked over the next few days for just a VERY few pounds each.
It's thanks to people like you that I get these great deals, once again - thank you.
PS.I'm communicating with my Free (+p&p) 3 Dongle so thanks to MSE
F.Cr. and others who put me on to that one.

Good man Bob.
Michael O'Leary should be the patron saint of budget airline travel - only those too stupid or too lazy to use Ryanair's website correctly would disagree.
I've used Ryanair over 100 times for travel between Ireland and the UK and never once had a problem - the sooner he takes over the decrepit Aer Lingus the better.0 -

Amen! I've used Ryanair loads of times and have enjoyed fares from 1p - £20 max including all taxes and charges :T
Thanks to Ryanair I've seen most of Europe for next to nothing. :beer:0 -

Why am I stupid/lazy not to use Ryanair? I can certainly use the website correctly. What I choose to do is NOT to use Ryanair. My choice.
You lot really deserve each other. You seem to think that the sun shines out of his backside, yet he will c**p all over you given half a chance.
Think that makes you the fools.0 -

I think not.
I am basing my opinion on more than a hundred flights, none of which have caused me any problems, the majority of which have been on time if not early and which have saved me a great deal of money.
Michael O'Leary brought the concept of a successful low-cost airline to Europe, he has opened up routes to parts of previously unexplored Europe bringing with it re-development of airports and the chance for thousands of people to own second homes in affordable parts of pleasant areas.
There are been occasional hiccups - inevitable with the sheer number of flights Ryanair operate - but I have had a much better experience flying with them than that shower of arrogant !!!!!! at British Airways.
Ryanair's website is incredibly easy to understand and only knuckle-dragging simpletons fall foul of Ryanair's rigidly-applied but clearly state T&Cs.
If I ever meet the man I'll shake him warmly by the hand.0 -

you're very welcome to it, I hope you enjoy your trip.:D
We have used them in the past, in the old days before they started charging extra for things that are a necessary part of the travel - like checking in for a flight. I totally "get" paying extra for luggage, but don't like their way of doing business now.Member of the first Mortgage Free in 3 challenge, no.19
Balance 19th April '07 = minus £27,640
Balance 1st November '09 = mortgage paid off with £1903 left over. Title deeds are now ours.0 -

I've just arrived from the West country, we only have a few buses, and
anyway the bar is open in 2 hours 44 mins! Would I pay rip-off rates for a hotel for 2 hours 44 mins when I have a bottle of red wine in my bag to finish off before security? So in answer to your question....Yes :beer:0 -

Shock horror, URGENT UPDATE ON MY TRAVELS!!!!
My first three flights all left on time and arrived early so just the usual, brilliant Ryanair service but no surprise there. Next flights on Saturday.
I just love the fact that the flight from Dublin to Leeds (including ALL taxes) cost less than the 12 mile bus journey in to Harrogate!.:T0 -
They are great for the types who are prepared to fly at terrible times to airports far out of the city
that you are meant to be flying to and pay over the odds for food and drink or go without.
Then travel with next to no luggage unless you want to pay £35 each way.
Yes, if you are prepared to go somewhere no one wants to go you will get it cheap
The Customer Service is at best a joke at worst plain rude and unhelpful
The enquiry call centre only open 9am-5;45pm monday-friday and closed all weekend,Then you have to pay £1 a minute for any type of help or advice on the phone and many people here have said they have been kept waiting for 30 plus minutes.
At the end of the day you get what you pay for and if you are that skint that you are prepared to put up with this type of low cost low class carrier then good luck.0 -

How can a 7.00am flight to tenerife be terrible, same time easyjet, monarch and thomsons do, plus a choice of 3 flights a day to some airports. I take my own sandwiches or even bacon butties with me, i buy a bottle of water at the airport (not ryanairs fault, but that's sercurity for you)Then travel with next to no luggage unless you want to pay £35 each way.
You pay £35, as oppose to someone with hand luggage, because it costs for your case to be checked in, then the electric for the conveyor belt, someones wages to remove your case, the cost of the cart, to transfer your case to the plane, the wages of the person who drives it, someones wages to put your case on the plane at your arrival destination, someone is paid to remove your case of the plane, again drove from the plane to the terminal and again someone puts that case on the conveyor belt. And the same happens on the way home.Yes, if you are prepared to go somewhere no one wants to go you will get it cheap
What like tenerife south, alicante, murcia, gerona, krakow, madrid etc etcThe Customer Service is at best a joke at worst plain rude and unhelpful

Never needed them, always checked checked and re-checked my details before i press the submit button.At the end of the day you get what you pay for and if you are that skint that you are prepared to put up with this type of low cost low class carrier then good luck
Thank you ryanair, i've had many a cheap flight with you, and continue to do so, some for even as cheap as 1p return.
some i've taken hand luggage, some i've paid for luggage, but even then cheaper than a train ticket to london......................:T and more relilable and on time than the trains.0
