    The first time I meet a Ryanair representative is when I board the plane. Any staff that I encounter before that are not optional to any passenger.

    So, you do just turn up and get on the aeroplane?
    It is a fee, it is not a penalty for breach of contract.
    Well, you need to tell the staff at Stansted Airport that, because they all seem to think it's a fine.
    The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark

    Because you can't print them last minute. I think you have to do it 4 hrs before departure?
    However i would suspect the person who forgets to print his boarding pass has also forgotten his passport and left something on the stove.

    So phatbear was incorrect then.

    I have explained my journey through the airport with relation to staffing costs incurred. Do you have a point, or are you unsure of the process? If the latter, I can go into more detail.

    I have never been to Stansted, and don't intend to, so that would not be possible.
    Gone ... or have I?

    You can print your boarding pass up to the time that you fly. You have to check in online four hours before. Therefore phatbear was not incorrect.

    It is a common misunderstanding, and I only know because I have done it myself ... for a friend with a faulty printer!

    Is that a yes or a no?

    Then I would hazard a guess that they are more interested in ripping the passenger off, than providing any semblance of good customer service.

    I don't really understand what you are asking?

    Are the staff at Stansted actually Ryanair staff, or are they a handling agent?

    phatbear, if you have a Pret there I may be persuaded! ;)

    I really don't understand what the difference would be.

    Anyway...was that a yes or a no?
