Priority Boarding
Comments

I guess everyone else got it.
But just for you - you fly into a city, then know everything about the country...... Your common sense is obviously as limited as your travels.
I repeat my comment from a previous post - you just can't help yourself - and please refrain from continuing your silly rants via personal messages to my inbox.0 -
Took a flight from Manchester to Paris today.....well, not strictly Paris, more like some randomly placed airport about an hour and half away, but in any case - I can confirm Ryanair are still letting adults with young children (today mine were 7 and 4) come to the front of the queue.0

so mr wang,
after 2 months inactivity on this thread you have decided to resurrect it.i can only assume you are an internet troll trying to cause mischief.
if you are not, maybe you could clarify your last post.
did you book priority boarding?
were you in the middle of the "other queue" or at the very front of the "other queue"?
were you allowed to go to the front of the PB queue or the Other queue with your children?
were any others with children moved to the front of the PB queue?
what did those in the PB queue say to you or the gate attendants?
what happened on the return journey?
you seem to claim that Manchester lets you join the PB queue with children every time you travel with them without having to book PB.
perhaps you could clarify a few things about Manchester Airport and so help explain to the rest of us mere mortals, who never get anything from Ryanair without paying, how you get this special priviledge.
does ryanair have a sign at the gate advising passengers to go to the PB queue or the "other" queue?
what gates do you normally fly from at manchester?
do you ever pay for PB?
what do the other passengers, in both queues say when you get shown to the front of the PB queue?
do you work for ryanair or any other airline?
do you work at or for Manchester airport?
you seem to travel a lot with young children (you never mention them as being family) of different ages, does this give you any special priviledges when you travel with these children that an ordinary passenger would not get?
are you able to explain why you seem to be the only person who uses ryanair that gets this special treatment?
can you explain how, when the rules are very clear on this matter, you get this special priviledge every time you fly with ryanair?
the above is just for my idle curiosity as i am trying to see if you are being economical with the truth with regard to your postings just to antagonise the people on here.
i will not call you a liar on an open forum, but i can only point other readers to posts i have made previously on this thread where i have tried to explain the rules that ryanair operate by.
these rules are observed all over europe, at all airports on a daily basis.
there are obviously exceptions to every rule, but i have not yet seen anyone else come on here and claim to have the same priviledges that you appear to have, in that ryanair rules do not apply to you.
so in case anyone is in any doubt about this matter,and wants to follow any advice given by mr wang re priority boarding you should read the following
IF YOU WANT TO GET PRIORITY BOARDING ON RYANAIR YOU MUST PAY FOR IT.0 -
I have been called with my children after the priorityboarders with ryanair from Faro. Similar to easyjets procedure, but definitely never from the UK. I was pleasantly surprised, it seemed the portugese reps were trying to avoid the problem of having a full flight and the bother of getting people to move seats. It does happen but obv airport specific.:A boots tart and tesco chick:A0

I won't answer a single of your questions because I believe it is you who is the troll. And cant really be bothered anyway. You apparently have this severe hatred toward Ryanair and indeed those that look upon it fondly, ie myself.
So let's keep this simple, add some credibility to your rants - prove you have flown with Ryanair in the last 12 months, I can easily prove I have flown with them about 18 times or so in the last year, probably more. Simply post a boarding pass here and add some weight to your supposed knowledge because I don't believe you have any credibility at all.
Those on this board that know me, and there are several, know I travel extensively with my children, heck, a quick google would have you staring at hundreds of photographs and a blog with over 100,000 views.
In any case I have just spent about 12 hours having complete Disney overload and so will bid you goodnight, but hope that you would find it within you to see and reap the benefits of Ryanair and relax a little.
Life is too short to get so angry over someone that has different experiences than you

FR901 on Sunday couple with baby told to join the others queue like everyone else as they didn't have priority boarding. They were carrying the damn thing so it's just like other people with their bags, (no they didn't have to put it in the luggage measure cage before anyone asks) shame.0 -
EasyJet are penalising customers who have already purchased Speedy boarding. I purchased easy boarding for £8 pp per flight to Egypt. A new customer purchasing a extra leg room will pay £11.50. However, as a customer who unwittingly purchased Speedy boarding, before easyJet changed its policy on seat booking, i had to pay a total of £13.50.
This means, that easyJet is penalising customers who have already purchased Speedy boarding by 2 pounds per person per flight
EasyJet should ensure that customers who purchased Speedy boarding before they chose to change their boarding policy, pay the same amount as new customers. This is either profiteering by easyJet or they have made a mistake. Either way, it is totally unfair And they should fix it
I raised this problem with the customer contact centre. Neither the first person nor their supervisor was able to offer me the £8 refund.
I use easyJet in preference to Ryanair because I have found them to be fairer and more upfront. But this is making me think again0 -

If you have an easyjetplus card, why would you purchase "easy boarding" on top??????? If you have an easyjet plus card you don't need to pay anything else, you can sit wherever you like for free.
If i had purchased a speedy boarding card, i think i would have read up on either getting a refund for the period of time i had left on the card, or read up on what benefits i get with the new boarding system.0 -
Why do you think tim7273384 has an easyJet Plus card?
As far as I gather, passengers having purchased Speedy boarding before the allocated system was introduced will be allocated an "up front" seat, which is worth £8. They can then choose to pay the difference to upgrade to an extra legroom seat (should be £4 more). Not sure where how tim7273384 is arriving at the numbers he mention.0 -
Sorry, maybe i misread that. I have no idea where these figures come from so i was getting a bit confused.
email customer.service@easyjet.com Maybe that will get you somewhere?0
