Sorry, but that's the funniest thing I have heard for a long time.

If by any chance you win in court, you really don't expect RyanUnfair to pay up, do you? They have a very long history of ignoring court rulings, as well as the laws of the UK and EU.

I would take GREAT delight in sending bailiffs to Stansted, Gatwick or Birmingham to slap a seizure order on one of Seamus O'Sleazy's 737s. Oh and I doubt that such a seizure would be deemd to be an "extraordinary circumstance" when it came to EU compo for all of the passengers who suffered as a result - failure to pay court ordered compensation comes with very predictable consequences.....

Why be bl**dy minded, just check-in before, problem solved.

Wake up MSE this is not new news, I posted it last week, I guess the Daily Wail will pick it up now as a shock horror story.

When the email came for online check-in last week I saw to my utter dismay that I had mis-spelt my granddaughter's name by omitting one letter. I was tempted to let it be and risk it, but then thought it wasn't worth not being allowed on so made the phone call. Nice lady let me change it FOR FREE.... AND the phonecall only lasted about 3 minutes in total.
Both flights to Dusseldorf Weeze were on time, clean planes, and pleasant enough staff and they cost only £6.99 each way per person and I paid with their vouchers.
Expect nothing and sometimes you will have a pleasant surprise.

Ryanair's Stephen McNamara says: "As 'Manage my Booking' will be unavailable during this website closure, we have advised all passengers due to travel over the coming weekend to check-in on Ryanair.com before 4pm on Friday."

This is simply not true. I even checked the small print of my "Ryanair Travel Advisory" email, and there's no mention of the website closure. Am travelling back from Budapest on Saturday.

Why does anybody bother with Ryanair? Why deal with a firm so devious?

You haven't actually read the thread, have you?

Why does anybody fly Ryanair when they have rules like these? I won't use them.

Not really difficult to follow, are they?

That depends on whether you are adequately informed of them and that they are fair.

Yes, they are difficult to follow, especially the 10kg hand baggage limit.
