Ryanair changes to booking

vonniejenks

Hi this is my first time so be gentle,i booked Ryanair flights yesterday(they were the only ones that fitted my schedule) after 3 attempts at booking as the site kept crashing i eventually booked, on receipt of my itinerary less than 30 mins later i noticed that our titles were both registered as Mr not Mrs,i attempted to change on line but the computer system advised a £220 fee was due for this change,having eventually found the telephone number for Ryanair and held for 10 minutes i was advised it was fine to travel with this as tickets were not produced and that the boarding passes did not have names on anyway ,when i pressed the rep on this she said it would be fine but declined to make the change for me without charge or to note on the booking or to confirm by email what she had said.I cant find any email to contact Ryanair myself and am really concerned that on arrival we'll be refused boarding or have to pay even more.I havent flown with them before but having ready some of the forums im increasingly concerned-anyone had experience of this or have any contact details-many thanks:A

it was fine to travel with this as tickets were not produced and that the boarding passes did not have names on anyway

Boarding passes do have the name of the passenger.

I can't advise really. I've never had problems with Ryanair. Plenty on this forum have though.

However, if you have made an error in booking a flight, however minor, there seems zero flexibilty in RA's policy. You wiil have to pay to correct it.

This is not the case at all - if the OP calls them they will do it for free if you get the right operator. If not it will be a very small fee, it used to be £10 but may have risen to £15.

Well, lets see if the OP can 'find the right operator' Good luck!

Many thanks think will attempt again to contact customer service/admin and hope they will alter at a nominal fee x

When I worked for Jet2.com, the only issue with having 'Mr' instead of 'Mrs' or 'Miss' on a booking was that the weight of the aircraft when full laden was calculated using average passenger weights - the average male is a bit heavier than the average female. If a passenger had checked in online, only their first name and surname were checked against their passport at the boarding gate. If they checked in at the airport, the title was corrected by the check in agent without charge and, in most cases, without the customer even being aware of it.

I realise this is Ryanair we're talking about and not Jet2.com but it would be most unlikely for them to charge for the correction.

Got to be honest, Yorkshire has to be home to the fattest women on the face of the earth.
From 'mam and dad' tattoos to gold necklaces from Argos and a snide bright pink Goldigga tracksuit - Yorkshire is the !!!! end of the world. The single best thing about it is the M1 that cuts through it and the Yorkshire Dales.

My son was born not too long back in Barnsley, I am not joking I went to the hospital restaurant and felt like I needed a passport. The woman asked what butter I wanted on my toast because Flora was 10p extra.

The single most backward place in the British Isles after Wales.

And might I add, the likely reason why on a Jet2 flight from Tel Aviv to Manchester it had to divert to Leeds to fuel up because it didnt have enough to hold - Because they used industry standard sizes for women rather than Yorkshire sizes for women.

You're not a 'chubby chaser' then?

The flight from Tel Aviv was diverted to Yorkshire for lessons on how to be 'careful' with money.

You can always tell a Yorkshireman,
but you can't tell him much.

I have no problem with an oversized woman, but there is a world of difference to some beautiful woman who likes the odd cake with her cake, and a Yorkshire woman.

I'm not joking, fat Yorkshire women should come with a government warning.
