Ryanair will introduce a graduated charge for any bag over 5kgs with duty free also charged as a second additional carry on item

I wish people would stop making statements without providing a link to where confirmation can be found or stating how they came by their information.

Only restricting weight and not dimensions?

Oh how I would look forward to the entertainment at the gate, be worth booking a cheap flight and just staying in the airport.

I don't really care what they charge for or don't charge for.
If its cheap enough I'll book it. If its not, I won't.

Laptop bag and 5Kg max free, that'll do me!

I wish more people thought like that. In general I find that people are much to focused on extra charges. Just look at the final price and make your booking decision based on that. The downside is that it requires a bit more time to work out the total price but the upside is that you don't have to pay for services you don't want/need.

I've heard ryanair are going to insist all passengers have a wee before they board the aircraft so they weigh less and therefore they need less fuel and then they can convert the onboard toilets to starbucks.

source? the fella down the pub last night who also said he could outrun usain bolt if he wanted to, but he does'nt

Dont most bus services get you close to your actual destination (i.e. town/city centre), rather than a place "nearby"?

You'd struggle to find many airports in the town centre... I personally think the Ryanair "miles away from destination" thing is rather overplayed though.

Isn't it just. It depends where you are going.

I've been to Madrid, Valencia, Edinburgh, Pisa and Dublin and ended up exactly where I thought I was meant to be.

When I went to Girona I would have been dismayed if I'd ended up in Barcelona instead.

Thank God I wasn't going to London (Gatwick).

You need to learn not to take things so literally! Of course a flight cannot be exactly the same as catching a bus, unless you are suggesting they should do away with security at airports?

Stick your hand out at a passing plane and expect it to stop?

I think this will happen myself.
The amount & size of cabin baggage is just getting silly now.
In fact it is actually delaying the departure of quite a number of flights that I have been on in the last year or so.

But this is a problem that Ryanair themselves created by charging £50 return for hold baggage.
