    What is your problem?!!

    Your last line sums it up - if you don't like it, travel with someone else!
    Is that your best answer, dmg ? Ever considered I might want to travel on Ryanair's route? I might not like travelling with them sometimes, but the route doesn't give me much choice, so I takes it. You know the rest. Posting my experiences here might help keep big companies just a tad more in line.

    satan666wayne - Why do you think I stopped posting and let certain posters quickly disappear back into the oblivion they created all by themselves? I got revenge and full satisfaction, and you got ? ... is it dark down there?

    They were still selling them last week when i flew with them so i doubt they have gone bust.

    Perhaps they are just having a few technical difficulties?

    If you are so against ryanair as you seem to be why bother using them?

    The website now appears to be working. Did you tell them to fix it, Glenn?

    Is it just me or does the Marks and Spencer website do down everytime they start a sale?

    Do you think they have gone bust?!!
    Gone ... or have I?

    Nope, but then we all know who they are, and last time I looked, M&S don't have a cottage as a registered address.

    I would assume that, as you fly with them so often, you would know who Ryanair are?

    What an absurd answer!

    Off to Paris now ... on a no frills airline ...

    If they haven't gone bust ...

    dmg, I fly with Ryanair. I know that the check-in staff in Ryanair uniform and many of those at Ryanair desks are not Ryanair employed. I also know that many Ryanair pilots are not Ryanair employed, but I do associate the flying operation as Ryanair. In fact I wish Ryanair would focus on it a bit more sometimes.

    Ryanair don't have a cottage in their registered address.

    Scratchcards and bus tickets with funny names in the small print are something else.

    It seems a bit of a sport slagging off Ryanair. But we have used them twice recently and had no problems whatsoever. Last week we flew with them to Santiago de Compostela and flights both ways were early, by 40 minutes coming back! They were 1p flights, meaning a total of £40 return for two, including taxes.

    There were 70 people on the outward plane, and less than 50 returning, the planes seat 189. I don't know how they made any money since very few bought any food or drink. Significantly I noticed the stewardess with the scratchcards and they did not sell a single one on either flight. Seems some people have got the message.

    No, the email to the administrator probably did that

    I'm afraid I'm not much of an expert when it comes to cottages.
