  • This states that Ryan Air charges you £3.50 to check in luggage if you pre-book & £7.00 if you do it at the airport.

    Have recently booked 5 seats on a Ryan air flight in advance (on the net) and was charged £10 each - £50 quid total

    Have I missed something ??????

    NO WAY been with them got stuck with them got left by them.

    No aircraft arrived in Barcelona for the home trip got stuck there 3 days no compensation no hotel no nothing.

    They could give me a ticket and I still would not fly with them.

    Think it has gone up to £5 per sector.

    Just wondering why the taxes for one of the flights i was looking at was quoted at £25.20 when i think i read they wouldn't exceed £10.

    Not all flights are included in the offer.

    Was the flight going outside Europe?

  • Thanks again Martin, just got a weekend in Dublin for £40!
    I followed your advice this time last year and myself and a friend had a 4 day photographic trip in Ireland. Managed to book the return flights for £40, a 3* hotel for £22 per night (not each) and the car cost just £60 for 3 day's! All from links from your site.
    Keep up the good work!:T
    :beer: :beer:
  • I have just booked two flights to Barcelona for £40 - for our first wedding anniversary - thank Martin

    Flown Ryanair lots - so hope all will be OK

    Whilst I'm all up for saving money, I'd urge people to think twice before booking with Ryanair - they have some of the worst employment practices going, and the company is run by a megalomaniac. Personally, I wouldn't fly Ryanair if they were paying me, but that's my choice. There's raw money saving and there's doing the right thing. For me, this is in the former.

    Well that's OK then - they only provide cheap flights.
