    Got 4 x £10 tickets Glasgow-Paris at £10 each.

    Well, actually, as with Ryanair by the time you add baggage charges and credt card £15 each but not bad.

    Have you noticed it's impossible to book WITHOUT baggage on Ryanair? With 4 of us I only need 2 bags but if you put 0 bags against a pax they charge you £2 each for 'priority boarding'

    Velly clever Mr O'Leally!

    You can book without baggage, just select that option then remove the online check-in option thingy that pops up underneath and it's no charge.

    Just booked three returns to Knock, £94 including baggage and card fee. Have friends with a hotel out there, so the total cost of my one week holiday is ... £94!

    Works out at £4.50 a night! x
    Gone ... or have I?

    I thought the whole point of Ryanair & other 'no frills' airlines was "the earlier you book, the cheaper it is?"

    I booked my flights in February, but after seeing this offer, I checked, and the flights I booked are STILL available, only this time, half the price. What do you reckon my chances are if I ask for the difference? Yes, I thought so:(

    Maybe thay just invested my money in a high-interest account to pay for this!

    Its also 13 euro EW pp on the bus from Beauvais to Paris ( stop is at Congress/Port Mailot)
    You are better booking, paying online + printing off your return bus ticket as there is normally a Q for tickets.
    Info is available at my Unofficial ryanair destination guide to Paris

    It isn't cheaper though to pre pay the bus ticket. Maybe it's better just to queue when you get there, in case something goes wrong like you arrive after check-in closes and miss the flight, or the flight gets diverted to Lille (as has happened).

    You can guarantee if something does go wrong there'll be no way of getting the bus ticket refunded, and €26 return per person is a lot to lose.

    When searching for a flight enter the dates you want, when they appear if there is no cheap flight just click the prev or next day button and keep doing so until you get a 1p flight. there really is loads and it's so easy searching this way if you are flexible.

    Thanks for the heads up Martin:)

    I'm trying to find a flight to Poland, but all i'm bringing up is flights between £30-80. How can I find one of these Golden tickets?

    I wanted to be in Poland around 24th - 27th of May. I never seem to be able to snag one of these cheap flights that Ryan Air advertise. Any advice folks?

    Don't know where you are flying from but £30 to Poland sounds pretty damn cheap to me, if that's a return incl. taxes?

    I've been looking quite a lot myself and £20 for the full journey (from London anyway) incl. taxes is absolutely minimum. Some places are not that cheap, like eg. Malta or Gran canaria. It's difficult to find return flights to under £80-100 to those places. Even the cheap (eg. spain) can have much more expensive flights depending on which day you fly.

    Try and search using http://www.kayak.co.uk - I find it quite good.

    I want to book 4 one-way flights from Stanstead to Bergerac on either the 30th May or 4th June and can't find any 0.01 flights only 29.99 or 19.99 respectively. I've done the 20+ days search just to see what dates the 0.01 flights are and can't find any. Can you????

    Flown with Ryannair many times, never had a problem.

    Flights to Poland, Croatia and Italy tend to be more expensive and less likely to be in the deals. North West German airports and Dublin are often cheap. You can often do a day return to Dublin from Stansted for £16 or £20 pp, irrelevant of deals.
