    Hi

    How did you get the free CCC as it is coming up with a £10 fee on my booking, not got to checkout yet just going through the screens.

    Thanks

    If I book a flight and then can't make it - will there be some kind of additional charge? I can't see anything in the terms and conditions.
    many thanks

    Found a few...

    From Liverpool to Milan Jun 28 - Jul 4 and Jul-4 - July 10
    Also lots from Doncaster to Pisa.

    Note the anti-social flying hours with the Doncaster flights though.

    If you can use Visa Electron card there is no charge. Visa Electron cards are usually used by banks on under 18 accounts so I used my daughters card to pay

    Never been one before and I have done this many times over 5 years. Ryanair do have some predictable patterns (like not refunding taxes if you cancel) and their modus operandi in ignoring unused flights is one you can fairly confidently continue to use against them for a bit longer I think (but do keep a weather eye out for a change - you can be sure it will be posted in MSE soon after it appears in Ryanair's Ts&Cs I think!). You can even be fairly confident that if you fail to use an outbound leg of a return flight there is absolutely no effect on your ability to use the Inbound leg later (if you decide to buy an extra one-off outbound flight to go earlier or later than originally planned for example). With Ryanair it is often much simpler and cheaper to do that than try to change an existing booking.

    However, this current promotion really is the craziest pricing I have ever seen from Ryanair, so much so it also caused me to wonder today if they had put in some penalty cancellation conditions. I had a quick shufty at the Ts&Cs and saw nothing new that caught my eye and went on to make several 'penny' bookings today which I may end up not using.

    I think grizac summed up the climate beautifully a little earlier:

    ....if you are tempted by this latest 'crazy' promotion to visit an airport just once more this year than you otherwise might have done, then I think you can be sure there will be a profit for Ryanair in it somewhere:-)

    Cost of two tickets 0.4p, only extras are luggage prices,however, I can't get through to Ryanair to book a wheelchair without paying £1 per minute so the cost of the flight might prove to be well in excess of what I paid for the ticket. Shame on you Ryanair, discrimating against the disabled. So if you want a straight forward ticket - try, try and try again as the site is busy. I am hoping that once at the airport my mother's plight might be acknowledged, I have never had flight problems with Ryanair so hopefully they will come up trumps again - watch this site.:T :confused:

    Please don't book if you don't want to use the ticket - the stops other people being able to fly taking advantage of this offer. Rest assured that if too many people don't turn up for their flights it will reflect on the passengers not Ryanair. This may be mean but I hope Ryanair blacklists ticket wasters without a genuine reason not to fly.
