Just a note of caution with using Ryanair.
I have been looking at this site for ages and took up the last cheap offer that Ryanair had and booked a trip for my family from Stansted to Dublin last monday, staying the night and returning on Tuesday 3rd July. I am on low income and thought this was a great opportunity to treat the family as all I had to consider was accommodation for a night and some spending money.
Getting out was great, on time ect, however, comming back, was notified at the gate that the flight was cancelled aprox 1 hour before depature. Very little help or information provided by Ryanair staff and had to join a long queue, to be eventually told that there was no chance of getting on any other flight that day or the next, and they would refund my fare (5p !)
To cut a long story short, the only way to get back was to pay 170 euros each (total 850 euros) with another airline!
You will not get any financial support from them if they are delayed or worst cancel your flight.0 -

which is why you buy travel insurance to cover such situations.

priority boarding is a rip off.0 -
Click on the 'Remove' link in the paragraph of text just under the bit advising you of the charges. I didn't see it either when I was booking a flight in the early hours of this morning, but someone else pointed it out to me not long ago.is there any way of getting out of the £4 charge for priorty check in/0 bag option.
Please?
Pretty please?
I'm on page with 2 free flights and cannot get rid of £4 charge.
