Ryanair...not on Ryanair.com

BeeUK

Hellooo

Does anyone know which flight website where you can book a Ryanair flight without it sending you to Ryanair.com to book it?

Reason is...I have seen a flight from a Spain to the UK but there price in GBP is lots better than the Euro price they make you pay if you book direct with them! Their conversion rate from GBP to EUR is about 1.38 or something daft!!

Thanks!

Alas I think you can only select UK departures on Travelsupermarket...I need my Departure airport to be Tenerife South!

Thanks though!

I'm pretty sure you can only book Ryanair flights direct with Ryanair, part of their concept of low cost, don't have to pay any comission fees, or registration fees to be part of the Reservation systems etc.

If its a flight they bill in Euro's (they bill in the currency of the country of departure unless its a return flight) where have you seen a GPB price advertised?

yeah, you could book with anyone else but it would cost more, travel republic book Ryanair, but they always work out more expensive!

If you do a areturn quote on the site it gives the price for each leg in GBP...but I only want the inbound leg, which then gets priced in EUR!

It's also listed as GBP on the flight checker which is what got me on to it in the first place!

Hmmmm... I think when you use third party websites to check prices (i.e. skyscanner, martin's flight checker) then they will do the conversion to GBP themselves using their own rate which must differ from Ryanair's.

Regards to the return thing, a lot of airlines will give you a discount for return tickets than one ways.

Could you find a 1p flight for the other leg, so making it a return? This will probably only work out better value if you have an Electron card to pay (and TBH I can't recall seeing any 1p flights on that route).

bagand96, the return concept that you have noted only tends to apply to the full service airlines. Low cost airlines sell their tickets on a single sector basis (i.e. there is no such thing as a 'return flight') x

feature all the UK budget airlines. You can book via them and pay in £s or any other currency you want.I think they may charge a small booking fee and they offer optional extras such as cancelation insurance etc.
