Free Flights with Ryanair Credit Card

Apologies if this is old (or uninteresting) news, but I have just noticed that Ryanair are offering one free European return flight when you apply as a new credit card customer, and put £250 of purchases within 90 days of receiving it. There's a huge amonut of conditions such as paying taxes, not flying in July or August etc., but someone may find it useful.

'Continue to use your Ryanair.com Credit Card and we'll reward you with ongoing bonus flight offers courtesy of Ryanair.com. All you have to do is spend £1000 on your card every 3 months to receive one flight or spend £3000 every 3 months to receive a pair of tickets to one of hundreds of exciting European destinations.'... and so on.

The link is here for the full details.

    Given that it's Ryanair, I would check the T&Cs very carefully. And then throw them away and do business with a company that gives a **** about its customers.
    Eh?? I give up!! Towel is getting thrown in here! :D

    Seems like a resonable deal - only probs I can see is only getting 1 flight so you have to pay for another one if your a couple and because your gonna book another flight you will end up looking for the cheapest flights at 99p so will end up only saving £2 or so. Unless you spend £3k in 3 months which would be hard for me. Would be good for a large family that spend £1k a month though.

    Welcome Niteflyer.

    I had a look at this offer on a recent flight. On the face of it the offer sounds good but from what I read you still need to pay the taxes and charges.

    With the most I usually pay for a Ryanair flight being 1p you could be spending a lot of money on your credit card to save pennies on flights.

    Also, a 2% fee on balance transfers in case anyone was interested.
