I use Ryanair frequently so felt compelled to watch the programme on Ch 4.Felt there was nothing it to give me cause for concern and their safety record speaks for itself. The fact that some pilots were critical of their employer didn't seem too credible when they continue working for them. If their concern was real then what price is your own life.
Everyone has their choice to travel with whichever airline they choose, but don't forget it's down to Ryanair that air travel is affordable because without them the other airlines would have us pay very much more inflated prices.

As somebody who works in the industry, I always feel I should point out that most other airlines would have you pay a realistic price, afterall flying to Tenerife for £200rtn isn't actually inflated, travelling nearly 2,000 miles there and back for £200-£250 isn't bad when you think about it and it's how much it costs to operate the flights these days due to fuel being so expensive.
However Ryanair have managed to get other ways to make money than just the ticket cost, such as through advertising, EU incentives, extra passenger charges and saving a small fortune by having pilots on zero hour contracts and other cost cutting methods with staff, hence they have made quite a number of people feel that paying over £150+ means they are being ripped off, when the truth is those types of fares just aren't sustainable without turning to the Ryanair model.

That's fine but as long as they are flying safely its open to the other airlines to compete with them anything that ryanair does can be copied
If it wasn't for them and Easyjet we would still be getting ripped off by the older established airlines and the tour companies
Can still remember the days when the supplements for flying from Scotland were more than the full fares on the cut price ones

Let's be honest about this, Ryanair have got their business plan just right, they continue to offer the lowest fares but still show a profit .Does it matter they make up their income shortfall by charging excessive hold bag fees etc at least it gives customers the option of paying for the extras rather than having the optional extras hoisted on us whether we want them or not. A couple of friends and myself booked flights for next month at the wonderful price of £104 ea, but if you wanted to book the same flights today they would be over £200, a bit nearer the date and they will probably be nearer £300. One of our party feels she can't manage with a 10kg cabin allowance and is prepared to pay £100 extra to book a case, so her flight will end up costing her £204, that's her choice, she feels its still a good price.
As for pilots being on zero hour contracts, well that happens in a lot of industries now and not everyone is earning what a pilot earns.

I too use them regularly and didn't share your confidence.
Talk of a couple of planes with ''half an hours flying time of fuel remaining'' and another that ''had begun using reserve fuel'' left me concerned.
How far can you get in half an hour to land in an emergency?

He was due to retire in October - I reckon he wanted to go out with a bang! I'm assuming that the program makers might have indicated that the allegations would have more impact if one or more of the pilots was willing to be identified - that way they can dodge any question of rigging the report with 'unverifiable sources'.....

If you were a pilot and thought it was so unsafe would you still fly their planes???

Exactly ! I think some of the Ryanair pilots are still smarting over the fact they now have to pay for their own meals whilst at work......as the chief executive is reported as saying 'they earn enough, why should I pay for their lunch!'

They don't advise printing them off too soon before the flight because the fight times my change. That invalidates the boarding pass.

I have checked this out on a previous occasion when the flight time was changed and Ryanair said that as they had changed the flight time, then the boarding pass was still valid, but a good point from you as Ryanair are notorious for policy changes, especially if they can gain extra revenue!
Maybe "FIGHT times" in your post is the truth!!:laugh::laugh:

from the Ryanair website:
a couple of point to note:
- the removal of the Recaptcha security 'feature' from individual passengers
- I take it the 'Passenger registration/retention service' means they will store your details so you dont need to input them every time you make a booking - not before time (as long as you dont have to pay a subscription to benefit from this feature!!)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ryanair briefed shareholders on its plans to roll out a new website and digital marketing strategy which will include:
· Launching the ryanair Twitter page.
· Removing the Recaptcha security feature for individual passengers from 30 Oct next (Recaptcha will remain in place for high volume bookers, screenscrapers, travel agents etc.).
· Ryanair’s mobile app will from Tues 1 Oct be downloadable free of charge (previously €3).
· Booking flow redesign to go live in December.
· Passenger registration/retention service live for summer 2014, substantially reducing the time it takes to complete bookings.

If I've read it correctly you have to say goodbye to your case 4 days before you fly. I wonder how many people would be prepared to do that?
No chance of my missus ever agreeing to it..lol

..... and will go offline soon afterwards as its a complete b*****ks of an idea for normal holidaymakers, it will never fly and those 2 guys are living an their own world - would love them to go on Dragons Den for an investment for this and see how long they last before they are laughed off.
Thanks for the original posting and giving me a laugh !

I don't see the problem in principle. Using travel agents and UPS seems sensible to me.
The idea of sending luggage ahead is not new but because it has been done on an individual basis it has been expensive. The countries chosen probably have enough volume to make the low cost feasible.
I am sure there are many holidaymakers who would dearly love to have the core of their luggage travel to their hotel without them having the hassle.
While I won't be using the service, I wish them well.

like you and tens of millions of others I also will not be using the service but also wish them well - but it's still a crazy idea !!!.
You give them your case 4 days before you fly and hope that it arrives at your hotel/apartment when you do (who looks after it prior to your arrival or do they deliver it as you arrive at the door of your hotel/apt- I think not.
i have just printed off my flight tickets and boarding passes for ryanair and checked in on line, but it doesn't say that i have 2 cases booked in? at 15 kg, i am sure i put it down when booking them in may? it just asked me if i wanted more baggage at £25 a case each way? does anyone know if the first case is included?
Tom & Sharon
29-09-2013, 21:27
No, Ryanair don't include any luggage.
If you booked baggage in when you booked, you would have paid for it at the time. It would show on your original booking confirmation that they sent, and would show on your boarding pass.
Don't panic. Re- check your original booking confirmation, or look online under "view my booking". If you've not done it, you can still add it even though you've already checked in. You just go to "manage booking" then "add bags", and add them on and pay for them. You can then reprint your boarding pass.

For the past 2 days I have been trying to book a flight on Ryanairs website but I have been unable to complete the booking, or indeed get past page 2. Found out their site doesnt like Chrome so downloaded Firefox as suggested from a Google search into the problem and sure enough it works on that. Flight now booked at last!
Just picked this up on Sky News
http://news.sky.com/story/1163533/ryanair-moves-to-fully-allocated-seating
allocated seating to cost €/£ 5. If you dont go for this preselection offer you get your seats allocated 24hrs before you fly.
Interesting to see how that works out as their press release says .....
All passengers who don’t wish to pay a small fee (€5)to select their preferred seats will be allocated seats during the 24 hours prior to the date of scheduled departure.
is this after online checkin / printing of boarding passes ? Will the cabin crew personally escort you to your allocated seat if you havent chosen the pre allocation ?!

Ryanair will be allocating seats to save time on ground for the plane, it is a shambles people walking about looking for seats together that leave it til last miniute to board, this will be done to suit them, not the paying public

I came out on Monday from Prestwick , actually got to front of non priority queue and selected my seat - I prefer an isle seat and my wife prefers a left window seat which we duly got in row 7 ,although rows 3-5 were blocked off .
Shortly before moving off ,the steward asked me and another on the adjacent isle seat tomove in toallow a family with a baby to sit together - I stated I was happy where I was and there were 3 empty rows in front of me that would be more comfortable for the woman and her baby as it wouldn´t have to sit on her lap all journey .
He got quite stroppy and insisted it was mandatory despite the fact there was empty seats 2 rows in front -the argument got to the stage where I felt I was going to be put off the plane ! So I moved !
It will be interesting to see how their management of seats works out in their new system !
Liking the new Ryanair website......and thank heavens that awful captcha security code thingy has gone !!
They've also got an app for the iPhone. Not sure if there's an android one.
[QUOTE=Su1;335094]What you have described really annoys me! You see familes at the airport in the bar , having a coffee and strolling up to the plane, getting on nearly last and then they complain they cannot sit together. We have had children and we took them on a plane from under 6 mths old...we always tried to get on first, even when seats were booked. It takes longer to settle children and I like my bag where I could easily get it ,as all the 'children's essentials were in there!
Another gripe, we bought extra leg room seats row 1, only checked in a few hours before the flight and the seat next to us was empty. We saw a chap get on who was over 6ft 6 ins tall. We both commented on his height and very long legs. After we had been in the air twenty mins the steward asked us if we minded this chap sitting next to us as he was uncomfortable. We objected because he could have bought the seat when he checked in..he had not just suddenly grown!!!!! We were overuled and made to feel so mean. I wonder who had the last laugh and who were the mugs who paid the extra for comfort!
My moans of the day...feel better now. Travelling with Ryanair next week to Tenerife..........have bought an extra leg room seat!

What you have described really annoys me! You see familes at the airport in the bar , having a coffee and strolling up to the plane, getting on nearly last and then they complain they cannot sit together. We have had children and we took them on a plane from under 6 mths old...we always tried to get on first, even when seats were booked. It takes longer to settle children and I like my bag where I could easily get it ,as all the 'children's essentials were in there!
Another gripe, we bought extra leg room seats row 1, only checked in a few hours before the flight and the seat next to us was empty. We saw a chap get on who was over 6ft 6 ins tall. We both commented on his height and very long legs. After we had been in the air twenty mins the steward asked us if we minded this chap sitting next to us as he was uncomfortable. We objected because he could have bought the seat when he checked in..he had not just suddenly grown!!!!! We were overuled and made to feel so mean.

Been browsing through the new site and although I have not needed to book a flight yet I see no place to claim residents discount. Am I doing something wrong ?
Checking in for flight on the new site...seemed to take me ages , probably a few seconds (!!) to find the 'travel without insurance' (we have annual policies)..eventually found it listed alpbetically amongst the countries where you are resident! I think it was under D for dont insure! Maybe i'm a bit slow!

Just returned from another faultless journey there and back but you just have to wonder about some people, we arrived at checkout there was about 4 or 5 lassies with ALL hand luggage overweight then 4 adults who pitched up with suitcases not checked in moaning about having to pay, come on it cannot be any clearer when you are booking about the luggage rules its no like they hide them when you are booking:doh:

Totally agree with the "young families" comment, my husband and I have choose not to have kids even thou all our friends have recently etc , we choose when boarding a Ryan air flight to not sit near babies and baby screaming lungs! (Yeah I'm a moaner! But had far too many flights made unbearable by babies) now firstly I think its unfair to fly a tiny baby with the air pressure in their ears (its hurts my adult ears at times and I remember as I child how it hurt) I think its inconsiderate of parents and there babies to fly them "just for some sun" would it really hurt to see some of lovely Britain on holiday until the child isn't going to be in pain, and no ones telling me that the scream the babies do while flying isn't an in pain scream.
And if they do decide to fly with a young family do not think you are not included in Ryan airs queue and rush for a seat. If you NEED to sit with your baby /family etc - buy priority OR get to the front of the Queue not relax on the seats til last minute then cause a stir until some poor bloke that used his common sense and got his seat is forced to move .
Every time it have flown with Ryanair this has happened and the person sat in front or behind a baby there face drops because they know they will have to listen to the screams..... And even more dread the family with a baby and a 4 yr old who will kick you all the way and put the tray up and down 549 times whilst in the air and the parents will ignore this because the baby is screaming

While I totally agree with you this problem is not exclusive to Ryanair. Twice in the past we have been moved to accomodate families who were late boarding.
Not on Ryanair flights. Once on a flight to Turkey we were moved and put in the last row of the plane in the most uncomfortable seats imaginable and the second time we were asked to move I said I would not move if they were putting us to the back of the plane. And dont get me started on the child who kicks the back of the seat. :duh: But I supppose our holidays are worth it:lol: ...................

Good god I bet your fun to live with!
it would appear that Ryanair have cottoned onto the trick of making 2 bookings, one for each leg of the journey, rather than booking a return to save money.
Those will remember that prices were the same in £ as €, so booking the Tenerife to UK leg separately you could make a saving as it would be in €.
Factoring in the exchange rate it would end up lower than the £ amount - if you understand what I mean.
Now the TFS to UK in € takes into account the exchange rate so it is significantly higher than the £ rate, no more savings this way, at the moment its just as cost effective to do the out/return in the one booking.

Instant cure for seat kickers
I have always thought leg belts should be available on flights so you can tie the charming little s..ds legs to the seat.
Also what about those inconsiderate older fliers who tend to sit one person at the window and one in the asile seat. The pile up the middle seat with papers and coats etc. Nobody takes up the middle seat and surprise surprise that seat is left empty and they have bags of room. Why not make the seat kickers sit in the middle seat.
Anyone else know of anymore anti social habits practiced by the Ryanair Frequent Flyer Brigade

Slightly off topic - i.e not Ryanair, but I was on a long haul flight to the USA recently and had 3 kids sat in the row in front of me, youngest around 5 eldest around 14. They were completely out of control, yelling, arguing, and jumping around. I was amazed that their parents didn't intervene, it was only later in the flight (which was 9 hours!) that 'mum & dad' appeared, and it finally dawned that whilst we and the screaming kids were in economy, the parents were up front in business class! Now that really was annoying.:angry:
On a very busy flight last year from Spain to the UK a young 'lady' travelling with a very young baby in her arms was sitting at the window seat a few of rows in front of us.
The last on the plane was a young spanish guy and was looking for a seat when one of the cabin crew, keen to get him seated, showed him to the empty seat (the aisle seat was taken by someone else).
The 'lady' with the baby protested to the cabin crew that nobody can sit in the empty seat as she needed it for her baby and to give her some space on the plane.
The cabin crew asked her if she had she paid for the empty seat and she said no but then she got very aggressive and angry, to the point where if she continued her layers of makeup would cracked and fallen off of her face.
The poor spanish guy didn't really know what was going on and was clearly very embarrassed by being the centre of this altercation. He passed us and went to the back of the plane and found a seat.
The 'lady' gave one of those 'I've won' sarcastic type of smiles.
The young 'lady' had won.

Although in hindsight guy was probably better off moving but I agree some of those travelling with kids need to get better organised and not continually play the woe am I thing they chose to travel with kids. There you go bah humbug !! Merry Christmas:doh::lol:

probably did, it was just her attitude and aggressiveness - not a very nice person, maybe that's why she was travelling on her own !
I have just booked a Ryanair flight and see you can now set up an 'account' with Ryanair to help speed the booking process.
You provide your static details ie name, address, payment card details etc and when you come to book your flight you logon to your account using your email/password that you have previously setup - haven't done that bit yet but will be booking another flight in a few days.
The option to logon / setup the account appears in the top right of the screen once you have the results of a flight search.
Well it was too good to be true!!!!!!!!!!Ryanair new policies.
Just tried to book flights for May and noticed the standard seat charges have gone up from £5 to £10 per person per sector. Anothe r£40 per booking for two people
Have not compared the luggage prices as we always go hand luggage.

Yup! However, it DOES say in their terms and conditions that seat prices start from £5 per person per journey so maybe it is less on shorter flights? Personally, I don't really care... I've booked my favourite seat for my next flight! :D :p :D
Hi, you could 'pretend'to book a flight and when choose your seat comes up have a look then to see whats available.
We had our first 'seat allocation' flight a couple of days ago and it did seem more relaxed process than the normal scrum when on board. Queuing at the gate was still a case of elbows out and watching for those who are about to push in front of you !
We had to get a bus to the plane, priority boarders were already on the bus when we boarded it, we dutifully stayed at the rear door to get on the plane from the rear steps when the bus arrived at the plane.
It was only when we got to the plane and they only opened the front door of the bus did we then realise that the priority payers were 'encouraged' to move to the front of the bus as the rest of us got on it - so they got some benefit from paying a little more.
They must have moved loads of hand luggage to the hold prior to people boarding the plane as we didn't have the usual lack of overhead space. I know they say the first 90 keep there cases on board and they rest go in the hold - maybe they did this on our flight as it was very noticeable there were no issues with space at all.

We rarely pay more than £50 each way. My hubby's flight end of April was £70 return. Not booked seats or bags but he doesn't tend to bother. I like to know where I'm sitting.
Just come back early in week and flew out with Easyjet and prebooked regular seats for £3 each, although it is free on check in but they automatically allocate.
If it wasn't for RA we wouldn't get out to Tenerife as much. Thanks to Uncle Mickey

Yes that's true AJ. He got rid of the monopoly that the other airlines had. I remember our first Christmas we paid £270 each with bags. Makes me shudder thinking we can go twice at other times for that price. Was out last week with my Aunt. £50 out with Easyjet and back £49 with Thomson. Could have had cheaper RA ones but times/dates suited us.
Got to wait until May now, but got a trip to NZ next month. Flying Emirates.

Rubbish anything can happen after the vote. England might get peed off paying for Wales and NornIron, and could itself resign from the UQ leaving HM homeless.....in Wales.:(

Prestwick winter schedule hasn't yet been released, but I've just printed my return flights for the 29th May, so Ryanair's new 31 day check in works.
Now all I've got to do is remember to be at Prestwick airport at 4am on Thursday!:)

I just looked on Skyscanner for Tenerife to Prestwick on the 21st November and got quite excited when it opened up with a Ryanair flight, soon got deflated when I saw that it was via Dublin and a 14 hour journey!:cry:

Hadn't noticed that before, (must have MISSed it) but yes I believe Ms is the correct option. It's not on your passport whether you are a Sir, Dr. Rev or plain old Mr, so don't se it making any difference.

Anyone know why Ryanair have taken off the fights from October onwards from bhx and east mids ? They were on there yesterday
green1960
08-05-2014, 12:59
They will come back on later today probably, I think it is when they are loading new flights for new airports, they take them all off. Bristol and Luton had not been loaded up to yesterday, so this might be why?

If we pay more than £100 return on flights to Tenerife then it's not a bargain. Can't remember last time we did. Last few times have had £35 each way.

Opps I've booked with Easyjet for March 2015, only £46 from Manchester. £3.50 for reserved seats too.
Has anyone booked the new business class yet with RA? It's more or less double normal price but includes everything including changes/premium seat/20kg luggage/PB etc
It reminds me of Easyjets flexi fares.

Just checked some flight of ours from bhx and it is available but at a huge expense , we usually prebook seats £15 although no extra legroom available apart from front row , it's a very good piece of creative wording 'business plus' , no guaranteed extra leg room , no gratis drinks/snacks no wifi ,no ryanair airport lounge and if you turn up after the first 90 people have boarded you probably won't be able to take your hand luggage on , business class ! I think not just another fiddle

I've just this minute booked return flights for my wife and myself for April 2015 with Ryanair, Prestwick to Tenerife,
Total cost Including, Extra Legroom, Luggage £375:35 which I think is a good price.

Monarch aren't the best, whenever we travel to TFS are always showing delays.
Hope I'm wrong though as travelling out with them Thurs from Manc. Come back with them in Dec. I'll let you know.
I still prefer Ryanair, don't mind Easyjet though when I get a good deal.

When you look at how few planes some of the airlines that are listed, you can understand where the ratings come from, the smaller amount of planes that are operated by a company the easier, then it should be easier to give customers a better service, but certainly larger companies can give you a better financial deal and more backup flights and I would think that as holiday makers that are some of our main priorities.
Swiss Air. 300. Planes
Ryanair. 1150. Planes

Ryanair expected to announce purchase of the new Boeing Max 8 airliner today.
Delivery from 2017, Ryanair are going for the 200 seat, high density seating option, currently 189 seats on the 737-800, seat pitch on Max8 to reduce to 29inches.
i must admit we have never had a problem with ryanair,always on time and you get what you pay for,the only thing that peeeed me off the other week was the fact that they wanted us to put our hand luggage into the hold,and as it was the only luggage we had we hadn't packed them to suit this eventuality,so we had to plead to have a least one with us,because i had my i-pad-medication-and other things you need at hand while on a 4 hour flight,in the end they relented but it meant us emptying both bags and swapping over what we needed while on the tarmac,and we still forgot stuff:angry:

Yes we had to put one of our cases in the hold both June and last week. We had everything we needed for the flight with us but it caused a lot of aggro this time with folk who had children with them, most of what they needed was in the case they wanted to take on board. You were lucky they relented with yours , they didn't last week. Uncle Mickey always seems to give with one hand and take away with another , always has to do things differently.
My Missus decided to take advantage of the new rule to pack an extra suitcase - Cabin Sized obviously - which we then offered to put into the hold with the other cases, FOC Obviously -
It felt like a little win - luggage without paying for it
oh, and Ryanair were delighted!

I'm impressed with Uncle Mickey, travelled back with them to Manchester last night and much better organisation. Put my hand luggage in hold FOC too.
I went out with Monarch and apart from bring half an hour late setting off couldn't fault their service. If I didn't know any better would have said they were RA.

They are generally the ones who have paid extra for Extra Legroom, or reserved seats as the people who have selected these options are brought forward for priority boarding.
It's a option that I go for, but it's only so that I can stretch my legs out and snore & dream the hours away until we reach Tenerife!:laugh:
