Re: Ryanair Censured
Ryanair is a disgraceful airline, they ruined my 30th Wedding anniversary, I WOULD NEVER recommend them, there staff are like there boss, igorant, arrogant and insulting.
They changed there conditions overnight, and we were left stranded at the airport.

But a bargain is a bargain and all for 50P (note does not included any costs we decide you should pay even if we have not told you about them"

Re: Ryanair Censured
Sirius, I would not use Ryanair if they offered me free travel anywhere in the world, they would probably land at the wrong airport anyway, and charge you for luggage space, toilet paper, and even the soap. 0/10

That's shocking. So if she had used a budget airline rather than an expensive one, then at least she would have had the choice to buy food.
In my opinion, it is nice to be pampered, but my main aim is to get to my destination. And I would rather have the choice to buy, or not to buy food on the flight, rather than having to pay extra on the price of the flight for something I may not actually want.
I've never used Ryan Air, but have used Easyjet many times, and never had a single problem. Both of my brothers have however used Easyjet, Ryan Air, Jet 2, and BMI Baby, and both say that Easyjet are the best by far.

Not all low cost airlines are like Ryanair, but they are not as good as full servcice airlines. Anyway, that is my opinon and if you don't mind using them that is is alright. I can see we both have had diffrent experences with them

No they aren't as good. Nobody has ever claimed that they are. But if you want an airline that is just like a bus service that gets you from A to B, at a low price, then some of them are brilliant for that purpose.

I accept that a lot of people would prefer budget airlines, it just that they are not that good in my opinon, but if you don't mid using them, then it is ok
I would just prefer full service airlines setting up low cost divisions (or buying those airlines) rahter than reduce standards

Sorry for not simplifying for you. How do you setup a low-cost airline offering the same standards as a high-cost airline?
