Brilliant. Have they considered a charge for oxygen?

The man is an idiot.
"No one in history has ever got on a Ryanair plane with less than a pound"
I'd like to see him prove that.

He looks like he needs a bottle in a brown paper bag and a bench in the park.

Damn, cant see the video - bloody work firewalls!!!!

I imagine teh content though! Will they also charge for lifejackets? Probablility of you needing one is low. So lets charge people who are not prepared to take the risk - a tenner? That way they wont need to provide as many.

BAck to toilets - buy something that is less than a quid and pee in that - or is that what the sick bags are for? :lol:

I have been on more than Ryan "We'll Pull the Fillings Out of Your Teeth as You Sleep" Air. I have often not had any money on me - as I was using cards.

If I am forced to use them again and they bring this preposterous idea to fruition I will take an empty bottle with me and leave a filled bottle when I disembark. Whether I put the lid on id dependant on my mood that day.

I wonder if the little sheet on the head rest is a good device for wiping one's @r&e? If so I may also bring a shoe box.

I just noticed Iceman's sick bag idea. Would it be wrong to put it back in the magazine holder on the back of the chair after you have finished twoing?

The magazine holder might be a bit cruel on the person in front. Maybe give it to an airstewardess as she passes, or even leave it in the aisle as a bag for them to pick up before landing :lol:

Um....there are no magazine holders on the backs of the seats in front, MOL did away with them a while ago :mrgreen:

I guess it saves weight and is cheaper?

There are always your own pockets....they do ask you to take your rubbish away with you )

I have never flown Ryanair nor will I in future. O'Leary is the type of person that instantly irritates as soon as I hear his name. And watching his weasley face on Breakfast this morning really set me up for the day. :twisted:

I wouldnt use them for a ski trip I dont think. Not economical despite their silly initial prices.

He's testing the 'water' and dependant upon outrage will look to introduce this in the future.

He'll then look to charge for the oxygen, or maybe he'll investigate standing only aircraft.

Ryanair were once great for cheap travel. They now rank only a little higher up the scale than Sir Fred Goodwin and our government.

Perfectly legitimate airline but their style of marketing doesnt appear to me.

i have flown with them about 4 times, two of these times i paid literally 2p. absolutely nothing more than that. no taxes, no nothing....2p.

Cant complain about that!

(but wouldnt use them for a holiday, just to take advantage of going to Dublin for 2p!)

If flying Ryanair into Girona, for access to the Spanish Pyrenees and Andorra, beware of over enthusiastic hand baggage weighing and measuring. I have read that Ryanair now enforces the 1 piece of hand baggage on board to include items purchased in Airport Shops. If you can't get your bottle/ciggies/perfume in your 1 bag expect a tussle at the boarding gate with the dreaded " bag gauge" being utilised to increase Ryanair revenue.

I noted that the Ryanair checked in baggage scales at Girona are very unusual, in that you bag going home seems to weigh around 5 kgs more than it did going out, with nothing extra packed in them.
