Ryanair set for £8 flights to US

"Economy class will be very cheap, around 10 euros, but our business class will be very expensive," he said in a newspaper interview.

Er, as a buy of such products (business class airfares to the US), can someone explain the business logic here?

Why would I suffer the ignominy of flying Ryanair for a higher price to destinations that nobody want to go to than of the BA or Virgin Air on the routes to my actual destination?

I flew Oasis to Hong Kong - it was very cheap. No suprise when they went bust.....

Does there have to be a context?

Well, yes there does.

Diver posted a comment, and AtW replied to it, yet his reply didn't make sense.

Eg.

Diver : Jacket potatoes are nice with beans.
AtW : The roundabout has a crisp packet collection on it.

You see ? The response bears no relation to the assertion.

It's like watching Eddie Izzard.

I will never ever, ever, ever fly Ryanair.
It doesnt matter if the flight is £8, £1 or 50p. I dont care if it is f£cking free!

The service is appalling, the staff are morons, the passengers are treated like cattle and they sting you with hidden charges that ramp up the price of the ticket to that of a decent airline.

I remember joining a long queue at Mallorca airport where every person checking in found their miniscule "hold" baggage was overweight. Instead of making people rejoin the back of the queue, the staff (and queue) waited whilst each person removed items from their luggage and put them in their hand baggage (cause apparently you can have as much hand baggage as you want).

It took 2 hours to check in. My bag was "overweight" by 2 kilos, even though on my inbound Easyjet flight, it was fine. I couldnt be bothered unpacking, so I gave up and paid the £50 or whatever it was.

Did I say I hate Ryanair. I think we need to start a Ryanair "hate thread".

They'll be weighing customers next.

Check In : "I'm sorry Mr Smith, but unfortunately you are too fat to fly."

Mr Smith : "Eh ? What ? I'm only 78 kilograms"

Check In : "Indeed you are Sir, but our policy is no overweight bunters over 75 kilos"

Mr Smith : "Well in that case, I'll just remove my jacket, and shoes, trousers, boxer shorts and shirt and then I'll be ok then."

Check In : "I'm sorry Sir, but you cannot fly naked. That privilege is reserved for the Captain and the Flight Crew. That's why they call it the "cóck-pit"

Mr Smith : "That's all well and good, but what do I do now ?"

Check In : "Well, if you have any other removable weight about your person, such as car keys, a mobile phone, an iPod, or some such, you can always redistribute these to your carry-on luggage"

Mr Smith : "Ah yes, good idea. I'll be right back". <scurries off>

Mr Smith returns, beaming with pride, carrying a shopping bag.

Check In : "Ah Mr Smith, if you'd be so kind please to step on the scales".

Mr Smith obliges, and the readout displays 75 kilograms.

Check In : "Excellent Mr Smith. I take it your personal belongings are in the carrier bag ready for stowage in your carry-on luggage ?"

Mr Smith : "Aye. All 5 kilos of freshly-laid turd meat. A real whopper. It were a cracker of a curry last night. Have you got another bag, this one seems to be leaking..."

Maybe it's like the trains. £8 just gets you on the plane, but no guarantee of a seat. They can have lots of people standing in the aisles and around the doors.
