Ryan Air 20 euros boarding ticket scam

[pmeswani]

Before you know it all the Ryan Air check in staff will be trained to speak only in Aramaic, and will charge £20 to translate into English

Do Ryanair charge customers to use their queues yet?

When they start charging £1 to spend a penny and I'm short on coins I will stand up in the middle of the aisle on the plane urinate on the carpet and charge Ryan Air for literally 'taking the p*ss'.

They aren't going to charge for the toilets. Just flown back from a short break with Ryanair and you get what you pay for. I have no complaints. When I wanted a bit of luxury earlier this year I flew Singapore business class on the A380.

As it happens I booked online check in then forgot to do it - my own silly fault so I expected to pay - I think the woman at the ticket desk was a bit surprised when I coughed up cheerfully. That said it is a bit mean to deny you the chance to print it and then charge. I had no problems printing my return leg boarding roll er.... I mean card.

I simply won't fly Ryan Air - because their chairman is a complete wnaker and their policies are a farce. It's an airline, not a bus service.

In November I tried to board a flight at Stansted using a Ryanair boarding card I had printed on my PC. Unfortunately it did not print the barcode, so was sent to the checking desk. They printed a new boarding pass for me. No charge.

That was last November - after that recession really hit and air traffic dropped so "inventive" lads like that Ryanair boss started finding new ways to make up for "cheap" prices they charge...

It is fairly new I think, see this article here:

Personally, I think that anyone who uses that airline gets what they deserve.

Who do I complain to ? (I mean not Ryan Air)

Complain to your wife. After all she is the fool who married a tight git.

I'll never fly them again and I'll be dancing on their grave when they piss off enough people they go bust (Fingers crossed anyway).

Honestly, Ryan Air + Children = your worst nightmare. They treat their passengers like scum at the best of times, but try flying them with children and they truly are awful. I loathe them.

Never again _ i would rather pay more, and do regularly, then fly Ryan air. Though when you work out the costs after factoring in all the invisibly charges they're actually not that cheap!

yep.

It's cheaper if you print your own boarding card, so basically you are charged more to queue to check in.....

....unless you are the OP of course!
