Flew Ryan Air at the beginning of the year...wasnt so bad leaving Stanstead as we got on the plane first (had offspring with me) but at Baden Baden when we were called up first to board all that really meant was getting on the bus first before the rest of the hordes piled on after you!
Honestly...how farken hard is it to have a allocated seating plan?
The other thing that bothers me are the dolly birds who work on these planes...I bet that if anything hit the fan that none of those pretty girls would be able to get the doors open on the planes! Seems the hiring policy is to go for looks ahead of ability (sort of what I look for as a manager! ).

I could drive to Beauvais much more easily and quickly (and cheaply) than get into Paris and then out to CDG. Prestwick is easier for driving and for trains than Glasgow too. And for international direct flights to Scotland, you take what you can get.Comment

Channel 4 versus Micheal O'Leary
Channel 4 .....
The programme also claims that the reporters, Charlotte Smith and Mary Nash, “encountered a staff culture with a somewhat dismissive attitude towards customers, which seemed to be based on the premise that if a customers pays next to nothing for a ticket, they should expect nothing”.
O'Leary's response ....
“Channel 4 can shove this programme up its jacksie,” said O’Leary. “There’s nothing in it.”Comment
