Ryanair tickets

gary the great

hey i wont to book flights to brussells but i dont have accsess to a credit card.

Does anybody know where i can go to just buy them with cash?
(anywhere but the airport its so far away!)

I heard the usit office?

I'd say it'd be easier to find someone with a laser/visa, and just give them the cash.

Not the answer you're looking for but I don't know.

AFAIK they only take credit card bookings.

Alot of travel agents will book it for you and take a fee....try a local travel agent as i know a couple in Bray do this for people who have no access to debit/credit cards

yeah, you sometimes see that travel agents have a sign up saying they do ryanair though or though they prob charge a good bit to make up for commission! I have seen a good few in Dublin

I believe you can pay cash at their ticket desk in Dublin Airport (and I presume Cork, Shannon, and Knock as well).

samo

I didnt know that, thats a good tip to know!

They'll fleece you if you turn up on the day and try to buy tickets......

Only if you are buying on the day. They don't like handling cash (unless it's an excess baggage fee).

Roger. Wasn't sure what limits they put on it, I remember it coming up a while back when there was some controversy about Ryanair charging a credit card handling fee. Good to know.

steel someones card, use it, then put it back along with the amount of money you charged to it

On a related matter, going to Glasgow in December and Ryanair and Aer Lingus have similarly timed flight with only four euro or so in price difference.

Thinking of going with Aer Lingus just because they seem more reliable....

Anyone any other thoughts or preferences?

There's always the risk of an Aer Lingus strike...or a Ryanair wing falling off. Tis a lottery.
