* Ryanair * Ryanair * Ryanair *

Ryanair flights are two separate flights.
So not really return flights. Don't see why you cannot have different bags on each leg

You can if you book two separate flights. If you book a return trip you can't.

It's starting to bite ... in order to fill up those planes to 96% capacity they're having to drop base prices to €7.99 flights.

€2 less than there previous minimums, still another €4 to go to make up for the hand baggage charge.

We're now down to €5 base fares...

Just on board now. Priority Queue was huge. Far bigger than non-priority. Granted there was still a good few sitting.

I imagine there's a limit for priority for each flight? Isn't it 90 bags they can store overhead? So will Priority be unavailable after 90 people have booked it?

Looking at flights for next year and priority was cheaper than checking a 10kg bag.

No one knows the limit for how many priority slots there are. 90-100 has been suggested.

I think it was 90 but increased to around 110 now as well.

Im flying with Ryanair this weekend. Only have a normal sized backpack to bring with me. I normally put it under the seat on front of me as its only a short trip.
Will I be ok with it?

Do Ryanair have USB ports on their fleet yet?

Nope. Are the newer planes supposed to have them?

I had two refunds from Ryanair last week for charges I hadn't noticed (because they were PayPal) from bookings that didn't go through on Black Friday week. Took two weeks. Will pay more attention in future!

I booked return RA flights on the 4th Dec to Berlin for march. The money was pending for a week, then dropped off and is now back my acc. I contacted them twice and they said the transaction has gone through and the booking is confirmed, but bank have said otherwise, I’ve the booking ref and everything confirmed. Has this ever happened to anyone? Really don’t want to show up at the airport and there’s a problem.

Who do I contact if Ryanair CS have been unable/unwilling to deal with a complaint satisfactorily?
It could have been resolved in two minutes if the original CS rep was aware of the information on her own companies website !

See if you can manage booking ie book a seat ( you don’t actually have to do it, but on the other hand if do you can check in, I thin 90 days before flight)

I had a car hire issue with them, essentially they confirmed they would refund me
for paying for an upgrade at the rental desk and two months later I still hadn't been refunded. I simply stayed on the call until they resolved it, took about 45 minutes, each time they said they would call me back I'd say I'm willing to stay on the call until someone who could resolve the issue was available, I must have been put on hold 10 times, promised callbacks at least five times but I refused to hang up, they wouldn't hang up either and at the end the came back and said refund had been processed and I'd have it in a few days, which did happen.

That has happened to me with other airlines. They will suddenly take the money without warning within a few days.

Think it's just rentalcars.com doing the Ryanair Car Rentals... Ryanair themselves aren't actually doing anything other than showing it via their website

I'm no fan of ryanair, what with all the add ons, but I just went to buy a gift voucher for aer lingus there now, the fee is €9, WTF! . Thats 18% on a €50 stocking filler. F*** that, stick a 50 spot in. Ryanair is €2 fee, but gift named must travel on any booking, not transferable.

A Dub in Glasgo

I could never understand buying a gift voucher for an airline - I seen the adverts for them when buying a flight and thought no way would anyone buy one

Vouchers often have restrictions, some of which are 'a bit silly' and as noted are bad value. Cash with note 'this if for a trip to...' usually wins.

joeysoap

Vouchers for airlines are bad news. If you give a voucher for €50. And they find a flight for €29.99. And so they buy priorit and a seat and it still comes to say €45/€46. They ‘lose’ the balance of €4/€5. As tricky posts - give cash.

Not enough staff to cope with checking in bags, so have reverted to the old system where you bring the bag to the runway yourself. Which is a right pain in the butt if you’ve packed what you expected to be a checkin bag.
