"This guy is straight out of Atlas Shrugged. Notice, that this means he's doing well, the customers have more of their own cash in their own pockets. True capitalism and free market action at work: win-win-lose. Who loses? The bureaucrats who want to control every aspect of your lives."

Why would you fuck Ryan Air if they provide people with cheap flight opportunities?

Because Ryan Air makes it's money not with their "regular" flights.
They strike deals with governments to establish service(flights) to regional and "useless" airports all around Europe. Like the shit they build,on taxpayer money,all around Spain.

Last year if i remember correctly the number was about 480m EUR in subventions.
So fuck Ryan Air. And anyone who is interested to fly for 10$, well fuck you too.

Yea fuck us all because were taking advantage of 480m over a couple years. thats like not even a dollar per citizen. fuck us.

ryanair makes cheap flights across europe possible for less than have what the cute healthcare.gov cost. fuck us all.

not that i approve of governments building airports, but its not like useless airports are built for the purpose of serving ryanair. the moneys already been wasted. i might as well get cheap flights in return.

He basically took the Southwest Airlines Blueprint and bastardized the operation.

Recent news and the desire for good PR suggests they may have taken things too far in the past: Ryanair gets cuddly - easing bag curbs and charges, says Michael O'Leary - News & Advice - Travel - The Independent

Will watch the video when my internet isn't playing up anymore.

I'd rather pay $500 and sit in my seat in peace than $10 and get in-flight assault charges because some Euro "vendor" took his salespitch too far and one couldn't just "leave the immediate area to avoid conflict". The Ryanair salespeople on flights sound terrifying and like the most annoying thing since pewep.
 
For me he is 100% right. I want my airline to be:

1. ON TIME
2. cheap

Everything else is noise and bullshit. Flying is fucking boring and miserable wherever, but if 93% of flights are on time at least I will get from A to B on time with Ryanair.

Great guy.
 
Ryanair is not cheap it's a scam built around small print. The actual cheap seats are rare.

Also they are not always on time as they claim, they inflate the flight times, so a normal 2 hours flight on Ryanair states that its 3 hours so when they get in within 2 1/2 hours they play that annoying tune that they are on time again.

It's just a big scam.

I fly with them all the time. They are prob 20% of BA prices, 60% of easyjet and other cheap airline prices.

yeah, tickets aren't usually £10 like the marketing speak. But how the fuck would you expect an airline to run for £10 a ticket. They are still cheaper than anyone else.
