Michael O'Leary on innovation

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.

Their headline price is usually cheaper, but by the time you add the hidden extras there is very little difference, except for the terrible service and horrible seats.

Just like the other cheap airlines, in which case ryanair comes out cheaper overall. Don't tell me BA is the same price even with extras at ryanair... If so you must have a very special deal with them.

Tell that to Mr O'Leary who is now being forced to backpedal his attitude as his airline is now starting to suffer with disappointing financial results due to extremely poor customer service.

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've flown from Shannon (Ireland) to London for €0.02 charged to my credit card a few times. Sure, it's rare, but you can get them some times. I agree with you on normal flights it's often not that much cheaper. Though over here in West of Ireland we're lucky that any airline bothers with us so I'm grateful.
