You get what you pay for
Review of Ryanair - RYR by
hooville
Advantages: Cheap flights
Disadvantages: Frequent cancellations and delays, pay for drinks, out of the way airports
...sum up my thoughts on Ryanair in a simple sentence: you get what you pay for. In the case of Ryanair, you don't pay a lot and you similarly don't get a lot.
Expect to pay for drinks on the plain. 50p for a mini sized coke. £1.00 for a orange and lemonade. Avoid mini sized alcoholic beverages. The air hostess will cunningly ask you what you would like to drink. You'll get excited and think you're on a 'real' airplane, she'll crack open the drink, ...

Fantastic
Review of Ryanair - RYR by
Ferretuk
Advantages: Cheap, convenient, friendly
Disadvantages: Stansted Taxes
...can't sing the praises of Ryanair loud enough. So where is my gripe? It is at STANSTED. Stansted ruins the efforts of the airline and all its destination airports.
I and my wife recently bought tickets HAHN - STANSTED - HAHN.
Tickets for two passengers ..... 22 Deutsch. Mark
Airport Taxes - Hahn............ 35 Deutsch. Mark
AIRPORT TAXES - STANSTED........ 90 Deutsch. Mark (Round Figures)
Can somebody please tell me why the taxes at Stansted ...

Does exactly what it says on the tin
Review of Ryanair - RYR by
licon
Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: and nasty...
...week away. Tough - Ryanair only let you have 15kg (unlike every other airline). They decide to cancel your flight and put everyone on the next flight so there's one full flight rather than 2 half-full flights - what else do you expect for the fare you pay.
Not only that but the destinations are nowhere near the main city. Charleroi, for instance, is WAY out of Brussels. So is Stansted, for that matter. And how clear is it on the website? Not very.
I've ...

Ryan Air Gets You From A - B Cheaply!
Review of Ryanair - RYR by
HannahBoo
Advantages: Cheap fares
Disadvantages: No Food or Drink (you buy these on plane if you want), not much room on plane, don't get allocated seats.
...tickets. I have used Ryanair once (in February 2006).
***DESTINATIONS***
Ryanair deal with short flights to places such as Berlin, Rome, Riga and Venice. The planes are suited to short flights as they aren't the most comfortable planes in the world, and there is little space.
***SERVICES ON BOARD***
There are is no food and drink included in the price of your ticket...This is understandable really as the tickets are so cheap. Ryanair ...

Web Buying Tip
Review of Ryanair - RYR by
jxhn
Advantages: Very cheap online booking
Disadvantages: Takes some playing with to find the cheapest
I haven't actually flown with Ryanair yet so can't comment on the experience. A few of my friends have and they recommend it - especially for the price. And this is the point! We compromise our expectations for a cheap deal. So how do we get the best deal from Ryanair? My tip is to use their web site and be prepared to juggle your flying dates. There's a huge variation in prices depending on when you choose to fly. Weekends tend to be more expensive, ...

Come fly with me.....
Review of Ryanair - RYR by
Dawnie2810
Advantages: Great value for money
Disadvantages: A bit like getting on the bus!
Now I've only flown with Ryanair the once, but really I've no complaints. Even the bit about getting on the bus!
I flew with them from Teesside International Airport to Dublin in March of this year. The seats were booked online by a friend, and even though we only booked up about a week before it was only about £90 each return. The prices vary depending on how full the plane is, so they tend to start very cheap, rise and then in the last couple ...

Cheap flights to Paris
Review of Ryanair - RYR by
pedro_delb
Advantages: cheap quick easy close to paris
Disadvantages: none
I have flown with Ryan air from Glasgow Prestwick to Paris Beavaois a couple of times and it is excellent value with the very handy flight times. Both times the price has worked out at under £60 return (inc tax) and the flight leaves early sat a.m. and returns sunday evening. The Ryan air website also has a very useful hotel booking section with (surprise, surprise) a cheap & nice selection.
When the route opened Ryan air got had some bad press ...

Just what you want
Review of Ryanair - RYR by
buono
Advantages: Low cost fares, no trade off with passenger safety
Disadvantages: Can't use computer during flight
...to get there was with Ryanair and a small hire car at the other end.
It's the second time I have flown Ryanair, having also used Go and EasyJet extensively.
Any accusations of cutting corners are rubbish. I chatted to their duty manager for some time and she explained a few things, such as certain extra procedures and safety precautions they have to follow as their aircraft are registered in Ireland. This is why you can't use a laptop or PDA ...

BECOME A MEMBER FOR AMAZING DEALS
Review of Ryanair - RYR by
Trinitytrash
Advantages: Amazing deals on cheap flights to great destinations
Disadvantages: Not always on time (but who is these days!)
Since the price increase and quality decrease in Easy Jet flights I have looked elsewhere for European travel and discovered Ryan Air.
Ryan Air offers have astounded many people this summer with tickets from £1 you have to question the sanity of those in the driving seat, but who am I to complain having taken advantage of the insanity to the fullest.
I am now on the mailing list and would suggest that everybody joins - in the past month I have ...

You pay peanuts, you get monkeys...
Review of Ryanair - RYR by
blackdahlia
Advantages: Errrr...you get places eventually
Disadvantages: See below!
...with me to Italy via Ryanair recently, and having never succumbed to its horrors asked me apprehensively: 'What's it like?'
My reply? 'You know how they transport cattle...?.'
And honestly, that is how I see it. To me, their theory is - you pay low prices, you get low levels of customer service. Often I've had rude, unhelpful orange-coloured women begrudgingly answer my questions; once without any warning one of them snatched my bag from me and ...

Cheap and Oh no customer service
Review of Ryanair - RYR by
KingHerrod
Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Does not care
Ryanair is cheap, ok advantage out of the way. But Ryanair, does not know how to treat customers in my experience they are rude, unhelpful, arrogant and disinterested in customer satisfaction. News to ryanair, price does not always win.
I have experienced delays with lots of airlines and OK, not many are that helpful, but Ryanair are posutively blaze, you are delayed, we do not care, we could fly you out in three days time, go home in the meantime. ...

Review of Ryanair - RYR by
pehchiong
Advantages: Cheap flights
Disadvantages: Check the airport!
I have taken this airline once to Frankfurt departing from Standsted extremely early in the morning to Frankfurt Hahn, a tiny airport 100 miles away from Frankfurt!!!!
Beware of the airports that you are flying into though the tickets is really cheap.Flight can go as cheap as 1 pounds only.....1 pounds only but you have to book your flights early because the price will go up when the 1 pound tickets has been snapped up. Just check carefully.
It's ...
