Now safely converted to HF68
Only flown with them once was okay but :

Still have a migraine from the brightness of the yellow and blue seats and that bloody jingle when you land well what can you say

My thoughts too on a flight to Alicante. Very cheesey music on landing.

Flown with them a couple of times, although the last was in 2006. Aside from describing Lubeck as "Hamburg" (which is about the equivalent of describing Oxford as "London"), I didn't have any issues.

Had a birthday treat flight to err, Barcelona by Ryanair (clap)(y)

The only trouble was that it took a 60 mile taxi trip to get there after landing in bleeding Girona (devil)

After checking in online, couldn't work out how to print the boarding pass on their easily-navigable NOT web site, so charged around 30€ to print the boarding pass at Alicante airport.

Never again.

Once and once only,flew to lanzarote,flight ok etc,but when we went to come back the bloody pilot had landed at fueterventura the day before so we had to wait a day for the plane to be brought over to lanzarote.The reason given was crosswinds,but every other airline Managed to land the previous day !! The lack of information from Ryanair was staggering,it wasn't too bad for just the two of us,but there were people with small kids and it was chaotic.We were eventually reimbursed for the extra hotel night,but we have never flown with them since and in the light of recent events I am glad we haven't.They fuel their planes to the legal minimum they can get away with and treat passengers and crew with contempt,I am not surprised half the pilots have left and although they are cheap,it ain't cheap if there isn't a plane to catch !

You go me on the alarm clock
It's a nay for me. I'd sooner fly with Monarch.

I always wondered how long they would last and mightily impressed that made it as far as today.
