No need for Priority if you have Booked seats. Just sit back and relax, board towards the end and your Booked seats are waiting for you.

Normally I would never book priority or seats. On this occasion 4 adults and one 9 month old on two separate bookings, hence we booked 4 seats in a row to be together. Only the oldies booked priority. At Dublin airport we exchanged one carry on bag so that the baby would have 'stuff' if needed on the journey.(Small toys, blanket etc) As it turned out BOTH the carry on bags of the parents were taken off them at boarding and put in the hold. As it transpired there was absolutely loads of spare room in the overhead bins, but at least we had one of their bags on board (and one of our bags was now in the hold)

On the return journey the Portuguese were much more relaxed about carry on bags with the result that the overhead bins were full to capacity (and then some), however as we had priority we were able to get the bags directly overhead, which might not have been possible without priority.

extra cost: seats 4 x €5 x 2 journeys = €40 and priority 2 x €2 x 2 journeys = €8. All extra for Michaels pension pot I know but in this case, probably worth it

Make sure you've no space at the end of the passport number. This can happen if you select the autofill (it seems to add a space on mine) instead of typing out the whole thing.

Whilst checking the baggage fees this morning for Ryanair I noticed that they have low season from 05/01/16 to 31/05/17, so the new customer friendly Ryanair are living up to their word and dispensing with high season for all of 2016. thanks Michael ��, nice one

Schedule maintenance I read about the other day.

EU citizens travelling inside EU must have either passport or EU/EEA ID card. Any other combination requires passport.

Out of curiosity: since when?

It's not hard to find the definitive answer. BTW IRL-UK flights are international flights so Ryanair's international requirements apply on these routes.

Am I alone in not finding any of those €19.85 seats? No kids so pretty much free for dates, but unless the flights are to some unheard of place I can't see them. Nothing to the sun that I can see anyway.

I'm seeing plenty of flight available for 19.85 to a variety of countries.

"the sun" is far away, i.e. Spain is 2 hours, italy over 3, Marakesh 4 - well, far away in comparison to the likes of liverpool or other places in Britain which are a couple of hundred km compared to a couple of thousand to Marakesh.

If you want the cheaper flights then inevitably they are on the destinations less than 1000km (still a right distance), but somewhere like Brussels has you in the middle of the low countries with heaps of interesting places, and beers, to investigate.
