Mots flights between the UK and Ireland booked in advance are around 5 euro anyway, so no massive saving there. I hope it's on ALL flights, as I need to book a quick summer break.

*One way, excludes taxes and charges

That's from the Ryanair website

should be across the board, not just ireland to england, some nice trips to venice, rome or poland from shannon, with plenty of flights from dublin.

faceman

Ah its only one way.

These often turn out not to be much of a bargain as it first seems:
They still usually exclude busy periods (weekends, holidays)
and normally 90% of the total price you pay for ryanair tickets is the fees, charges, taxes, levies, credit card booking fee, baggage charge, priority charge, etc etc so you wont actually be saving much

cast_iron

Yes.... but you could say it's about 500,000 return flights!

drdre

It wont make much difference as tickets are 0.19c each way at the moment so im only saving 38c.Thats so annoying as they advertise so much but its really all crap.they still add there charges and taxes.:mad:

Yeah i was going to book a flight to manchester and would only say afew cent.thats not even a saving. But i really have to say that ryanairs adverts are great.

As everyone has said before: it excludes taxes and fees etc which a lot of the time make up 90% or more of the price anyway and it excludes weekends and peak periods. Have been looking at a flight to Rome in the summer (unfortunately my dates aren't flexible as I'm going for a wedding) and the price has actually gone UP (I'm going on a Wednesaday, coming back on a Monday). Similarly, two weeks ago I booked a flight to Spain and paid 19cents for the actual flight (plust taxes, fees, etc, which came to 58 euros in total). That same flight is now 1ct... on the way over. The return is now 49 cents... I would have been 10 cents worse off if I had waited.

It's just one of Ryanair publicity strategies.
