    They should have had a day of free flights, it is the 30th birthday.

    Terrific price Johnny but those fares were always available. My brother flew to leeds and back last week for 19.98 as well. Just I couldn't find those fares on any route I checked out. Maybe just me and the routes I was looking at. I can see the 9.99 fares easily enough.

    Despite the advertised fares "starting from 19.99", 9.99 to UK destinations that have competition (flybe or Aer Lingus) is the norm.

    Hello,
    Ive a ryanair question.
    Am due to fly with them Friday, and will have to check in a bag.
    Can I just check in as normal (online) and then pay at a desk in the airport?
    Thanks!

    Will be dearer at the desk.
    You can go to manage my booking and add a bag.

    If you check in online, you state 'bag' or 'no bag'. If you pay at the airport, you pay much more that checking bag & paying on-line. For me, it is a no-
    brainer.

    If your unsure how to add a bag get onto their online chat service and the agent will do it for you, send you a link and you pay online.I increased the weight on a return journey this week without any issue.

    Ryanair aren't the ârseholes they used to be. We (family of four) flew out of Dublin the other day and when I was at check-in (we were checking in the buggy), The staff asked me if I would like to check in any of our hand luggage for free. So I said yes, thank you very much, and checked in the lot! Didn't cost me a penny. Must be a new policy?

    Aerlingus did that with me going to Tenerife. Both ways infact!

    Works both ways, great for you and also great for anyone who was just taking a small carry on case, more room on the aircraft. Ryanair now only guarantee the first 90 will get the carry on bags on board. (EasyJet ony guarantee a carry on bag that fits under the seat, the 'bigger' size carry on bag is not guaranteed with them) Sterling has put paid to trips with EasyJet for the moment.:(

    Yeah it's great they do that now! It helps save space in the cabin and suits those who don't need the bag with them during the flight.

    The last few flights I have been on with Ryanair I actually asked could I put the hand luggage in the hold. They were only too happy to oblige. Its grand for going through security and not lugging the bag around whilst doing a bit of shopping. :)

    watch out for ryanair currency exchange rip off - was booking one way flight from bristol to dublin , price was 35.99 sterling but went to pay and website converted it to 53 euro i then un-selected the option and paid in sterling via irish bank card and low and behold 50 euro was removed from bank account.

    Rip off of 3 euro? Those bastards! :rolleyes:

    Google currency converter converts 39.99GBP to 55.11EUR.

    Don't know how you got 36 sterling for less than 50 euro. 55 would be nearer the mark. That's no rip off by ryanair.

    With Ryanairs flat pricing model, I always uncheck the currency box as I book singles and get a better bargain when converting from £ to €

    It's often cheaper to not use a seller's rate and to allow your card do the exchange. Applies the world over with airlines, car hire, hotels etc.

    Watch out for your Bank's 'currency conversion' fees.

    Aer Lingus a lot of the time force this policy, happened twice to me now going from Schiphol.

    I didn't want to check in the bag as I don't fancy waiting around when I land, but they said it was necessary anyway even though my bag was within the carry on dimensions.
