    you do the searches on the free flight dates offered...

    you get the flights free but for the dublin-> eindhoven route you still have to pay 40euros taxes


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,389 ✭✭✭✭Saruman


    you pay tax regardless of route.. but i cant find free flights!! The cheapest i get is 1C.. not much but its not free :D

    I hate RyanAir - just got back from skiing after being ambushed by the fokkers at the airport(s). Baggage limit is a measly 15 Kilos now. The excess baggage costs were almost as much as the bloody flights. What's worse is I was getting connecting flights (also BucketAir) from Stanstead and also on the return, so I got charged 4 times. Motherfokkers. Not to mention that the flight to St. Etienne was diverted to Lyon, whereupon the plane simply parked for 3 hours with the Captain giving us "um.. I have to ask my supervisor"-type updates. 3 hours before we could even get off the stinking plane and go hire a car at Lyon. Pathetic. No wonder FokkerAir have no customer complaints dept. - it would rapidly eat up their profits.

    They should charge for the 100,000 free seats and instead use the money on treating their customers like something other than abusable cash fodder. Michael O'Leary can rick mah bahs an soch mah coh. Aer Lingus now rock. All is forgiven. You can even pick your own seats prior to check-in (great when you are as magnificently tall as I am)

    Eh, Law of Contract: Offer (ryanair showing prices), Acceptance (you clicking on a flight) CONSIDERATION (that 1c. If you didn't pay the 1c, then the contract would be invalid, and ryanair wouldn't have to accept you as a passenger on board)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,389 ✭✭✭✭Saruman


    You know that you are now covered for delays and stuff in Europe right? They have to give you certain things even compensation which may be worth more than flight.

    From the sire "*Exluding airport taxes and charges"
    Nice spelling there. Typos are fine on boards but not on a company website! :D


  • Legal Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 5,400 Mod ✭✭✭✭Maximilian


    Haven't checked it out but I doubt it would apply as the delay did not cause me financial loss. did I mention Michael O'Leary sucks balls of boys under 16 and I hate RyanAir



    ( **Legal Disclaimer** the author in no way warrants or asserts that Michael O'Leary of RyanAir sucks the balls of minors or covers them in peanut butter. All references to Michael O'Leary should be contrued as referring to a parody of Mr. O'Leary, existing in the mind and in Canadian Websites, where he sucks balls of minors and covers them in peanut butter, often saving unlicked balls for later, lest his appetite be spoiled)

    Dublin to Paris - One Way - 18th May - €16 including taxes! If you wanted a return flight it would cost less than €50 incl taxes. A holiday to Paris for the price of a night out. :)

    1.75 bus to town.
    4 euro night link home.

    5.75 left so remaining 44.25.
    10 pints at roughly 4.40 each.

    If you have a few cans before you go out and ten pints while out thats a night out! (Maybe 60 euro if you go to a place that requires you pay in)

    You mean the baggage limit that is clearly stated when you book? The one that has been 15 kg for years? That one? Try READING next time.


  • Legal Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 5,400 Mod ✭✭✭✭Maximilian


    eh, no, I think it was 25k, like most other airlines.

    Most other airlines dont have a 25k limit and Ryanair has had the 15k limit for ages AND it is written on their terms and conditions.

    €50 in drink money is 12 pints. If I brought €100 I'd spend it, if I brought €50 out I'd get away with it and have just as good a night out.

    Yeah, it is now but who reads stuff like that. Are you sleeping with Michael O'Leary or something, FanBoy?
