Ryanair, any way to pay in euros for flights from Norway

    I need to book a flight from Oslo to Dublin in December. Ryanair will only quote me in NOK for the flight as it originates in Norway. Now their NOK price is considerably more expensive than their Euro price i.e. if I had booked it as part of a trip from Ireland.

    Is there anyway around this or do I need to just suck it up?

    Have you tried Norwegian.no? They will let you pay in either.

    I am using norwegian.no for the outbound trip. They don't have a convienient return flight which is a shame.

    If booking a return flight originating in Ireland is cheaper that just booking it one way then just do that. You don't have to turn up for the first flight, the second one will still be there for you

    Nope. Certainly not in this case. I would be down 20 to 30 Euro doing that.

    Both airlines in question Norwegian and Ryanair offer one way fares which are competitive. There is no need to book fake legs.

    The difference is caused given the exchange rates. It works out around 10 Euro dearer in NOK over Euro. Ryanair are gaining off the exchange rates.

    Guess I shall just suck it up.
