I wanted to book a flight this June. BA came out cheaper than both EasyJet and RyanAir.

No idea why anyone uses them but then as long as it keeps the riffraff away from me, I'm fine hehe

NB: I know one can travel very cheaply on those budget airlines but those low fares never seem to be available when I need to travel, even if I book 6 months ahead.

Unfortunately, the braincell deficient also travel on other airlines

Should have got jailtime in my opinion.

On a £22 flight to Tenerife I was surprised everyone didn't join in.

We went couple of years back, and are going this May again, had a few drinks in the lounge, couple more on the plane and very little urge to have a punch up.

Its weird, are they particularly aggressive normally ?

Was speaking to a lad a while back who worked cleaning planes at Manchester, they had a plane out of service for a bit after a couple down a bottle of vodka and then used it as a weapon, blood everywhere.

Yes, have a drink but no need to get utterly hammered, have a think whether you want to get to your destination ffs.

Ryanair serve a purpose. I've had a few flights where I've regretted getting on. But they were mostly full of posh school kids coming back from skiing holidays.

Being a wker isn't the sole domain of the lower classes.

If you like 'people watching', you honestly can't beat Ryan Air. It's almost as entertaining as Weatherspoons.

Only been on one Ryanair flight, long time ago. Leeds to Dublin.
There was some kind of rubber seal towards the front of the engine nacelle that was flapping about in the wind. Told the stewardess and she scuttled off to report it to the pilot.
The return leg to Leeds was the last time I flew with them.

Given the price that Ryan air charges for in flight food, is that not the chav version of Caviar and champagne?.

Either way, I'll never fly them, ever unless there's no alternative. Road trip included.

€11 for a hot roll, tub of Pringles and a drink, €12 if you want a ready meal instead (and their lasagne is actually pretty good IMX) EasyJet want £9 for basically the same thing. Given their reliance on in-flight revenue, they’re never going to make the food ridiculously expensive
