For weeks, I tried to find a points flight from Madrid to Mallorca. Air Europa showed no availability. Iberia only had flights with connections. In the end, I paid $150 to fly Ryan Air direct.
For such a short flight, I have no complaints. I paid for carry on bag ahead of time and was not hassled at the gate. My next flight on Ryan Air is direct from Bologna to Mykonos. It’s going to be a bit rougher as it is 2 hours and 20 minutes. That beats flying the indirect points option.
If Ryan is on time, I have no problem with him.
