Ryanair Flight Review is part of the #NoCollusion, No Albania for TPOL where I break my 100 country count mark. See the World Map for where I’ve been.
I have read and heard so many bad things about Ryanair. I expected a charge for anything and everything including the oxygen masks. Instead, I found no hidden charges. Yes the plane is cramped, and yes there are no complimentary snacks. But for $50, who cares? If the price is right, I can endure the misery so long as I get to my destination promptly. In this case, I did. And that’s good enough for me.
Ryanair complaints seem to center around flight cancellations(they don’t have great capacity to fix these), and people who don’t read the fine print and didn’t realize they were going to be charged for seat selection, carry-on etc. or who are upset that they use outlying airports.
I was super nervous the first time I flew, but, even paying for a carryon and a seat, it was so much cheaper than any other options, that it worked out great for me.
