refunds on flights-ryanair
Hi. Has anyone got any experience of reclaiming the baggage and tax portions of their flights. I've booked a different route for my journey also with Ryanair. But of course they don't make it easy to re-claim for the original flight. Anyone negotiated this one successfully before?

Re: refunds on flights-ryanair
Think you will find in their small print that they won't refund. Basically what they do is use the'administration charge' as the get out clause. In other words, the charge for administering the refund by some miracle of their computing, usually comes out to more than the refund is worth.
In other words they won't send you the cash (£50) because it will cost them £55 to do the paperwork!! Now this wouldn't matter even if your charge was £50 or £500, their admin fee would always be slightly more!
