Re: ryanair
 

Most odd. I checked in online with Monarch, didn't pay any extra. Is this a recent change?

Re: ryanair
 

So, back to Ryanair.

Hows it working now. I'm off in October with them. I have a hold bag this time. Presumably I will be printing my tickets and boarding passes off ... where do the bags go now??

And ..... I know I'm being lazy ..... can we take hand luggage bags on the plane as normal as well as the hold bag?

Re: ryanair
 

:)Yep but only one per person I am afraid ,and your duty free must be in it aswell if you have any and laptop etc ,not sure about hold baggage drop ( I don't take any )

Re: ryanair
 

You can put more bags in the hold but the prices are going up, from October I think it is somthing like £20/£30 for the first on and then for the second and subsequent bags it is somthing like £70 per bag. :frown:

Re: ryanair
 

They say "drop off point" for hold bags. This is the check in desk.
No tickets to print, just boarding passes. If there is more than one person, it will be the B pass that has the hold luggage on it that you will have to show at check in.
1 hand luggage per person but it must fit in their little measuring device.

Re: ryanair
 

how long before we fly for free & they just chage for our luggage:eek::rofl:

Re: ryanair
 

Then I'll send my hand luggage by DHL

Re: ryanair
 

:) I have flown free before ,its just the sodding taxes :D

Re: ryanair
 

I saw an article yesterday stating that Ryanair was making an extra 548 million, Yes, five hundred and forty eight million pounds a year, out of its little extra charges like luggage in the hold and other perks.
A nice little number no doubt.
Should go a long way towards paying his fuel bills I would have thought......:thumbup:

Re: ryanair
 

:) Just a little update on Hand luggage ! I was flying out of Gatwick on Easyjet on Friday ,and they requested that all passengers that checked in online had to come forward and put their luggage in the the measuring frame ,and if it didn't fit ,bag had to be checked in at cost of £16.00 .

Re: ryanair
 

Ryanair place all large looking hand luggage in the measuring frame at every UK airport. Last time I came through Malaga they checked any 'suspiciously' large looking hand luggage as well. Do not think you're safe if you have a small carry on case - ryanair's max size is smaller than many airlines.

Re: ryanair
 

I too generally travel with carry on luggage only, but what I object to about the online check-in fiasco, isn't that they make you check in online, it's that it's obligatory, yet they charge you an extra €5 for it. Or €8, or something. I too like to check in online so I can go straight to security and not have to bother queuing at the airport, but it's not right to make something obligatory, then charge for it.

I'm going to try not to fly with them again if they've made the carry on luggage maximum size smaller. My only carry on case is the exact dimensions of all the other airlines maximum size and is perfect for short trips.

The amount of money they are making is obscene, but I guess you have to admire Michael O'Learly for being so totally upfront about it. He admits freely that he's in it for the money and doesn't give a toss about his passengers.
