I wonder when Ryanair will start charging for hand luggage? Don't laugh, if MOL can get a bit more money out of you then he will. When on-line checkin first started you automatically got free priority boarding. Now you have to pay for it.

How many passengers can a 737-800 carry? About 160? Is there space in the overhead lockers for 160 regulation-sized mini suitcases?

You heard it hear first.

Yay! Can you imagine? Loads of people wearing big overcoats, all pockets stuffed full of t shirts and underpants!

Seriously they will have to do something. There is so not enough room for 160 regulation sized carry on suitcases in the lockers. Perhaps they'll reduce the size of bag allowed.

I bet you it has crossed his mind
I suppose when people threaten to loose weight before their holidays they may try a little harder

I have just got back from Marrakech - took only hand luggage on my Ryanair flight as did most people and the overhead storage space was packed. Hopefully it has all been worked out but we were sat at the back and our luggage was some way down. Could be tight. I just wonder when they are going to check size and weight?

I have to say I like the arrangement - this is the second time I have done on-line check in and taken hand luggage only - and it saves any queuing- straight through to passport control. Was not able to do on line for the return from Marrakech and expected to have to pay up for checking in on our return but was not asked for anything. I don't remember paying for the return when we bought the tickets. We have been able to arrive slightly later at the airport too. We did have our hand luggage weighed on our return.

Flights have always been on time although I still hate the scramble for a seat and there are always a number who arrive late often with kids so there has to be a re-arrangement - I feel sorry for the cabin staff who have to try and sort this. I still don't understand why they won't allocate seats - easy to deal with it via computer - in fact like others they could make money on it.

Priority booking is pointless in Italy. I feel a bit sorry for all the folks I see that get called out first for priority and then they realise that they get to sit on the airport coach for an extra ten minutes until it fills up with non priority and they all get dumped at the plane steps at the same time so they never actually get onto the plane first at all.

I have seen that happen at a lot of places, they are usually stuck so that they are the last off the bus.

That's true - all the stand up passengers get off first.
