Ryan Air Cabin Baggage Allowances

Discussion in 'Lounge' started by noobie, Jan 15, 2018.

  1. You never know!
     
  2. Probably for the last 2 years but Easyjet Plus and Speedy Boarding customers get 2. As we will be flying to Alicante and Barcelona 4 or 5 times this year, I subscribed to Easyjet Plus for the first time. Booked Cartagena in March and Alicante in May and have saved £48 on premium seats and got £140 benefit from free upgrades on the hire car so far which has paid for the subscription with trips still to book.

  3. I do because my niece works near there and then drives me to Dorset.
    The 1600 km return trip to a ferry port puts me off bringing the car over there, and the bike does not like the cold English climate anymore.
     
  4. When the choice is to spend time in Ducatiforum or GS:er, there is no choice.

    As for the other... It's specifically the Ryan Air colour scheme. I have happy memories of blue and yellow as a child...

    And my favourite nation has a Gul & Blå flag too!

    The European Union is a complex debate, and not one I can easily articulate my position about in a sound bite. I'm not swayed by xenophobia or scaremongering, I'm fearful of European federation for many reasons and hugely disappointed about the terrible representation of both leave and remain arguments by politicians and the media. I'd like to see the United Kingdom remain united, negotiating fiercely to establish fair and friendly relationships with our European neighbours, friends and allies. United Kingdom should learn from successful European countries like Germany, and seek a similar mix of service, manufacturing and professional businesses with a majority of these being independently owned and operated medium-sized businesses, supported by endeavours at the governmental level to create trade conditions that allow United Kingdom to be a net exporter of goods and services with an affordable value of sterling. These conditions would span all areas from education and healthcare to border control and taxation.

    Sadly I don't see anything like this being possible, and so the options are between doomed leave or remain deals. I don't think that the previous ever-expanding European Union status quo was good for anyone, and it really was risking rattling Russia and CIS, as effectively "Europe" was creeping east, absorbing former Russian CIS / USSR states. Politically these seeds were sown at the end of WW2, perhaps even earlier (as with the "middle east crisis" - aggravated by US oil deals that empowered Saudi' driven Wahhabism and continued by global corporations until the present day).

    All of the middle-class centre-leftists wringing their hands over the leave result should look to the venomous liar Tony Blair and his signing away of UK sovereign rights with the Lisbon Treaty (nee European Constitution). Study that and marvel at how this was achieved without a referendum, and then look at how Mr Blair materially benefitted from that signature. I'd argue that if the European Constitution was signed on the back of a referendum rather than quietly ushered in under the Treaty of Lisbon then there would have been no Brexit... because had the referendum been held after making clear and transparent what the European Constitution committed UK to, and what rights were superseded by this then there would have been no signing. With his meddling in Brexit, this handsomely rewarded wraith is simply further progressing his agenda.

    If Farage was a good man then he could have won a fair and reasonable exit from the EU, because it's fair and reasonable to not want to have conceded our sovereign powers to a self-elected federal European Union government. As it is, and with the media hooting and braying meaninglessly and absurdly for all sides in opposition and support, the narrow-minded and xenophobic UKIP agenda defined Brexit. The buffoon Cameron, in an act of terrible hubris, played into this by offering the referendum to save his own neck, gambling on a historic certainty that the UK population have never before voted against the status quo on a single-issue referendum ("better the devil you know" etc.). He hugely underestimated the disconnection between UK government and population and threw our country into chaos.

    These are terrible people, making awful bets... in the wake of previous terrible people who made horrible allegiances. Politicians think they're celebrities since 1997, the media pushes corporate messaging as "news" and we're all left scratching our heads. What a mess. Whichever side you sit on, Brexit has been a disaster. Before, during and after the vote.

  7. I've never flown with them and never will. I've read enough about their attitude to customer care in the past to give them a wide berth.

    That alone would not make me not fly with them. The main reason is that I find Michael O'Leary to be a weapons-grade bell end. :rolleyes:

  12. Always thought you were only allo ed one anyway unless you upgraded, same as easyJet.
     
  13. I got one up on Ryanair when they first introduced Priority Boarding. I was travelling with my 3 kids aged 2, 7 and 9. I purchased priority boarding just for the 2 year olds ticket. They announced priority boarding for the flight, and we all gotmin the Q. Atbthe gate the naturally surly and unhelpful air hostess said we did not have priority boarding. I promptly replied my 2 year old does, but as he is only 2 he needs to be accompanied by an adult, as do all the kids, so we must all board together. She gave me the death stare....how dare anyone outwit and outdo Ryanair of their hard earned!!! But she accepted i had won the battle and we all boarded as priority passengers. Funnily enough that loophole was closed not so long after.

  19. You should only be allowed one bag and you should be happy that you were able to FLY somewhere for £20! Ungrateful bastards.

  20. I’m flying Ryanair from Milan to Valencia in March for the grand total of 21.99 Euros.

    I’m secretly hoping for a centre seat between either two Italian or Spanish girls. One of each will also be acceptable.
