"You get what you pay for"

(Ireland)

Verified Review | Flew Ryanair from Dublin to Glasgow. Nothing to complain about. 1 adult and 2 teens to Glasgow just cost 50€, so great value for money. 12€ to prebook seats. Don't expect to sit with your family if you don't prebook in advance. You get what you pay for. 2€ per person each way is great value. Staff were friendly both ways. Plane and seats were meh, what do you expect with Ryanair anyway.

"hand pick the rudest staff"

(New Zealand)

Verified Review | Edinburgh to Dublin. Nothing but grief and trouble from the start - extras for everything. We are pensioners not geeks and the Company refused to help stating' Do it online'. Very rude staff at Dublin airport and in several, poor English skills. We were so traumatised by the whole event we return with another airline. You can't say you get what you pay for because its not much to start with. Never use them they must hand pick the rudest staff in the country.

"I would fly with Ryanair again"

(United Kingdom)

Verified Review | Rome to Stansted. The flight was fair and reasonable. Firstly, I booked on the basis of cost and secondly on their flight schedule. The equivalent flight on BA at similar times was much more expensive. They charge for drinks and snacks but it was not a rip off. Flight attendants were polite and presentable. Seating felt a bit cramped but it was a 737. Flight out landed 15 minutes ahead of schedule but the return was delayed 45 minutes at the gate at Rome Ciampino. This is a small busy airport consisting of one terminal and one runway, which I would now try avoid at peak times. In summary, I would fly with Ryanair again and its worth checking out your flight schedule options from different UK airports to your chosen destination, with Stanstead being their main hub.

"Staff were good again and friendly"

(United Kingdom)

Verified Review | First time with Ryanair, so having read all the reviews I was slightly worried. However the trip to Alicante from Manchester was a surprise. It was a newish plane with comfortable seating not reserved and reasonable legroom for a six footer +. Staf were friendly and not at all pushy as I had been led to believe. In all a pleasurable flight. Return however was different as it was an older type plane and although we had prepaid for seats on the return leg, they were extremely cramped and uncomfortable. They reminded me of the old "cattle class" seats when airlines didn't consider the customers just got as many on board as possible. I couldn't put the tray table down level as it was balanced on my chest! Staff were good again and friendly. If I book again I would need to know which type of aircraft it was before making a booking.

"a blatant money making venture"

(United Kingdom)

Verified Review | Would never fly Ryanair again. Flew from Manchester to Rome. Despite checking in early we were allocated seats at opposite ends of the plane. When I phoned up they then 'sold' me the seat next to my husband! I understand that if you want to guarantee sitting together you need to pay for a seat but this is just a blatant money making venture. And the flight was late. Would not use again.

"I was one of the last to board the plane"

(United Kingdom)

Verified Review | I just wanted to warn potential passengers on this route (Corfu to Birmingham with Ryanair) not to bother with priority boarding as they simply send you outside to queue in the sun, along with those passengers that require assistance. They are making you wait for a bus to take you to the plane. Now my experience might not be typical but the wait was quite long during which time a second queue formed alongside the original. When the bus finally came the priority boarders were slowed down by those that required assistance and the second queue piled on. I would like to point-out that I did not pay for priority boarding however I managed to get behind them in the first queue. Despite this I was one of the last to board the plane.

"a good airline, no hassle"

(Poland)

Verified Review | I am a frequent flyer yet this was the first time with Ryanair flying from Warsaw Modlin to Brussels CRL. This is a good airline, no hassle and straight to the point. Great mobile app. The only downside is the website, there are some lags with the search engine, login bugs and it wouldn't cost anything to make it more visually appealing. Generous luggage allowance compared to Wizz Air, no luggage checks or anything. Cabin clean, although certainly not elegant, generous legroom and I'm 191cm tall. I'd fly Ryanair again.

"will try to avoid them at all costs "

(Ireland)

Verified Review | Have flown with Ryanair a few times at this stage and from now onwards will try to avoid them at all costs as they are probably the worst airline after United. They come across as a low cost airline but they make up for it in as many ways as possible. If you want checked baggage it is an addition a fee of approx €35 each way for a 15kg bag! If you don't have a boarding pass before arriving to the airport they will charge €50 to print each one and their latest trick is to try and get people to pay for their desired seat allocation. If you don't want to pay for your seat allocation they will purposely split you up, myself and my partner were about 10 rows apart on our way to Palermo and back from Dublin. We know there were many others in the same situation including families with children. On my return flight I even had a free seat next to me. Seats don't recline on the planes and there are zero complimentary refreshments including basics like water. If you're flying from Ireland, just pay slightly more to fly Aer Lingus as at least with them, what you see is what you get.

"forget luggage in the cabin"

(United Kingdom)

Verified Review | Manchester to Milan Bergamo. Seats apart if you don't pay Ryanair's fee, and forget luggage in the cabin unless you pay for priority boarding. And this is the second time they ruined a holiday for us - first time they simply stopped flying to our destination from the airport we had booked to fly from, costing me car parking charges and hassle of arranging an alternative holiday not in term time; second time they lost us the first day of our holiday by putting back the departure time by 6 hours - a useful ploy to get them around the three hour delay EU compensation rules. I vowed not to fly Ryanair again. Booked to Austria with Easyjet and they have also started the seat charges too.

"extremely rude employees"

(United States)

Verified Review | I implore others to avoid this airline at all costs. Do not be swayed by low prices as you would be better off walking to your destination. I have flown many airlines over the past 40 years and the worst experience I have had with an airline goes to Ryanair. If I would have been smart enough to read reviews before booking tickets from Stansted to Edinburgh, I am sure I wouldn't be typing a review while on holiday. Nickel and dimes are more like 20 - 100 $ to Ryanair and you will pay or you won't board your flight. No customer service, extremely rude employees who would obviously rather be somewhere else.
