"why such inconvenience"
Jim McEwan (United Kingdom)
Birmingham to Fuerteventura with Ryanair return. An airbridge was used both ends going to Fuerteventura. An airbridge was used in Fuerteventura for boarding coming back - but on landing back at Birmingham at 2245 had steps down to a very, very windy tarmac followed by many steps up to an airbridge not 20 yards away. Why put people to such inconvenience at that time of night?

"Ryanair seats are tight"
15 reviews R Arab (Poland)
I've flown with Ryanair a few times. This flight from Warsaw to Madrid on had something unpleasantly memorable for me. I was sitting in the back (28 or 29) in an aisle seat. The flight attendant who was in charge of the back was a man, a strong and big one. The space between Ryanair seats are tight and also the aisle is not a wide one. Thus it was very difficult for that flight attendant to move. I never forget how he (unintentionally) hit my head with his elbow when he was trying to move in the aisle serving drinks to passengers. To my surprise, he didn't even turn back to say sorry. He might not have realized that he ever hit me! To cut a long story short, Ryanair can change the space between seats in order to host more passengers as long as the passengers are informed beforehand (like their rules about printed boarding pass), but their employees ought to fit in their technical amendments and measurements!

"not the best for this route"
A Relf (Belgium)
Copenhagen to Charleroi and Ryanair is not the best company for this route. Was late 30 min - the same three days before when arrived to Copenhagen. We stayed one hour standing and waiting to board after the control of the tickets. Without any explanation both times. So if you want to be late, you choose the best company for this route. The plane didn't have a table in front of the seat, very poor service. And also in the Copenhagen airport is at gate F almost every time, far from the entrance.

"very glad we tried them"
Mike Smith (United Kingdom)
Flew Lanzarote (Arrecife) to Manchester in November. Ground staff were outstanding, checked in our bag for free due to us forgetting to do it before hand. This left a very good impression. Cabin crew were friendly, they came though the cabin twice with the snack trolley. Seats were ok, a bit tight on leg room, but enough space to move your legs. Overall impressed with Ryanair, and very glad we tried them and we will surely consider then for my next flights.

"Fantastic value"
Michael Thomas (United Kingdom)
Away on time and arrived at East Midlands in very blustery conditions, pilots skillful landing drawing applause from a full aircraft. Didn't eat or drink onboard but cabin crew genial, bag stored on floor in front of me. Total cost £30.98 return. Fantastic value, A to B travel, do what the booking form says and eat before you travel.

"all sorts of hidden fees"
Nasim Sabet (Canada)
You think it costs less to travel with them, but they have all sorts of hidden fees that will surface eventually. Just had a horrible incident flying from Berlin to Barcelona. They charged my friend and I, 45 euros each because we did not check in online. Not only the hidden fees, but also the rude attitude of their employees made this the first and the last time I'd ever consider traveling with them.

"unimpressed to say the least"
Emily Stewart (United Kingdom)
Really very poor. Ryanair flight from Stansted to Lisbon was delayed by 20 minutes at first, then we were ushered onto the flight very rudely and told to speed up in order to meet departure time. Only 1 person to board the entire flight making it a slow process despite being rushed. They then missed the second departure time by 3 minutes due to slow boarding (not the fault of the passengers but the fact only one person was checking boarding passes) and we were then delayed a further hour and a half. Not even remotely worth the cheap prices. Unimpressed to say the least.

"annoying to book online"
J P Murphy (United Kingdom)
The usual rubbish with Ryanair. This is now the third time I have booked a premium seat and 5 days out I cannot print a boarding card as "there are technical issues". It is just very very boring that they cannot get their technology right. For goodness sake just copy what other airlines are doing and stop trying to be to clever. Ryanair are the most intensily annoying airline to book online.

"utter chaos on board"
R Wisbey (United Kingdom)
First the positives of our flight with Ryanair - the fare was cheaper than a return train trip to London (as long as you do not check bags or purchase goods on board). The negatives (which mainly focus on Stansted). Absolutely useless ground staff, once the departure gate was eventually flashed up on screen we joined the heaving mass crushed onto the little shuttle to the gate for a mad dash (due to the short notice). Once we arrived at the lounge, we were met with total chaos due to zero management (none visible). Queues were criss crossing each other and people were getting most upset. I asked one of only two staff checking two different flights (no other staff were available) which queue was which, to which she replied, "I don't know it's all over the place back there". Once we got to our desk, the lady checking us did not make eye contact, she simply looked at the pass glanced at our passports and said go through, an opportunity for a security check missed. After walking across the cold wet runway we got to the plane to find out that the back door had only just been opened, so of course earlier boarders had had to use the front door, which of course meant utter chaos on board. Anyway a second security check was missed here as the girl checking our seat passes only looked at one. Come on Ryanair, you seriously need to sort out this appalling issue. Who is to blame? The airport or the carrier? I will not be using Ryanair again.

"cannot ask for better value"
47 reviews Colin Pay (United Kingdom)
Stansted to Gothenburg. Flight was on time, and aircraft was not full so had a row of three seats to myself. I only carried hand baggage and did not make any on board purchases. The flight cost £10 plus £5 to pre-book a seat you cannot ask for better value than that. Crew very good.
