There was a news item a couple of days ago about several LoCo airlines (Ryanair, Easyjet, Thomsonfly and Jet2 were specifically mentioned) being rapped over the knuckles by a regulator (OFT?) for continuing to break some rule about advertising fares before taxes & charges. They said they were sory and hoped to be compliant soon, or in one case 'by the end of the year'.

Browsing through the sites of these and one or two other airlines, I note that all headline fares now include t&c's. RYR prices now start at £10. Is this a new thing? I'm sure there were one-penny offers knocking around just a couple of weeks ago.

The same seems to be true of European sites, my Polish isn't great but Wizzair prices ex Poland seem to be t&c inclusive too.
