Ever was it thus! Last flight of the day UK-Ireland are often the 8th sector of the day. Even 10th sometimes. It’s easy to pick up delays and there’s no time to make them up. If the anything the delays tend to build as slot times are missed.
Sadly, this is not limited to Ryanair or Southend. Something to bear in mind when booking late flights. Don’t cut it fine with the last bus/train. You’re likely to miss it!
