How is it bad value when you getting what you paid for ?
So that leaves next year, which again, to get back home means being tied to one airline and again means going via Bologna or Marseille (wrong direction, added expense of an overnight stop unless the flight times change), meaning a voucher is next to useless for me too.
Getting what is paid for means flying on the originally scheduled sector as the originally scheduled time. Ryanair haven't been able to do this, meaning that in fairness here, they owe a refund, as they can't offer the flexibility of their competitors in booking options on most of the routes we'll use.
We are all crew here, and flexibility is key to most of us due to how we work. Being able to get both flights done in a day in both directions vs an overnight stop in 2 directions where the operating carrier only operates 2 days a week on each isn't flexible at all, and although Ryanair may be used on 1 of the 2 sectors for this, there's no guarantee.
Once again, with a potential decrease in flight prices looking very likely, I very much doubt we'll get through £200 with Ryanair even in 2 years for now. If we do (and if the 'voucher' prices are the same price, which we know from experience they likely won't be if their re-booking process is anything to go by) then I will openly apologise.
