Just flown Ryanair for the first time in 10+ years. No complaints, great price and on a route no one else serves - NCL-ZAD.
however, i do have an observation…
have flown TUI and Jet2 numerous times over this time who have both emulated Ryanair but they appear to do the onboard sales much better. I’ve never experienced either of them run out of anything, in fact it always appears that they have enough to feed everyone.
NCL - ZAD was flown by Lauda Europe and the trolley only appeared after about an hour in the air. They had no sandwiches and very limited drinks. A crew member said they didn’t fill up at NCL as they were based elsewhere and had sold a lot on the inbound flight.
Flying ZAD -NCL thought the bar would be fully stocked but agian they ran low really quickly and didn’t have the duty free item that I asked for.
a long post just to say if profits come from all of the
ancillary sales they don’t seem that bothered when they run out. TBH on a NCL flight the bar trolley can usally make a few appearances and sell
something but in both cases here was just one.
is this the norm with Ryanair/Lauda??
