butpau,
While I don't share your view totally, I'd like to commend you on an excellently argued and written post.
What Ryanair have done is bring the competition more into line on pricing ... thankfully not on service provision (yet). Having been a frequent user of Ryanair's services for a number of years, I've had enough of clapped out seats, filthy interiors and sullen 'service'. I don't even bother checking their website anymore, secure in the knowledge that reasonable fares are available elsewhere. Even within my immediate environment, I'm not alone in having taken this 'market driven' decision.
