A friend of mine flew Ryan Air from Liverpool to Riga in Latvia because FR offered a GBP0.99 fare! With taxes it cost him & the Missus about AUD12.00 each for the return tirp which included checked baggage allowance (I forget how much).
Other pax weren't so lucky because at the airport they found out they received zero checked baggage allowance and had to pay 'excess' for whatever they checked in.
I don't know whether that applies to all Ryan Air routes or just some but I hope it's not a sign of the times to come down under!
