I think it's ridiculous!! But what else can you expect from Ryanair?!!!
Oh dear.... The bus too common for you dear?
If Ryanair is so ridiculous then so is likes of EasyJet, BmiBaby, and all the rest of the LoCo's. Hell, my friend in BA is based at a major London apt and she still has to arrange her own transportation to and from the base. Stop overs as far as i know, have a car waiting for them and taking them to the hotel and back.
Would you like a red carpet too to walk on when you get out of the car?
