Exactly FF, that is your choice - and I'm not criticising it. I'm just making a general point that there is a choice. Incidentally, the airline I use provide me with a substantially better all-round service (including FREE allocated seating) for a fare which is generally only between 10 and 20 Euros higher than the RYR fare. For me (my choice), that's well worth the extra driving distance and car costs (about 25 Euros).
