Of course their is not the element of having to train out different SOPs but it isn't their problem as they aren't paying for the training. They also would not like to have to bargain with people to entice them across to Ryanair from other airlines using proper Ts and Cs.

After all, people without money can't keep on playing. Snot nosed little 18 -25 year olds who have trained on the back of mummy and daddies home seem to defy this rule however......but for how long? I guarantee not forever.
