. Likewise, if you've never flown Ryanair you actually don't know what it's like (regardless of whatever grudge you might have against them or whatever you may have garnered from hearsay). In my case I gave, for example, EI many chances to convince me they were worth it but my actual experience has always been awful and so I hardly ever fly with them for that reason and also because of the worry and stress of inevitable threatened industrial action near flight time. I need a reasonable fare, a certainty that a flight will take off barring something unavoidable like weather (or now ash), some degree of punctuality and be treated like a customer when things go wrong. I haven't got that with EI whereas FR have always turned up trumps. The whole BMI experience has also gone downhill except for their magnificent cabin crew and I don't use them much either nowadays.
By your tone I doubt you will ever fly Ryanair but, like the Marmite, you are not really qualified to comment on the product until you have actually sampled it a few times.
