First of all they fly where I (and hundreds of others) want to go and don't deposit me on the runway at breakneck speed over 100km from where I want to be. Secondly their staff are friendly towards their "carbon based load statistics" and thirdly they are reasonably priced into the bargain
Fourthly, and perhaps most importantly from the point of view of the sustainability of their business model - they failed to make any money.
If Ryanair are supposedly such a bad outfit, why do 1) Passengers continue to return to flying with Ryanair 2) Pilots continue to attempt joining the company 3) Ryanair staff not complain about the allegedly terrible working practises and their supposedly tyrranical boss, O'Leary ??
The tendency to make irrational and ignorant comments on Ryanair threads never ceases here on pprune. That's a real shame.
