Thanks guys for the info and clearing things up.
We only flying with ryanair as it was part of the offer from onthebeach. I for one won't be flying with them again its so much hassle and worry. Charges everywhere, for trivial things. Wishing we spent the extra money for the easyjet flight.
would of ironically been cheaper after this £30 extra fees.
Think your issue is with whom you booked with rather than Ryanair.
Happy to be corrected on this but I do not believe Onthebeach has a contract to sell Ryanair flights. Therefore anybody booking with resellers of flights (screenscrapers) run the risk of getting hit with extra charges.
There are any number of trip sites (not naming them) which review online booking sites and give views, onthebeach is mentioned on them.
Ryanair have always been clear that to get best fares then book with them.
