Hey Monty,

Glad you went to great detail to point out that on average ezy fares are lower, one presumes thats because they're a low cost airline!

No-one here is suggesting low cost is not a good thing, I've taken a number of flights which haven't cost anymore than £5 each way if you dont include the tax and the airport charge and the security charge and the bus fare to the nearest city and the cost of a burger at MacDonalds (which is more expensive in an airport departure lounge than on the high street) and a cup of tea ( of which I think ryanair makes 8% of its proffitt from selling the highest priced tea in Europe - thats a quote I read in a book One time).

I think the main message of this thread is shop about, you can get all sorts of fare's on all sorts of airlines ( maybe price fixing was a good idea, at least you knew you'd pay the same fare on all airlines!)
