Well, once again we are flying Ryanair (Stansted is *so* much closer than all the others and nobody else flies from STN to our destination) but this time thanks to on-line checkin we are allocated seats A to D, so all is good.
Surprisingly, we've also been put in the priority queue - without paying for it. No doubt some here will see this as freeloading but just maybe Ryanair see this the way I do - getting the smalls on sooner rather than later is in everybody's interests.
