...except that the 'cheap' ones aren't any more (or less) dangerous than the 'expensive' ones. I would contend that Ryanair's no more dangerous to fly with than Lufthansa, or BA, just less comfortable. Most people are prepared to trade discomfort for a really cheap airfare over a less than 2 hour sector. I think the Ts and Cs for Ryanair are sufficiently competitive for them to be able to pick the flight deck crews they want (can't speak for the cabin crew!)

Yes, I realise that it's perceived that it's legislation that makes all the airlines 'toe the line' on safety.
