I think the booking system works a litte better right now (until the next stumble). But it's rather hopeless, anyway.
Hmm, I remember such a sketch from the newspaper. It's late in the morning, two boys are lying in their beds. One of them says to another: "If mummy will not come and wake us up right now, we'll be late for school". That's my feeling, I guess. I already know that the departure time of my flight from BGY to TMP is changed (moved forward; formerly 16:25 new dep. at 10:15), the day of travel is approaching and... not a single e-mail message came about that. I'm not sure if everybody will be smart enough to check the timetable...
By the way, this route (Milan-Tampere) runs very well indeed. LF's are great, the price level unusually high across the board. A hint for route planning, isn't it? Doesn't it pay better to sell somewhat longer flights [like FI-Italy, FI-Spain] for 100 euros (and more) than to try to fill planes on some other routes for desperate 1 cent total?

Ryanair Cost Cuts
Just saw on the news that Ryanair is to review all its major costs, as it
seeks savings of 400million Euro.
You know where this is going...
Get ready to pay for your flight plans guys..

Tuppence return
I agree, raise the fares.Having said that I booked 2 seats on Ryanair seat sale last week at 1 penny each way from Manchester to Bremen next month.NO TAXES.NO CHARGES (Except the debit card fee of £4)
Now while I like this !!!! It seems crazy.

Yes and even more interesting it's got an open-ended slant put on it on Ryanair's own website: http://www.ryanair.com/site/EN/news....=gen-en-260308
including the words:
Ryanair confirmed that it is reviewing all of its major costs including airports, staffing, fuel and currency exposures and this cost reduction programme will continue over the coming weeks. Since Ryanair is the only airline in Europe to guarantee the lowest fares and no fuel surcharges, Ryanair must pay for higher oil by reducing costs elsewhere.
is anything immune or sacred, one wonders?

More online checkin concern
I've just checked in online for my trip to Belfast (out tomorrow and return Saturday) and in the passenger details section on the 3rd screen, it said "details already provided" - fair enough, I thought this was for the API for Spain only. There was no option to enter passport number or anything. However, once the boarding passes were displayed, sure enough, there was my passport number! As I didn't enter it this time, has the system remembered it from my last trip 2 weeks ago? Worryingly though, it hasn't remembered the expiry date (01/01/2008 shown) and my nationality is now Irish, instead of British!
Will this cause a problem at Stansted tomorrow, or will the fact the number is there be ok? And is this normal, or another glitch?
Cheers

Go in to online checkin again and insert correct passport details this time and it should say "Reprint boarding card?" That was way old system worked so if u made a mistake in passport number or nationality you could reprint.

The header is there for you to enter your passport details but the actual space to write / change it is not - it's just coming up as a blank non-clickable space.
Hmmm... now it's just going a blank screen when I try and enter the online checkin system! Not good!

Will the Ryanair pilots have the cojones and/or the brains to stand-up to the next onslaught? History suggests not, but, as ever, they are leading the way down to let's hope they finally shoulder their responsibilities.

if you have no luck go to the ryanair cutomer services desk or see swissport in STN. The boarding pass should be denied by the gate staff if they are on the ball and doing their job properly. You can only travel web check and go by providing your passport no, even on domestic flights.
Usually the staff will charge you the £3 fee, and you'll have to take it up with Ryanair in writing. This is usually the case. I know its a system error but the staff at the airport can't just take your word for it, so they may hav to follow the rules and charge - thats normal ryanair (handling agent) practice.
Hope it all gets resolved - the new skies system is just a joke!!

Go Michael O Leary
I dont know why people attack Ryanair all the time .There is much more jobs for us pilots because of low cost airlines like Ryanair and Easyjet .They seem innovative and versitile to the coming hard times.
