Is it in Ryanair livery? Or does Ryanair Sun have its own livery?

Did it crash, do a go-around, a missed approach, squawk 7700 or what?

Why the condescending remarks ? . The thread starter was simply highlighting a new development to the RYR business that's differs from what we've seen before. This may be worthy of further discussion on this forum by other curious individuals.

That's not normally like you Harry. I know little of Ryanair Sun, however more facts would be welcome, and as others have asked, will it benefit from a new image and colour scheme?

Many thanks The96er, it was all in the subject line (so I thought).

The apparent first flight of the new subsidiary,Ryanair Sun, was carried out by SP-RSA from Wroclaw to Warsaw (MM airport).

It was a Boeing 737-800 (probably a dash 8AS or a dash 800W) twin-engined airliner and it was operated on the Polish aircraft register.

Poland is....

I guess I had better stop now.

We do like a larf, don't we!

I'm with you Harry, another RYR event that I couldn't give a hoot about!

Get off your high horse RAFAT. I'm no RYR fan either. Never flown with them and never will. However, what the OP posted is valid news for this forum. If you don't give a hoot, don't read the thread!

You've missed a genuine Aviation Experience ............... and regretfully it's the future of commercial aviation

I took the comment by Harry as an amusing dig at those who normally accuse of RYR of those things - not that he himself was making the accusations.

If the day comes when RYR (or their product) is the only option left, believe me that will be the day I stop flying! ;)

RYR her product got “better and better” last couple of years..

The European legacy carriers are only getting “worse and worse” last couple of years..

KLM is now going to do a “test” at Schiphol on european flights to board 737 also from the back..

That'll be interesting on a rainy windy day as they decide NOT to use the finger. Given that KLM has allocated seating what difference does it make? In days of yore, when boarding via a finger, it was done rear rows first, then mid section etc. I asked KLM gate staff why this was stopped. They were too young to remember. However, at one of their foreign outstations it was still done. Worked a charm. Sometimes the old ways are the best; so says my grandma.

How much do you want to bet? :) I can assure you that I will never fly on RYR or any airline which promotes their type of product. Don't misunderstand that as meaning no LoCo carriers. I do fly on LoCo carriers, but I'm very choosy which. And if push comes to shove, I have plenty of countries around me easily reached by car (I have no Channel to cross).

They already do this at various outstations. MAN is one where they board through the Airbridge and the bag steps similar to how BA do it at MAN. Turnarounds are approx 10-15mins quicker.

So who will book a Ryanair Holiday? I can imagine the hotel and the extras like window, bed linen, toilet paper, view, curtains etc. I bet you'll be able to book a sun lounger though. And the transfer, split from your family and paying to put your bags on the bus. I don't trust the man and I certainly will never trust the product.

Well thanks to Ryanair I have taken many flights in the past for next to nothing to places I had never heard of before and they opened up Europe to a different level, many of those flights have been day trips, and I have no need for any extras thus keeping the price low.

Although I don't use Ryanair for anything other than a day or two away their cheap flights have allowed me to add so many new destinations on my map some of which I would probably never have visited if it wasn't for them operating there.

But in saying my loyalties are with BA being a BA Executive Club member.

Although the airline has it's faults it serves it's purpose and I often find Ryanair a good option for a cheap flight in between my BA flights.

Its not a Ryanair holiday, they, well Ryanair Sun, is just providing the flight on behalf of several tour operators. TUI amongst them.
