Ryanair has revolutionised this industry. They brough low cost travel to the masses in Europe
Maybe I am a snob and anyone is entitled to do what they want but a bit of decorum is needed in some situations.
Couldn't wait to get off that damned plane!!!!

I wouldn't exactly call it a revolution, but they have brought lower FARES.
I really insist on the word FARE, because they also brought high bag prices, low bag allowance, stupid fees (check-in), credit card... it's like well you can fly for very cheap with us, but unfortunately you have to pay extra to be able to actually buy your ticket, and you have to pay extra to actually be able to fly, since you have to check-in as well.
The result is, other airlines can't really compete so they do similar schemes... ok up to then, but then ryanair realises they are as cheap/expensive then others, so they do it again, lower bag allowance, increase the check-in fees, increase the bag fees, just to get lower FARES.... !!! FARES are illusion of a cheap price. If you add all their **** things, you're better off flying BA, as you even save on the travel to the remote ryanair airport.
It's time to wake up people!!! Don't fly Ryanair if you need to bring your bag. ONLY fly with them if you've got a prepaid MasterCard, and plan on having no bags. Then it's worth it.
I would say though that they're a bloody good airline in terms of Aircraft. I wouldn't mind working for them, they've got a brand new fleet, and don't pay too badly. O'Reilly is just the little **** in all this, cuz he's driving people mad, very slowly and carefully to cut corners everywhere, whilst people aren't seeing it! What's the result, by the time we see it it's too late, it took over an entire route, drove other carriers bust, or made them do the same thing with their extra cost. NOT GOOD. I think we need a choice. When I need to fly with bags, I'll fly someone else, if they still exist!

Who me? I'd quit flying and go and do something else before working for Ryanair. Without BALPA working for a lo-co would be unbearable.
Like the vast, vast majority of airline pilots flying jets for other airlines - I wouldn't piss on O Leary if he was on fire.

smith... what exactly do you mean wake up and smell the coffee... do you think money grows on trees? are you an idiot? do you know how much pilot training costs these days??
its quite obvious really youve failed the ryanair assessment..
now this thing about "buying yourself a job" i went to ryr assessment recently with 2 guys off my course, neither of them were offered a job, not amind how difficult it is to be called for an assessment..
you are not an airline pilot.
in three years when i have 2000 hours on a 737 you will still be hanging around your flying club watching the jets..
so to sum it up.. yes i will be smelling the coffee coming from the galley of a nice new 737-800.. mmmmm

I have had my run ins with Smith and I have challenged a lot of his posts.
However I think he is an airline pilot. I also don't think he applied let alone failed a Ryanair assessment.
Pigs might just be creating lift before that happens.

Well go around I read nearly all his posts in July 2008 he was still pretty much training. So unless he got a job in the last year and a bit. Who is hiring? He will tell you himself nobody!!!
