Look Aloue, I'm really not claiming that everything is as it should be when you resign from Ryanair, we all know of crew that the company has tried to screw with notice periods, bonds etc., leave not being allowed to be used towards notice periods and so on. If you work here then unfortunately that's what you come to expect. If interpol1977 had asked for other pilot's experiences on quitting Ryanair then fair enough, it would have made quite an interesting thread, I presume. But come on, how feable is it to ask how to resign from a company, I say again what the hell does he think you do? 
interpol1977 the other replies to your stupid question were posted by people who probably took pity on you. I do wish you the best of luck with your new company & remember to have the balls to make some of the decisions for yourself.

Hmmm..
In all fairness to Pulp Fiction I thought exactly the same when I read the question... IF there are issues over and above the normal protocols that exist when you leave a 'normal' company then perhaps you should have written that in your question. Everyone (most of us) try to help out on these forums but you've got to give us a bit of a 'heads up' and can't expect us to be mind readers of your particular situation.
To ask straight out 'how do I resign' is going to be viewed as a bit niave by most.
However...
Very sensible to cover your backside in this instance if the reports are true...
Good luck wherever you're going and I hope you get the situation sorted.
Just trying to put a balanced point of view....

Resigning at Ryanair is simple. My housemate did it. He had to wait in a q of pilots in the back office in STN for Peter Bellew. One of the pilots in the small office with PB was in tears. PB gave him a bull**** fatherly chat and did a 10 year financial projection on working at FR or at his new airline. He came home and decided to stay at FR. He is just in the final stages of his command course. Better to leave FR I guess as a Captain than as an FO.

Actually from what I hear its better to leave as an f/o. Problem starts that on one hand you get paid more as a captain but its all the strings that get attached and that each year management will give on one hand and take with the other. In the end you will be no better off and more than likely have taken year on year pay cuts in real terms or erosions in T&C's regardless what management say. But you will be on more than an f/o at another airline and that is where the problems start. Leave to take a pay cut or stick it out at FR. Hence why jumping ship is better until at least there is a massive regime change and FR employees are valued and renumerated accordingly.

I would be inclined to post the Notice to the attention of the Managing Director at the Registered Office and record the delivery. All documents delivered to the Registered Office are considered 'delivered' in the legal sense of the word. Ignore the know-alls who know **** all!
It's so straight forward that it's beyond my comprehension that he has to post on how to resign from Ryanair. It's like this interpol1977, you can, 1) either hand in your letter to PB, 2) hand your letter in to your relevant Base Captain, 3) post in your resignation to Personnel in Dublin using recorded delivery. Keep a copy of your letter & the receipt for yourself then if Ryanair deny having received your resignation you have proof of posting etc. Get a signature if you hand it in in person if you want to. What the hell do you think you do? Hand it in to the Lithuanian stewardess at the back of the bus?
It's just so bloody simple to resign from FR that the question, IMHO, is ridiculous. "Ooh, there was an FCI about it." Next we'll have people who hold down responsible jobs, in a well respected industry asking for an FCI on how to chew gum & walk down the street! You know, it's no damn wonder that MOL, and others like him, wipe the floor with us, it really isn't.
As I say, ask for people's experiences once they've handed in their notice and fair enough, a possibly entertaining and informative thread but the question just smacks of totally pathetic and limp wristed to me. Sorry but there you have it.
