btw - Ryanair is becoming more friendly (yes, it's strange combination, I know). Read here: http://www.ryanair.com/en/news/ryanair-rolls-out-more-custom...

Quote: Ryanair, Europe’s favourite low fares airline, today (28 Nov) confirmed that from Sunday all Ryanair passengers may now bring a second small carry-on bag (35 x 20 x 20cm) on board, in addition to a free 10kg cabin bag allowance, while its boarding card reissue fee has been cut from €70/£70 to €15/£15 for customers who have already checked-in online.

These latest customer service improvements have been rolled out across the entire Ryanair network and follow the launch of the new Ryanair.com home page, 24 hour grace periods (for minor booking errors), the introduction of quiet flights (pre-8am and post-9pm), with standard airport bag fees to be cut from €60/£60 from 3rd January and fully allocated seating (from 1st February) already in place.




Becoming more friendly... from an almost impossibly low baseline.


Boarding card reissue fee? It's been a few years since I've been on a Ryanair flight, but all the other airlines I've used recently have QR scanners now, you no longer need a boarding card to board a plane.


It depends on the airport, has nothing to do with the airline.


Holy shit, 70 pounds to reprint your boarding pass?! That's more than many short haul flight tickets. Is that a typo?


I had to check and re-check that the link was actually the Ryanair website and it was a Ryanair announcement.

I welcome the reduction of the boarding card re-issue fee - £70 is just extortionate.
