Ryanair Problems Once Again!!

[piggynose]

My girlfriend has booked a holiday to lanzarote, and is flying out on the 24march, but good old ryanair have decided that in order for her to print her boarding cards she has to either wait til the 22 march, or pay an extra cost for the privelage!!

[piggynose]

My g´friend is flying out on the 22 nd march and returning 6 days later, so she´s got to mess about looking for an internet cafe to print the return ticket. Neither of us has a smart phone so apps are out.
I´m surprised theres so many pro-ryanair people on this thread!!
i still think michael o leary is a greedy so and so.
Why should she have to pay an 10 euros/pounds for the privelage, its practically the same as speedy boarding, which is a joke.

I suggest another airline. Ryan air do this, if you are prepared then Ryan air are dirt cheap, if you are disorganised then you will incur their range of charges for those that have no idea. Check in and print before you go, hand luggage only, pay with whatever their "free" card is at the time vioila! I've had flights for 1p before, you just have to be on the ball, if you are not then Ryan air are not for you.

sorry! no smart phone, no printer! you on the electric yet?! F:F:S, is flying really for you? what about one of those nice ships, shouldn't take more than a week! No one is pro Ryan air piggy, it's just that many realise that you cannot have flights for 2 bob and expect all the add ons for nowt, you cannot have it both ways.

[ummmm]

I'm pro Ryanair. I think they are a great airline who have made travel so much cheaper.

Going back home to Ireland used to be really costly, now we can get there and back for £40. Who can knock that?

After booking online for the past few years with Thomson, I didn't read the information sent to me about boarding passes. I failed to print them before my flight (as knew nothing about it) but the staff at the airport sorted it out for me, free of charge.

Ryanair can only do flights so cheaply because they have conditions like this.
If you can not accept it then the answer is simple ,fly with another airline and pay up to 10x the price!
Is your GF staying in a hotel or apartment complex? then reception will have internet and a printer.

[ummmm]

Ryanair wrote me out a boarding pass. So much better than A4 bits of paper.

no need for sarcasm tora tora, i have got a printer, but dont see the need for a smart phone as of yet, i might need to get one in near future. as for 1p flights, ha ha.

I have been all over Europe with Ryanair many, many times and can't fault them, you just need to know the rules, I never take hold luggage only hand luggage, pay the few quid extra for a seat so I can relax and some of the prices I've paid are unbelievable, in two weeks I shall be in Palma that cost me £72 return, like I said I can't fault them, thank you Mr O'Leary. xxx

You can check in 7 days prior to flying. So she will be able to check in for the return flight before she leaves the uk. I can't see the problem personally. I gave never had a problem with Ryanair and have used them loads of times and will continue to do so.

[piggynose]

so for not keeping you updated, due to a busy week. my beloved managed to print both of her boarding cards on sunday 22march.

Good - see? No problem at all!
