The constant upselling is annoying, I agree, but it’s not like the charges are hidden. I like Ryanair for the same reason as seosamh.
I tried to find some competitive fares with Ryan air, failed every time, once they get close to other airlines they fall off the radar, the headline prices were never worth believing so just moved on and left them well alone.
Coincidentally I’m currently sat in an airport about to board my 10th flight this month, I value price, value and reliability over most things, add in a decent loyalty scheme and I’m there 🙂
There was a similar story in the papers last week about a woman who had a huge bill for uploading photo’s on her mobile while on holiday in Turkey, calling for outrage etc. Why bother it’s what you expect to happen.
