    Ryanair mulls charge for toilets

    Is it just me, or does that Michael O’Leary really need a slap?

    Well, I din’t know that. But what a cheek. I hope Ryanair aren’t allowed to introduce this. utterly stupid. What if you have a bladder/bowel problem, and need to visit a toilet frequently? Or pregnant women? Or simply don’t have change on you? Are they going to actually refuse someone use of the loo, simply because they don’t have a pound? I don’t even think that’s legally viable.

    Michael O’Leary definitely deserves a slap. Going on about how you’d have to pay to use toilets at Liverpool St or wherever; it’s 20p, and there are other options nearby, which are free, and the attendants will let you in, if you are skint and desperate. I think they have to, actually. No such options at 30,000 feet.

    Pish on the seats. They’ll soon open the bogs for free.

    Saw it this morning – he ran rings round that pair. Makes that other irritating self publicist Branson look like a convent school nun…

    They might make money on people going to the bog, but their drink sales will plummet.

    Charges for use of toilets annoy me in any context. I prefer people to use toilets than not. It is one of the achievements of our civilisation that raw sewage is not a major feature of public life. If keeping it that way means that someone picks up the bill for toilets to be free at the point of use then that is just the price of a world free of the stench of human waste.

    All this talk of costing a pound to “spend a penny”… How much are they planning on charging to drop the kids off at the pool though? I’m wondering if the toilet doors will be on a coin operated meter, like some electricity meters, where once your pound expires the door pops open for all to see you, trousers round ankles, grimace on face curling one out!

    Yeah, I heard about it weeks ago from a mate who works for Ryanair. I’m not sure what to think of them really. As a business, it regularly wins awards and it’s one of the busiest (and most profitable) airlines in Europe. O’Leary is a really good businessman and a breath of fresh air in these politically correct times for just cutting through the crap and saying what he thinks. He’s still a cock though…

    Imagine a decade ago telling someone that you’d soon be able to fly to Eastern Europe for £15 return all in, they’d have put you away in a padded cell!

    Mmmmmm. I see an opportunity selling Adult incontipants at the airports they land in.

    There are automated public toilets in London where the door opens after 15 minutes or something. I think it’s to make sure that gentlemanly love is kept brief and to the point.

    I reckon he was taking the p*ss (sorry), he had a sly little grin on his face as he was saying it. It’s great (free) publicity for him, so why not fuel the fire a bit?

    This is a joke right? Seriously? What next? You pay for heating or a seat ‘with a view’?

    Honestly, this is a joke? Its an awful PR disaster if they leaked this to see the reaction.

    In the light of the remarks yesterday about the non-heroic pilot of the A320 in the Hudson, perhaps they should levy a non-crash charge for those flights that manage to land successfully ?
