And Ryanair’s “Priority” boarding service just means you get the privilege of standing around on the tarmac in the rain and cold for longer than non-Priority customers.
Other added Priority perks include being stared at disinterestedly from inside the warm, dry aircraft by the cabin crew, and being allowed to bring a bag that every other airline allows you to bring for free.
- dabeeeenster 2y agoI can never understand why people pay for Priority boarding! Would you rather stand on a runway/in a gangway tunnel/sit in a plane seat as opposed to sitting in an airport waiting lounge? It absolutely blows my mind. Most people with priority boarding also queue, standing, at the desk the moment they get to the boarding gate. WHY?! You have a seat already?!
- kranke155 2y agoPriority gives you 1 small bag and 1 cabin bag. I pay just so I can take a cabin bag.
- dabeeeenster 2y agoBut do you try your hardest to be first onto the plane?!
- kranke155 2y agoSometimes, if only because recently, Ryanair has "overbooked" for their actual cabin bag capacity, forcing you to place your bag below deck if you're one of the last ones. I find the whole thing despicable, but the behavior is rational (according to the rules Ryanair set up, at least).
- addandsubtract 2y agoFun fact: if you book priority, but then only take a backpack on the plane, they won't let you put it in the overhead compartment.
- attendant3446 2y agoTrue, and they can be very rude about it ;(
- insickness 2y agoThe only reason I do it is because if you get on the plane last, there may not be any room for your bag in the overhead compartment near you.
