Certainly a bathroom has to be included, you can't lock people in a tube in the sky and then not let them pee.
But I believe Ryanair considered trying not to use seats at one point.
- sidewndr46 1y agoActually you can do exactly that, at least in the US. I've been stuck on a plane more than once and told I couldn't use the restroom
- johnisgood 1y agoThen they will have to hire cleaners, because I will shit and pee all over the seat.
- sidewndr46 1y agoI've never personally seen someone do that but I have heard stories of this happening before.
- johnisgood 1y agoI have incontinence, so I either wear diapers (still going to pee and defecate regardless), or I have access to the bathroom in time. If I wear diapers, there is going to be odor contamination in the area. It is bad for others, and for me, and their business too, I assume. Depends on the length of the trip; I try to limit fluid intake to zero before I go outside.
- ndsipa_pomu 1y agoThat sounds unlikely - did they give a reason (e.g. toilet cannot be used when the fasten seatbelt light is on during turbulence/landing/take-off)
- sidewndr46 1y agoThe reason was because they said so. Keep in mind, I also had a flight attendant tell me that using Zoom on a plane is a felony.
- ndsipa_pomu 1y agoWhich airline(s) was that, so that we can avoid them?
- rjh29 1y agoRyanair also considered charging for bathrooms. Although in both cases, it's hard to tell if they were serious, or just doing PR.
- JimDabell 1y agoIt’s not hard to tell at all. At peak season every year, O’Leary says something crazy like they are going to charge for the bathroom, or charge fat people extra, or get rid of arm rests, or have standing room only. The tabloids run the story, and always mention how cheap the flights are, including whatever the cheapest deal at the moment is. It’s very, very obvious advertising. The tabloids go along with it because it makes people angry, which drives traffic.
