I used to find that Ryanair had a tendency to lowball the aggregators, and then whack on ridiculous extra charges at the end of a tedious and lengthy purchase process. Have they stopped doing that now?
- lucaspiller 14y agoI haven't noticed that recently. I'd guess because in July they changed the prices advertised to include the extra fees: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-18718556 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-18718556 Also last month they were forced to remove the 'you have to pay €12 to pay with a Visa card' policy, so now the fee is 2% for all cards. However, they now make the admin fee mandatory however you pay :) http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/holidays/article-2240292/Ryanair-imposes-new-2-credit-card-payment-charge-wraps-6-flight-admin-fee-online-prices.html http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/holidays/article-2240292/...
- aes256 14y agoThat's not just an aggregator thing. Ryanair (and similar airlines like easyJet) have long been guilty of advertising low headline prices, then tagging on all manner of fees. Add on the baggage fees, landing fees, priority boarding fees, tax, credit card fees, etc. and the price isn't so impressive.
- walshemj 14y agoThis is Ryanair SOP - you don't the the owner got to be the "most hated man in Ireland" for nothing do you.
- taigeair 14y agoYeah I really hate Ryanair also. Horrible forced experiences.
