Lily Allen Takes To Twitter Over Ryanair Boarding Pass

I once booked a flight from Manchester to Dublin round trip for 26 pounds. Thought how can I pass up that low of a price, right? Then I got to the airport and realized I'd taken the wrong sheets of paper with me. I had printed my boarding passes as instructed, I'd just forgotten to bring them. When they told me it was 40 pounds to print a new one, I just about fainted. The ticket agent told me to go to the airport business center and rent an hour of time at 10 pounds and print the boarding pass for 2 pounds. 12 pounds << 40 pounds so if anyone else runs into this situation and is early for their flight...

One of these days, on the cheaper airlines, when the oxygen mask drops in an emergency, they will be coin-operated.

As for poor-service airlines, try Spirit and Delta. I've never flown Ryanair but I'll but those two in it's class anytime.

Here's a suggestion: Protest with your feet--walk away from them & fly another airline!

Just because she is able to afford it and is a celebrity doesn't make the Raynair fees any less ridiculous! She, like anyone else,likes to save money (unless you are filthy rich & careless). She called out on the fees & voiced her opinnion like anyone would have noticed & found stupid as well. So if you are calling her a brat whining over fees, then you should reconsider cause you might be the one whining over how jealous you are about her having more money than you. She is human & capable of noticing uncalled-for policies. She never said she cant afford anything. She just knows she as well as many are being taken for their money. So good for her & you should be glad she is voicing it & having followers which may cause the airline to change policy or take a look at their negative complaints & correct themselves. Cause Im sure you would have been more angry if they were charging you for a print out of your boarding pass. But no one would care if you cried about it would they?

This is Social Influence in real-time! And the brand is radio silent. Unforgivable. The industry Tiger Team I'm putting together will develop new Customer Experience Model (CEM). Interested in participating as a team member or sponsor, please contact me @beverlymacy

I send a letter to Michael O'Leary every time I DON'T fly with the world's worst airline. I only flew with this poor excuse for an airline because it was the only direct flight between Rome and Edinburgh, but never again. Even going through Heathrow is a better option than flying Ryanair. Here is my latest:

Dear Michael,

I always let you know when I have the pleasure of not flying with your dump of an airline. I had the great experience of flying with British Airways on a return flight from Madrid to London. I was able to fly for 100 euro more than a Ryanair flight. And this was travelling in Euroclub class.

In the long run it was probably cheaper and I didn't arrive at my destination stressed and annoyed because:
I was provided with a meal,
I got complimentary drinks,
I arrived at an airport in the same city that I was flying to,
I didn't have to endure in-flight advertising,
I wasn't offended by the hideous cabin design,
I didn't have to pay outrageous transfer fees from airport to final destination,
I could have as much luggage as I wanted
I could book my ticket online in a simple process
I got frequent flyer points,
I was served by friendly BA staff

And best of all I wasn't giving a cent of my money to the world's worst airline, Ryanair.

Yours sincerely,

Michael

Complaining about Ryan Air is like going to the North Pole for vacation and bitchin that it's cold.

Honey, if you are a "singer' you should afford to ride in an airline that isn't bottom of the barrel. If you've been alive for the last 20 years, you know Ryan Air charges for air to breath.

Let me call you a whambulance for bitchin about something thousands of NORMAL people deal with every day. Just because you think you are special and have some twits following you, doesn't mean Ryan air is going to get any more luxurious.

In Ryan Air's defense, I've paid 1 euro for a flight. They charge for people doing things like overpacking, not printing boarding passes, and not showing up on time. This is how they keep their cost down, and I was able to fly all over europe for under 100 USD. She should stop complaining and just be more a prepared and smarter traveler.

It is quite simple. We are all customers using a service. Quit using the service or continue paying. The only way you are going to get any respect from these people is to hit them in the pocket! I also want to know, since they charge additional for large people.... where is my credit for being a small person? It only seems fair that a smaller person should not have to pay as much. Thieves!

Don't fly them any more, that simple.
