val douest Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 The following is an extract from one of Ryanair's news releases ontheir own website. I've started a new thread because it seems to besaying something different from the main gist of the previous postingsand because 16th of March is only three days away, so if you're goingto make a booking it sounds as if it would pay to do it before then!Ryanair, Europe’s largest low fares airline today (Wednesday, 25 thJanuary 2006) announced details of its next revolution in European lowfare air travel. From the 16th March, Ryanair will introduce a numberof key service improvements for all passengers including (1) allRyanair’s fares will be reduced by 9% (£2.50 or €3.50), (2) allpassengers travelling with hand luggage and in possession of an EUpassport will be able to check-in on the web at www.ryanair.comand by-pass all check-in and airport queues, (3) these passengers willalso be given priority boarding which will also eliminate boarding gatequeues as well, (4) for bookings after 16th March, Ryanair isincreasing each passenger’s luggage allowance from the current 25kgs to30kgs (comprising 10kgs carry-on and 20kgs checked-in luggage) whichwill substantially reduce excess baggage fees and finally (5) allpassengers travelling with checked in luggage who book after 16th Marchwill now pay a fee of £2.50 (€3.50) per bag, per flight if booked inadvance on the website, or £5.00 (€7.00) per bag, per flight ifpresented unbooked at the airport.I can't find any other reference to these newrules on the other parts of the website so I have no idea whether theywill be implemented as described. I guess we'll have to waituntil Thursday to find out!Val Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
