Spend a pound to spend a penny... good grief!

The gall! The BBC has this as well.

I hope it is one of their managers who is flying and gets caught without the coins to pay the "stool tax." In any case, I suspect this might impact drinks sales.

""One thing we have looked at in the past, and are looking at again, is the possibility of maybe putting a coin slot on the toilet door, so that people might actually have to spend a pound to spend a penny in future," he (CEO Michael O'Leary) told the BBC.

He added: "I don't think there is anybody in history that has got on board a Ryanair aircraft with less than a pound."
