Quite.
Ryanair have been around long enough now that everyone has flown on them and knows that they charge for things that used to be 'free' or have been told by someone that they charge for things that used to be 'free'.
I'm sure that when the Aliens invade, part of the handover briefing will include a caveat that a Ryanair 2p fare is really only half the story.
I would much prefer Panorama or Dispatches to investigate irrops and the fact that all the airlines try and shirk their obligations under the EU regs. Perhaps Ryanair are the worst, who knows?
But please, can they stop banging the 'Ryanair charge for things' and 'their airports aren't always where you think they are' drums as these are neither news, nor newsworthy.
