Both flights were on-time. Had to wait an HOUR, going through check-in at the Rome airport (even though I had a boarding pass and no check-in bag because I am a non EU citizen). I wouldn't hesitate to fly Ryan Air again.

Nice to read the above.. We are also Non EU citizens and I have bought one checked in bag just for safety as mine was bordering on the margin of 10kgs so will check it in..

I believe this is irrelevant ..No one is forcing anyone to work for them and they may not be paid the top wages but certainly well above the average wage for the country..and how do we know
with certainty who is well paid and if that is enough for them
BA was supposed to be great but we hv seen their employees go on strike and similarly for LH..
I personally would not hesitate to fly any airline just because their employees say their want more salary or are under paid ( which employee doesnt want more
).. ans Ryan air being a EU employer am sure the wages are way above the emerging countries..
