Am happy with Ryanair though - find their seats very comfortable because they are so high (I'm over 6 foot)

Happy with Ryanair Decentlegroom? Mmm, I am not a great fan of Stelios either, but I don't think that Easyjet would be as mean and go as low as Ryanair in letting its passengers down. You may want to have a look at http://www.unison.ie/irish_independe...issue_id=6405.

Among the no-frills airlines, FR are really the lowest of the low. As to no-frills not flying from convenient airports, this is (apart from London) a Ryan air speciality. Easyjet, Go and Buzz normally fly to ordinary airports (viz. Lyon rather than St Etienne, or GLA rather than PIK, for instance). GO and Buzz are very decent and Easyjet is OK. Ryan air just sell some extraordinarily low-priced tickets, but if you travel last minute, avoid FR. They will probably charge you more than a full service airline.
