Once you factor in check baggage and food (traveling with family something of a must) they are often more expensive. Low cost they may be but not necessarily low priced.
YMMV.
I have flown Flyin' Ryan once in 2010, that's all... due mostly to living far from their flight network.
I had to go from London to Aarhus, Denmark. Wife and infant daughter along with.
Mainly, they were the only nonstop, all others were connections.
But I looked into British Air award tickets, and was pretty stunned to find that after buying all of the extras that Ryan was peddling (early boarding, snacks, seats, bags, etc, etc, it still came out to be 45% less than the cost of FREE tickets on BA.
