You want a bag? Ka-ching. Seat assignment? Ka-ching. Food on board? Ka-ching. Didn't print your boarding pass? Ka-ching. The list goes on because LCCs make a lot of their revenue from ancillary charges...
In the last six months Ryanair billed €1.15 billion for ancillary charges. Don't feel sorry for them!
