Ryanair

Hi.

I've been trying to book a flight on Ryanair for April of 2006 but they
don't seem to have any flights available after March 25, 2006.
Anyone know why?

Thanks.
Marvin

Because they haven't opened them yet.

Probable not for some time, there is really little need to book most
tickets more a a few weeks or the odd month or two ahead of departure
for a cheap fare. register for offers and you will get told . Too far a
head and you may be paying over the odds. Wait for a good offer
covering the date you want.

OK so that's one of the pax, what about the other 50 per flight?

Exactly. Therefore the fairest system is low fares combined with
moderate baggage allowances. Let those that for special reasons
require extra baggage allowance pay for it themselves.

Most of them seem to find something. Lots of clothes, probably.

I know. So if they can't cut down on their packing properly
it's their own fault when they get 'ripped' by the airline.

A non-story

Most common household bathroom weighing scales will weigh in the kilogram
range. Which makes it easy to check your luggage and re-pack if necessary
before you go. If bag is too big to go on scales, first just weigh a person,
then weigh person holding bag and subtract the first weight from the second.
Thought this was a common sense approach really.

I think the problem is that people just don't bother to
find out how much they are allowed in the first place.

They turn up at the airport with their luggage and
then express suprise when they get a bill for taking
four week's stuff on a two week holiday
