I flew them from Dublin to London-Heathrow last summer. I would take them again. When boarding they offered my $40 to take a later flight b/c of crowding but I declined. When I boarded it was not too crowded and boarding went smoothly. I think it is a good airline with great prices.

Have flown RyanAir twice, both times just fine. They are rather like the Southwest airlines of Europe - lower fares, fewer frills, use some out of the way airports but overall reliable, efficient and a good deal.<BR>Enjoy!

Agree with Seamus, no frills, but then no complaints. A reasonable choice to fly inside Europe. My favorite in that space is actually British Midland.

A great airline, or rather a busses with wings. Very simple no frills or free food, but for short flights not a problem. They do use out of the way airports so choose afternoon filgts-check the website for really good last-minute fares.

Agree with most of the above. They have great deals and discount their flights heavily at the two week mark. <BR> <BR>Generally their timekeeping is great but leter in the day there can be delays and I always get the first flight out. It's always on time. <BR> <BR>A great airline but don't expect to be pampered.
