No frills, no seats: Ryanair's latest cost-cutting plan

 

Plans to get rid of seats and introduce pay-toilets by the budget airline will not happen for at least two years, say safety officials

 

Plans by Ryanair to introduce standing room on its aircraft will not happen for at least two years and may never materialise if the airline fails to meet stringent European safety requirements.

 

The budget airline's boss, Michael O'Leary, will talk about his plans to replace 10 rows of seats with a standing area as well as introducing a coin-operated toilet on some planes

Looks like some stand up roller-coaster ride setup!

[grungy-gonads 54]

That looks like fun.

But how do you eat your pretend chicken or beef?

I would say they are only for use on short flights where they don't serve anything anyway.

 

Bus of the air.

Overbooked - never mind....please move to the back of the plane and grab an overhead dangly strap. Squish up .... that's it. Now hold on for take off!

 

At least it would end the wider seats for big fella's debate once and for all. Standing room for fatties. You can only sit if your bum fits in the seat

"vertical seating"

Ryanair sure are "good" at getting publicity.

I suppose they believe in the any publicity is good publicity thinking.

re.scouser

 

This is an old story, but anyway I believe the boss of Ryanair said something like this about it at the time:

 

"A pound to use the toilet? We might have been taking the piss with that one."

Ryanair only fly short haul anyway and if yo want to eat on their flights then you have to buy (or take yor own).

yeah, but the real question is; "how many cheap bastards would do it"

And eat standing up!

I think I would take my own. A doner kebab on a flgith would be ace. Of course I'd need 5 pints before that.

and after.

Doesn't this belong in the "Sardines" thread?

[cal 6]

good one

Has mister Ryan come out and said he's been taking the piss again?

 

With 250 planes, they are a serious airline.
