Please do not buy tickets from this airline. I have to paid between 55 to 100 Euros in each of my flights last summer, apparently because I did not submit my ID online. This ID online is Ryan air scam,they sent you an email with instructions for you to check your ID online but the link is faulty and never work, then they do not allow you to check in online so you must do it at the airport, when you get there they charge you an unjustified fee between 55-100 Euros each counter in each airport set up their own fees. When you complaint they tell you that is the airport that is charging that fee, which is completely false. I has been traveling around the world for over 20 years, with several airlines and no one ever have charged me airport fees. Ryan air make up fees at the airport that no one else does.
I recommend VOLOTEA is a great new low cost airline in Europe, seems to be hones, also AEGEAN was good too.

On Oct 18th Ryanair contacted me to tell my flight to Tel Aviv on Oct 21th was cancelled. They said they'd credit the amount I paid in my wallet but they didn't.

Already sent 3 emails with no awnser. Support SUKKKS. I want my money back!

I have a flight from Berlin to TLV on October 21th. As the country is AT WAR, I asked to cancel my flight with full refund. They said that the flight it's confirmed and it's non refundable. It's regrettable that the airline wants to make money even with this situation. Would Ryanair pay me a fine with they cancel the flight? I bet not. Shame on you Ryanair

On a flight from London Stanstead to Bergerac 03/08/22 I put a backpack in the overhead locker and sat down in my seat to relax and fell asleep. I got up at my destination to find that Ryanair staff had removed my flight from the plane prior to take off. They had done nothing to inform me personally of this removal. It is now three almost a month since this happened and they have done nothing to help me. The bag is not where the staff had assured me it would be upon return and despite trying every day to track it down, it seems the bag is lost. I am now in the process of having to replace a MacBook Pro, house keys, glasses, birthday gifts among other items. None of tis is cheap and no-one has taken any responsibility for the bag being taken from me. In addition, like myself, everyone I have spoken to since is confused as to why cabin crew would remove a bag of such value and not know where it was going.

A terrible customer service on the ground and on boarding. They seem to make every effort to make flying a miserable experience.
Ryanair seem to have a new policy of seating groups apart, presumably in an effort to get people to pay to select seats. I feel that this will prove dangerous in the event of an emergency as passengers will try to get to family members before moving to exits.
We were left herded in holding areas outside the terminal building for half an hour without explanation.

Worst airline
August 8, 2023

I booked a cheap ticket online but paid 2 times more for baggage. At the airport only credit card is allowed. One lady with a child cried because she didn't have credit card.There is a lot of hidden charge behind cheap online ticket. Never travel with Ryan air

Recently flew with Ryanair and had a really horrific experience. Flight was 27/07/13 East Mids to Barcelona T2, NLQEPK. Basically with no prior warning the aircraft went into what felt like free fall and extremely bumpy. Passengers were walking to/from the toilets and fell down onto there hands and knees as the plane rocked and fell from side to side. The air hostesses were walking in the aisle and two of them also went flying and fell pretty much flat. I am very suspicious this may have been done deliberately to catch up on time as the flight was running late on departure. Watch the recent 'Dispatches - Ryanair Secrets from the Cockpit' which is very revealing and should make most people think twice about flying. At no pint after all this did the captain explain what had happened or why. I doubt it was the weather which was clear, bright and fine. Ryanair is an accident waiting to happen.

I'd recommend using this company only in case of a very tight budget. Once the staff nearly denied the boarding because my carryon was "beyond the established size limits" as they said without even measuring it. Another unfortunate occurrence was on board when I was coming home from vacation with an emptied purse. I asked for a bottle of water or at least a glass, but they refused to accept coins, even though I didn't have any paper money. I had to bear a terrible thirst for the long 5 hours. I understand this is their policy, but there could always be an exception. It was an emergency for me. They would let a passenger die but would not break their rules. Anyways, I put 3 stars for I suppose it's a matter of a human factor. My other flights with RyanAir were not that painful.

As a US resident, I had the bad experience of being stuck in isolation in Italy because of covid. As a consequence, I was unable to make it for my Ryanair flights within Italy. I tried to reach out to the company several time to inform them about my situation. After several attempts using some kind of useless robot on their website and talking to representatives on the phone, they don't seem to have or want to put in place any customer-friendly measures in this already stressful situation. I felt totally helpless and I am socked by how they dealt with the situation. I would recommend you use low-cost airlines other than Ryanair for your next trips.

Predatory company
June 26, 2023

Horrible company. Predatory. I would not wish this company on anyone. Their insurance they promote disables you
To use their "change fee" for flights, having to book a last minute flight we were unable to check in due to being in the air and no wifi at the airport. Once arrived 11 minutes late to check in counter, they charged us 110 euros extra after paying for another flight out of pocket. On a side note the flight attendees wouldn't even give me a bandaid for my bleeding finger nail. Disgusting company. I will be going out of my way to tell people how horrible Ryan air is.
