    Ryanair - where taking a p155 will cost you..

    Well I think this guy is really pushing it now, i had used this airline quite a few times when i was working in Germany to get back to the UK for a weekend as it was cheap as chips most times.. I cannot believe that he wants to charge a person for taking a slash, i bet if you held the door open for another passenger once you had used it the jumped up airline staff (they are almost always jumped up numpties) would cause a right row and you would be arrested upon arrival at your destination.

    Its madness when you try and board one of there flights as it is, its a free for all, like being on an Aeroflot flight but worse...

    Ryanair mulls charge for toilets







    Michael O'Leary: 'People might have to spend a pound to spend a penny'

    Irish budget airline Ryanair has said it is considering charging passengers for using the toilet while flying.
    Chief executive Michael O'Leary told the BBC that the Dublin-based carrier was looking at maybe installing a "coin slot on the toilet door".
    Consumer group Which? said the airline was putting "profit before passengers".
    Last week Ryanair confirmed it plans to close all of its airport check-in desks by the end of the year in a bid to reduce the cost of its flights.
    'Fast buck'
    Ryanair aims to offer low basic ticket prices, and then charge extra for items such as checking in at the airport or for additional luggage.
    "One thing we have looked at in the past, and are looking at again, is the possibility of maybe putting a coin slot on the toilet door, so that people might actually have to spend a pound to spend a penny in future," he told BBC television.
    He added: "I don't think there is anybody in history that has got on board a Ryanair aircraft with less than a pound."
    But Rochelle Turner, Head of Research at Which? Holiday, said: "It seems Ryanair is prepared to plumb any depth to make a fast buck and, once again, is putting profit before the comfort of its customers.
    "Charging people to go to the toilet might result in fewer people buying overpriced drinks on board, though - that would serve Ryanair right."

          Michael O'Leary is a legend for getting peopel talking about Ryanair. Don't believe this. The toilets on planes can be accessed from outside whether locked or not (for safety reasons) so this would never fly!!! - forgive the pun :-)

            Heard this on the radio and thought it was April 1st. Think sol may well be correct on this one. A pr stunt to get them free air time.

              Wouldn't give Ryanair the steam off my piss ! They are a bunch of crooks !
              Their next scam will probably be an onboard game of bingo , ?1 a ticket , 1st prize , 2 vouchers for a barry white in their mid air bog ! .


              The company's a joke , a bad Irish joke !

                    Instead of cleaning mags and crisp bags up , the staff will have to look out for curlys in the aisles and skid marks on the armrests !
