Viva RyanAir

Okay, why don`t we have RyanAir in our country? Our base ticket cost 2.99 Euro to get from Rome to Barcelona. That is less than 5 dollars. Sure we had to pay taxes, baggage fees and check in fees, but after all that we still flew for less than 60 dollars US each. I love these people, and it certainly doesn`t hurt that they are Irish. Yeah fine, there is no free stuff on the plane, but they sell stuff that the people want like pizza, good beer and lotto tickets. They load the plane from two doors so everybody gets on a lot quicker. Now, the only thing free is the on flight magazine which is usually a joke on US airlines. It is usually a boring hodgepodge of articles which try to appeal to the widest audience without alienating people or advertisers, kinda like network TV. Now on RyanAir the magazine has interesting and at times dare I say cheeky material. Articles on truffle hunting, where to stay eat and party in Belgium and what city has the cheapest prostitutes in Europe (Budapest if you are keeping score at home). The magazine also advertised a swimsuit calendar of their flight attendents where all the profits go to charity. Now this is an airline. On top of all this we got to our destination 10 minutes early. Bravo RyanAir, bravo.
