Ryan Air? Or anything other than!

Delvey

No other airline would. That is what travel insurance is for.
As for booking on an alternative flight, if Ryanair do not do it, simply book yourself and claim under EU regulations

Not true.  When Virgin decided to abandon their domestic operation, they DID re-book all their pax onto BA (arch competitor).  When they ceased their Sydney operation, they re-protected their booked pax onto another airline. etc.

Simply? Won't everyone be doing that? People have hire cars, hotels, child care booked. Thousands of people have suddenly been screwed over at once.

I am talking about hotels etc
I am not defending Ryanair. But those with cancelled flights a few weeks away should be able to book on another flight on the same day or within 24 hours with the majority

The irony. King remoaner hit by EU rules.

Ryanair faces 20m euro compensation bill

True Romance

That does sound like they are very short on pilots?

reiteration

They're a bunch of spiteful bastards...

We used them for a holiday last week, and checked in on line 4 days before hand... We were asked if we wanted to pay for seats (7.50 upwards), we declined... So they sat us at opposite ends of the plane despite my row being completely empty, and my lady having seats either side of her...
So, after one seat was booked (free of charge) we then tried to book myself next to my lady,but then they tried to charge 13 quid..!

But as it happens,the guy next to me - his mate was sitting next to my lady so we swapped over...

With other cheap airlines, you can pay to sit where you want, if you decline then they will sit you together if there are seats available and not 15 rows away...

On my way back from Stuttgart they have me in seat 4E. My mate in 3E and 5E. Next to me was another guy (so 4D). His mate was in 3D and 5D. Same with the gentlemen in 4F. Could of sat us together. But being spiteful separated us
