The National Association of Travel Agencies (ANAV) has commended a recent decision by the Judicial Court of the District of Braga, Portugal, which ruled against Ryanair for charging passengers additional fees for carrying cabin bags. ANAV sees this as a violation of consumer rights and highlights its ongoing efforts to address what it deems as abusive practices by Ryanair in Portugal.
They’ve gone down massively, I save enough flying budget to the US with only a rucksack to allow me to eat out every night of my first week and that’s just compared to inclusive old fashioned style tickets - which by the way are still the most common option. My whole holiday normally costs less than the ticket price did 25 years ago, plus I fly from the most local Airport to the most local to my accommodation which saves time and money.
If you don’t like us poors having options then sorry, you’re welcome to pay considerably more for a shitty microwave meal and excess luggage you don’t really need but I will be packing a sandwich, sitting a little uncomfortably, in whatever seat is given, using my phone instead of an in seat entertainment system, and not taking heaps of needless stuff.
Personally I’d love if they introduced flexible tickets where I book and they fit me on whatever flight has room within a window of a few days, and I’d love those double decker seats they invented to fit more people, racked compartments you lay in like a Japanese hotel would be amazing too if it fit more people on and lowered the shared cost of the flight.
