  1. I have never managed to fly Ryanair on just the ticket price…it is an illusion… the last time I flew to Glasgow on a day trip I was told at the desk to pay £10 to take on board one piece of hand luggage, or £5 to take on board no hand luggage. It wasnt possible to fly at the ticket price at all.

    1. Thankfully there are alternatives to & from the UK. But it does give people in Ireland the opportunity to visit.

  3. Have never flown Ryanair because you never get what it says on the can. Extras are their business model and they will always find one way or another to increase the originally advertised price. Odly the only route that might have tempted me, Funchal to Faro has not been included. This means I still will be forced to pay TAP for a very expensive flight via Lisbon. This increases my CO2 footprint, increases journey times by a factor of three or sometime five and of course, thanks to the residents subsidy, provides TAP with another indirect subsidy. Amazingly this return flight all too often cost just under €400, provided you opt for the least favourable (longest) stopover in Lisbon!

  4. I stopped using Ryanair years ago. They abandon people whenever it suits them. He’s a crook

    1. I agree with you. We booked flights for 4 people to France but had to change the date owing to family illness. Ryanair refused saying we had lost our money but could rebook at full price. I wouldn’t give that crook the time of day. They tried to charge a friend £1 to use the toilet. She refused threatening to wet the seat. They changed their minds.

  5. Just used Ryanair last week to go to Faro, never again, every thing you do is an added extra

  6. It gives us another london option which is great and it gives Irish friends a chance to get direct to Ireland which us great too all these so called cheap UK airlines are ramping up the prices for everything so it gives us on Madeira another option and more places to travel to for our own holidays all in all along with Aldi this is fantastic news

  7. Back in the very early days of Ryanair we got some great bargains including 1p return to London Stansted, £2 return to Krakow and Dublin and £10 return to Paris Beauvais all from our local airport Glasgow Prestwick. At the time if you had a Bank of Scotland debit card you also didn’t pay the extra charges. Ryanair gave us the chance to fly to some places we might not have thought of – Bergamo in Italy, Beziers in South of France and Zadar in Croatia. Unfortunately changed days and Glasgow Prestwick Airport has very few flights leaving now which is a great shame.

  8. I understand the views on ryanair but personally have only had good experiences. Yes you pay for extras if you want them but managed to go without and even with them it would have still been cheaper than the alternatives. Flew return from UK to Dublin last week for less than a local return train from the midlands to london.. Both flights were early on arrival, crew was super friendly, captain very informative. I will happily fly them to Madeira when I can. Great news to stir up the pot and will hopefully bring down the prices for the locals to be able to travel to and from the mainland without struggling financially.

  9. Some of the comments here make me laugh.

    Flights at €29 and you expect what? A meal and hold luggage included?

    Yes, it does what it says on the tin. Pay nearly €30 and you get to fly from A to B.

    Personally i think this is amazing for the Island. As a an immigrant, one of the things that always had as a negative from living in Madeira was this feeling that as a local you are stuck there because you can’t afford to fly anywwhere. With the entrance of low cost airlines came a more open europe to madeiran people, and ryanair is what was missing to give another even cheaper option.

    Also the investment and routes are very welcome
