RYANAIR REVIEWS

Peter Matthews

This is not about a flight it is about the superb way customer services handled our forced cancellation of a flight from Pisa to Brindisi. My mother died and they handled the cancellation efficiently and refunded the costs in a very timely manner, full marks to them.

A Hearne

I flew from Dublin to Manchester. Would just like to say this is first time of being on a flight that nuts are not allowed. My partner didn’t come with us but has a nut allergy and I hope other airlines would follow suit when necessary. Even though only a short flight everything ok. Wasn’t happy about my bag ending up in hold on way home as had to wait ages at carousel for it but overall very good.

Dave S

Our travelling companion who is a big guy was made to move as the seat belt did not fit. This is the first time he has had this problem the other airlines belts fitted him fine.

The price of food and drinks is extortionate and not of a decent quality. I keep saying I want to fly with airline again.
