…plus their websites had a clean up too.
And about time too…their old site gave the impression that they [Ryanair] were still stuck in the dark ages and looked very amatuerish in comparison to other LCC’s websites.
Am happy to say though that having had a quick look at their new site, it does actually look quite fantastic (never did I think I’d use this word in a post about Ryanair!:D), its very sleek but most importantly simple and easy to use. The only thing I would look to change is to swap the booking engine and the promo slideshow around so that the booking engine is on the left-hand side rather than the right…don’t know why, but I always seem to look at the left-hand side of any website first, and if I were going to be pursuaded to want to book a ticket on them this would probably do it. I guess that sounds rather petty I know, but its just my own personal opinion and preference.

Can we expect Ryanair to be doing this?
I actually think Ryanair has had a change of heart of late and dare I say they’ve become more ‘easyJetish’. They’ve slashed baggage fees in half (to £35 per bag) and raised the limit from 15kgs to 20kgs, you can now take on-board duty free bags bought at the airport as hand luggage plus their websites had a clean up too.
Not sure if these superficial changes are enough to make me fly Ryanair, and in answer to your question not until hell freezes over so long as MOL’s in charge 😉
