    You give them far too much credit. For they were not alone in getting the Lo Co ball rolling.

    I don’t give them any credit, i think they are a shoddy airline, but i still choose to fly them.

    Do other airlines charge booking fees for the use of credit or debit cards?

    Yes, most do, example…Aer Lingus is £5 per transaction for all cards, except Electron which is free, however this will stop, like Ryanairs.

    What people do not appreciate is that, like it or not, Ryanair have shaped the aviation industry to what it is today. Many people should be grateful for the work that Ryanair put in, however they completely disregard them as an option because of their hatred towards MOL. Ryanair offer just as much legroom as other airlines, they charge considerably less when booked in advance, and on lots of occasions on short notice.

    Deano, i think its inconsiderate of you to write them off, without the airline it is very unlikely that you would be in the job you are today. The industry would not be viable for an airline like Flybe had Ryanair not started before hand to get the population moving low co.

    There must be at least one free method of paying on all fares….Therefore, it looks likely this one will stay as it costs FR nothing/very little on card usage…

    I am not too clued up on LHR, LTN, STN or LCY, But i can give you advice on LGW.

    Over recent years it has become more and more unfriendly towards spotters, however there are still some good vantage points, Perimeter Road, 08R crash Gate/Field, Lowfield Heath Industrial Estate Crash Gate, S.Terminal Car Park and Northside Mound. A full report on where said spots can be found is on my new website, http://ldn.mjk.org.uk/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=57&Itemid=71 hope that helps.

    Another question, where can I find out which runway is in use?

    http://www.plane-mad.com/guides.php?guide=LHR That should help you, uses real world weather and tells you what runways are in use, and also the planned runways in use for the future etc
