Ha, I have been on quite a few budget airlines.
I mean, sure you understand where they are cutting corners, but this is 100% unacceptable.

mind you, I have rode on a few BAD budget airlines, but none of them are as bad as this.

This will end badly. Hopefully when it does it will prompt an investigation into how low cost airlines are run.
Unfortunately this will likely mean air fares will rise, but it's swings and aroundabouts.

Ryanair is the one airline I'd never use, ever. My mate flew for then and I used to joke he had to pay for his own in-flight meals and to board his own flight. He's now on 777s with Emirates out of Dubai.

Shouldn't need an investigation after a crash, all these emergancy landings should be enough.

Well been I've been on Easyjet a few times and never had any problems-I've put Ryanair on my "don't fly" list though.

Used to be suspicious of Easyjet too but having flown on them a few times they appear luxurious when compared to Ryanair.
