Travel Forum / Travel Types / Air Travel / July 2008Ryanair priority boarding...
Have just booked a couple of tickets with Ryanair, and they seem to have changed their pricing structure somewhat. For ages, priority boarding used to come with online check-in, but now I have a sneaking suspicion it's not, and I have to pay extra. Can anyone confirm either way? Not really fussed if it was just me, but I'm travelling with an elderly relative, so need to be able to be sure of bagging two seats together and if we're not near the front of the queue, as she doesn't walk to fast, there's a chance we'd be on the plane last and separated.

But I do think that much younger children should be pre-boarded (and no, I don't have any). [1] This may not have been the official age, but no-one checked. tim > Regards > > David Bennetts > Australia >>>Have just booked a couple of tickets with Ryanair, and they seem to have >>>changed their pricing structure somewhat.

That way we got on the plane first. I see on their website they now say "Reduced mobility/vision impaired passengers who have pre-advised Ryanair of their condition will be boarded after general boarding is completed, seats will be reserved onboard." What does "pre-advised" mean? Phone their super expensive hotline? Tell them when you check in?

There's a list of country specific phone numbers UK is 0871 2460003 (10p per minute) However it does say you must notify them on day of booking and then something about only allowing 4 passengers per flight.....

Apparently Ryan Air now offers priority boarding for an extra fee, but there is a catch... If you purchase it for a flight at an airport/gate that requires the use of a bus, all it gets you is priority to the bus. >>Have just booked a couple of tickets with Ryanair, and they seem to have >>changed their pricing structure somewhat.

Well it does (usually) get you on the first bus to arrive at the plane. But I agree this is a stupid scam that they could easily fix by having a policy like filling by the back doors, empty from the front. tim Just explain your situation at the ticket counter and they will make sure the accommodate you......... --- http://www.moviesitearchive.com/travel On Jul 12, 7:35 pm, "Marcus Fox" <please-reply-via-newsgroup...@-i- posted-to.com> wrote: > Have just booked a couple of tickets with Ryanair, and they seem to have > changed their pricing structure somewhat.
