Ryanair's Fees Can Get More Ridiculous, With Your Help

March 13, 2009 at 10:25 AM | by | Comment (1)

Bold and brash low cost carrier Ryanair are not the kind of airline to suffer too badly from negative publicity like the pay-to-pee idea; they just turn it all into another circus of media attention that keeps the name Ryanair on everybody's tongue.

Including ours. Because they've just launched a competition for passengers to suggest another even more ridiculous "discretionary charge" that Ryanair could add, and the most creative suggestion will win €1,000. While the contest doesn't close until the end of March, there have already been some pretty interesting suggestions:

Charging for toilet paper – with O’Leary’s face on it

Charging €2.50 to read the safety cards

Charging €1 to use oxygen masks

Charging €25 to use the emergency exit

Charging €50 for bikini clad Cabin Crew.

We're pretty keen to see not only how ridiculous the winning fee idea is, but also how long it takes before Ryanair implements it, too.

Oxygen mask fees

Can we all please retire this joke? It's not you Amanda, I've seen it everywhere (editorial cartoonists love it) and it's never gonna happen, so it's not that funny any more.
