Sound like marketing BS to me.

hmm Could;ve been worth it for the insurance but its limited to trips you fly with ryanair – so you’d have insurance anyway if you were flying with other airlines or taking trips via ferry. So the only real benifit then is seats – you’d need 4 trips to really break even.
honestly who in their right mind would rely on Insurance from Ryanair? You may as well not have any.

For the price of a return aer lingus ticket, that isn’t half bad actually. My main question would be what those sales actually entail. I think it would save frequent flyers who travel together a lot of money on choosing seats.

I always take a carry on when I fly, I simply cannot fit everything in a bag for under the seat. Once I realised that I stopped looking at the Value Ryanair flight and looked at the cost with a carry on, then compared to the cheapest Aer Lingus ticket which includes a carry on and seeing that they were often similar if not cheaper, I left that sky wagon behind.
I’d rather give me money to a company that doesn’t spend its time ridiculing its customers on social media and flogging feckin scratch cards at me.

free seat selection and luggage/baggage/carryon would be something interesting, I believe thats what wizzair gives you. They skipped the luggage/carryon and limited the seat selection.

Is the insurance meant to offload the responsibilities of the airline onto the insurance at the customers expense? If your flight is delayed/cancelled they’ll tell you to go through the insurance instead of ryanair compensating you?

Genuinely thought this was an early April Fools joke in reference to Amazon.ie opening 😂

If I were still at home and fly as frequently as I did with Ryanair, that’d be a no brainier. €79 is not a lot of money.

Hi, Satan here.
Ryanair should put screens on the back of all their seats and play back to back ads (with sound) throughout the flight. Customers can pay to watch a movie instead for €49.
Could also offer a premium option where you can hear the sound track of the movie your watching instead of continuing to hear the ad audio for €89.

Seems decent enough depending on your circumstances.
It says you can reserve up to 12 seats for free. Usually it’s like €10-15 for regular seat reservation isn’t it ? so if you went on one return trip with a family of 4 and would have selected seats together you’d have already saved money and then the travel insurance and exclusive offers are the icing on the cake.
If it’s a couple then you’d save money using it on two return trips a year. And if you’re generally on your own then you might as well just use random seat allocation and save the money so it’s not worth getting it.

We flew Ryanair last year as the saving was £400 (for 2 people) but the experience was difficult (standing for hours, no seats, people pushing) and we had to travel to a Ryanair airport (we are near LHR).
Price difference wasn’t quite as bad this year so we flew Aer Lingus and we are pretty relieved now I see they are picking on bags again.
