Which airline would charge for a booking app? … Oh Hello there Ryanair…

07/09/2012 by Kevincm

I was doing my regular sweep of the Apple Store for fun things when I noticed that Ryanair now has a iPhone booking app.

With a traditional Ryanair sting in the tail:

So let’s see – nearly every other airline who publishes an app for phone use gives it away. Of course Ryanair will happily fleece you £2.49 for the privilege of an app that has minimal use.

This from an airline boss that calls his own passengers stupid for not printing off their own boarding passes.

Well – one less reason to book with them doesn’t it.

As usual remember there are plenty of other airlines apart from Ryanair who will fly to convenient airports that are well connected… who don’t charge for downloading their app.

    This was a dumb post (kidding here), now Spirit Airlines will see one thing they are missing out on and can do the same (if they ever make and app)!

    Every time I hear of Ryanair its always about how they try and trap/trick their passengers into paying ridiculous fees. They rarely make the “news” with their low fares. I would NEVER fly this airline.
