Ryan Air:
Ryan Air is interesting. Cheap flights. No Frills. NO FRILLS. All you get for the price of your ticket, is a seat and one carry-on of 10 kilos or less. That is one carry-on. ONE ..... not a carry-on and a personal item. EVERYTHING else costs extra.
- A chekced bag - extra.
- Bag of peanuts - extra.
- A soda - extra.
- If you pay for your checked bag at the ticket counter - extra. You must declare and pay for the checked bag when you check in online or - extra. That is, you pay for the checked bag and an additional 40 euros ($60) service charge if you do it at the ticket counter.
- If they print the boarding pass - extra.
- Reserved seat - NOT extra. Because NOT possible. First people on, get the seat of their choice. Last on ..... gets whatever is left. The line at the boarding gate was just short of a slug-fest.
- Licensed pilot - extra (kidding).
- We were going to take a pic of the plane - but we were afraid of an extra charge.
- Use the toilet - I heard they were pay toilets. But that may just be a rumor. Didn't check it out.
- Board and exit the plane - walk across the tarmac. They don't even rent a boarding ladder. It is built into the plane. I am surprised we didn't have to use the emergency exit and climb off the wing.
- Seats don't recline.
- Advertising posters on the inside of the cabin.
- In flight entertainment. Gee, you think?
The real job of the flight attendant is to sell products during the flight. They are constantly cruising the plane with carts of things to sell. Even lottery tickets. Ryan Air has their own lattery scam. I saw a lot of people buy the Ryan Air lottery tickets ... but I saw no winners.
Palma de Mallorca:
On the Island of Mallorca. East off the coast of Spain, In the Med. It is a beautiful city. Not really seeng the sights here, though We catch the cruise tomorrow for the last stage of the trip. 2 weeks crossing the Atlantic and docking in Panama. We have a few ports of call .... Canary Islands (no canaries there) and a few places in the Carribean.
It has bee a fabulous 4 weeks. But,looking forward to a couple weeks of REST on the ship.
Teaser:
Upcoming blog ..... DO's and DONT's when visiting Morocco.
Life is sweet,
