Ryanair Question

Flying to ibiza in august but when my friend was putting in my name he spelt it wrong by leaving out one letter. Will this make any difference and if i was to ring ryanair and get the name fixed would it cost anything?

None. My name was out by three letters before and it wasn't an issue. I went up to the customer service desk in Dublin airport, explained me situation to the Ryanair agent and he told me it was fine. He even put an special sticker and note on my boarding passes in case someone tried to pull me up on it when I was boarding.

Be warned that the new automatic seat allocation that they have now is a complete nightmare. Boarding takes twice as long as it used to. Some people seem to find the row and seat layout remarkably complicated for some strange reason.

You can change it free within 24 hours of booking

IT’S NO USE BOILING YOUR CABBAGE TWICE

30 eurohttps://www.ryanair.com/en/terms-and-conditions/tableofoptionalfees-tableoffees/

Alright lads just wondering do you still need to check in online for flights as I've payed to check in a bag aswell so do you just print out your boarding card as usual or because I'm checking a bag in can you just do it at the Ryanair desk?

They charge you to check in at the counter i think, safer doing it online LOL

Yes I know that but maybe it was a stupid question because I've never had to check in a bag with Ryanair before thought if you where checking a bag you maybe just got a boarding card at the counter? Anyway off to the thick thread for me

On the topic of Ryanair....

Flight left Dublin on time Sunday (6pm) and i didn't get home until 10.30am yesterday.
It was rerouted to Frankfurt Hahn.
Has anyone experience of claiming against such delays ?

Bit of research. Ryanair had an obligation to provide you with the following:
meals and refreshments (in reasonable relation to the waiting time);
hotel accommodation (where an overnight stay becomes necessary);
transport between the airport and the hotel (where necessary); and
2 telephone calls/ faxes/ emails.

You should keep receipts if you had to pay for any of that yourself. The flight distance is less than 1,500km so you are entitled to €250 additional accommodation. However, if the circumstances leading to the rerouting were "extraordinary" they do not have to pay compensation. However, they DO still have to pay the other expenses. Extraordinary circumstances must be three things: unpredictable, unavoidable and external. So if it was a Ryanair event, they also owe you €250 compensation on top of the expenses incurred by you. Have a look at this list: http://ec.europa.eu/transport/themes/passengers/air/doc/neb-extraordinary-circumstances-list.pdf.

You can also contact the Commission for Aviation Regulation, see here: http://ec.europa.eu/transport/themes/passengers/air/doc/2004_261_national_enforcement_bodies.pdf

It is over 400km from Hahn back to Memmingen
