Don't cover me
In case anyone is masochistic enough to want to book a flight with
Ryanair, here's a hint - Ryanair offers the option of not buying travel insurance. Just check the box to say you don't want coverage. The challenge is to find the box. Here's the answer - open the drop-down box "country of origin", and scroll down. About half way, between Latvia and Lithuania, there's an option "Don't cover me". Perhaps it might be better if I didn't comment. |

Now you have given away their dirty little secret, Ryanair will locate it somewhere else lol - I expect they'll try to sue me for the costs of having to rewrite the software. |

Over to David Horne :-) Yup, they're damn annoying. And the 'captcha' dialogue is annoying too. But, people will use them if the price is right. I chose them over flybe for a Belgium trip in early June, not just because they were cheaper, but the flight times suited us better. (Not as early on departure, and later on return.) Even flying to Charleroi instead of Brussels didn't put us off... In an ideal world, I'd prefer that all this BS was stopped, but UK consumer law seems pretty weak... -- (*) of the royal duchy of city south and deansgate www.davidhorne.net (email address on website) "[Do you think the world learned anything from the first world war?] No. They never learn." -Harry Patch (1898-2009) |
