Title: Result!
Post by: JamesV6CDX on 15 May 2012, 16:08:51
I am looking for a few days away, at the  beginning of next month.

A friend of mine is an air hostess and says she can wangle me a deal. Return from UK to Ibiza: £37. Happy days  :D

Best deal I ever got was £0.02, return to Milan (Bergamo) with RyanAir. That was including taxes, charges, everything! Took advantage of a bug in their booking process.  ;D

In fact, I recall getting a ticket to dublin for 2p... I thought it was a silly promotion, not a bug   ::)

At the time, I just ticked no to "priory boarding" no to luggage (carry on only) no to this no to that, amount of things they try and scam you for!

Could not believe it when it stayed at that price after taxes, had to experiment with loads of different flight times though. Booked 2 in the end and asked a mate if he wanted to come too.

Slight issue was when we arrived back it was 11pm and first train home was about 6am, Liverpool station is not that comfy to sleep in  ::)

Still, for total cost of sub £100, for a weekend in Italy, not bad!

Did the same a few years back booked four tickets  including taxes to Dublin from Liverpool for 40 notes all in, rang three mates who I knew could have time off, then couldn't get time off myself.

Happy Days for them :'( :'( :'(

We flew with Ryanair to Reus (about 4000 miles just outside Barcelona) a few years back for £1 each return all in.

On the return flight we took off and one engine ingested multiple seagulls and had to do an emergency landing which was a very interesting experience though some on board found it harrowing.

Natrurally Ryanair weren't offering anything except booking passengers on the same flight the next day at no cost. Many folk thought they should have compensation even though they had paid a quid or in some cases a Tunnie . We stayed in a nice hoitel and had an evening out in a superb tapas bar and claimed most of the cost back on our insurance.
