Sexist Ryanair charges fee for pee and blames women for new bag fees

We can expect Ryanair to announce that there will be two tiers of fee-for-pee if they go ahead with their ludicrous plan to charge passengers to use on-board toilets.

Just this week, the penny-pinching Irish airline blamed women for the new baggage fees which are rippling through the industry.

On Wednesday, a Ryanair spokesman told The New York Times that women had forced the airline to start charging new fees for baggage.

"It's women bringing four pairs of shoes, hair dryers, that sort of thing," said Stephen McNamara, director of communications for Ryanair.

Seriously Mr McNamara?

I find it's usually men laden with golf bags who hold up the line at the baggage claim.

So, given the airline's attitude towards women, we can expect that they will probably build two types of on-board toilets and then charge women more.

Another good reason to keep Ryanair off the Atlantic route.

I have an answer to Ryanair's policies on charges for the loo. Let's make the aircraft a loo. Pee on the floor.
hmmm very good reason to keep them off the long haul routes. I'll be flying from Dublin to Murcia in Spain in September. May well have to pee in the seat then cos I'm NOT paying....
Flatulence will be next.The 'fart' fare will introduced shortly.
Just pee on the deck. Ryan air would change its policy immediately.
Ryanair is destined to take a nose-dive without leaving the ground--and good riddance. Passengers may as well be informed to wear diapers 'Just in case there's an accident on board' The bloody gadgets they intend to install on the toilet doors could stall and then what? In their penny-pinching foolishness they are currently the laughing stock of the Aviation Industry. The erstwhile "McNamara's Band" comes to mind. None of whom had a note worth listening to on the dancefloor. Slainte.
LOL when airlines started charging for snacks, people started bringing them. Maybe passengers will bring a "Trainmen's Friend" and just pee without leaving their seats. For those of you into the consiperency theory of history, notice how when they started charging for water it became unsafe for passengers to bring water to drink on board!
