Flying Ryanair is cheaper when you take your butler

Monday, 17 December 20123 min read

An amusing report in the Sun newspaper has claimed that it’s cheaper to fly with Ryanair if you take a butler with you.

The report, designed to highlight the "lunacy of airline luggage policy" is based on research by WhichAirline.com which shows it can cost less to buy a second ticket for your ‘man-servant’ than to check in your luggage.

It showed how a Sun reporter bought two tickets from Stansted to Maastricht, each costing £9.99 each way, cheaper than the £15 charge each way for checking-in a normal-sized (15kg) bag.

See the report here.
