Ryanair seat sale continues

Ryanair has just released six million seats for travel in October and November from just €10 one way, including taxes and charges. From Malta the offer is valid for flights to and from Pisa, Bari and Valencia. Tickets can be booked only on www.ryanair.com up to Sunday, the airline said.

Spokesman Alessia Viviani said the sale proved that Ryanair would continue to replace the era of low fare air travel with a new period of lowest ever airfares.

“Ryanair guarantees that no one will beat our fares so we urge passengers to book these €10 seats for October and November on www.ryanair.com before midnight on Sunday.”

Only Ryanair, she said, guaranteed the lowest fares and no fuel surcharge.

Have you ever heard of the terms demand and supply? Do you expect every flight to cost 10 euros. Obviously, as with all other airlines,you have to be flexible in your dates to benefit from the offer. For example, flights leaving on a weekend (Saturday) will normally cost more.

Results speak for themselves. Never heard of any problems, up till now. Thank God. they are always on time. Have travelled many times and can't complain. Keep it up Ryanair and let the competition rolling. Other airlines have to follow suit, otherwise they find themselves in big finacial problems. No more monpolies. That was in the dark ages. This is a free world and everybody travel and spends the way he wants. We are fed up paying through our noises.

Next time if I were you before putting down any comments, try to check well for the Eur10, cause there are many. Including of taxes as well. Ryanair is reknowned for these offers and is not a one penny airline. The results speak for themselves

Ryanair is in the middle of a dispute with its pilots over limits imposed on fuel reserves.
According to the Daily Telegraph, Ryanair restricts its pilots to carry only enough extra fuel
for an additional five minutes flying time on a Boeing 737. Under EU rules every plane
must cary a contingency load of about 5% of the trip fuel and enough to cary out an approach divert to an alternative airport. Captains have a legal duty to anticipate delays from headwinds, storms and re-routing. With such narrow safety margins, I would rather travel less often but safely.

The extra charges for these offers usually incurred are:
- €15 baggage each way (€30)
- €10 ticket both ways including taxes
- €5 charge when you make the paymen by credit card.

Its still worth it to fly for €55!!
Keep these offers coming!

For the skeptics out there as per Ryanair website at 18.40 CET 3/9 the following are available at EUR10 inc tax one way:

Malta-Pisa Oct 28, 30; Nov 4, 6, 8, 11, 13, 18, 11, 13, 18, 20, 22, 25, 27, 29
Pisa-Malta Oct 23, 28, 30; Nov 1, 6, 8, 11, 13, 15, 18, 20, 22, 25, 27, 29.

There are seats at EUR10 including taxes into December too! The only other obligatory charge is the EUR5 credit card fee each way.

Christian.... There is no date on the outgoing flight so it may be priced at September rates. I think they said you have to fly during October and November to benefit from these prices.

I remember RyanAir doing flights to Dublin from England for £1stg. But they charge a hefty price for checking in luggage, and if it is over their 15kg allowance, you are charged @£8.50 per kilo. I guess they have to make their money from somewhere.

Personally, I think I still prefer Air Malta because it operates on schedule rules and you don't have to pay for your can of cola, and your on-board meal; plus you have a 25kg luggage allowance. A free meal is much better than an exorbitantly-priced sandwich if you're going a long way. That's as long as Air Malta doesn't go back to charging hundreds of Liri for a UK flight, of course.

Hmmm! Six million seats @ €10... that would be a cash inflow of €60m then by Sunday.

If the little girl is under 2-y-o she doesn't pay (normally) but if past her 2nd b'day, she does. They didn't say that Pisa to Malta was the same price though, did they?
Christian Abdilla (on 3/9/08)
Can someone help me spot the €10 ? This is a copy/paste of a provisional booking made just now....one way from Luqa to Pisa.

Almost €100...has anyone added an extra 0 by any chance ?
