Yeah - will never travel with them again. They have got much worse since I travelled with them last - a deeply unpleasany and stressful experience, and it seems they've basically taken over Stansted, which used to be a nice airpot.
Next time we go there, I think it's going to be Lufthansa to Munich. At least the price they advertise is what you pay, and includes things like checked luggage (which is allowed to weigh more than 5 picograms), checking in, and a drink of water on the flight.
It's a shame that it's pretty much impossible to compare like with like before you fly, because knowing how much it *actually* cost us to fly with Ryanair, it turns out that flying with a full service airline, as long as you're willing to be a bit flexible, is no more expensive, and they're far less likely to treat you like shit.
