Only Ryan Air...

This morning, I was looking into a one-way ticket from Prague to Dublin on RyanAir (I already bought my ticket from Dublin to Krakow, and will then travel by train most likely to Prague).

Anyway, I got really excited when I saw that the ticket was FREE on Saturday morning, September 6th. I thought it'd be nice to have a day to relax at home before heading back to work (I always hate having a long vacation and then going straight back to work the next day -- that's where the phrase "I need a vacation from my vacation" comes into the picture). So, since I couldn't believe my eyes at the price of the ticket, I clicked on "continue" so I could book the ticket. However, add on a luggage fee for having a suitcase, taxes, fuel charges, an airport check-in fee, a luggage handling fee, and even a fee for paying with a credit card (which I might add is the only way to pay for the bloody ticket!). Still the ticket ended up being a good price (50 euros), but man I wish they'd just come out and say the price in the beginning rather than waiting until you're filling out your credit card information...!

I know I'm a woman, but I swear, the person in charge of setting up the fees at Ryan Air MUST be a woman. A man says what he means and gets it over with...!

I'm happy for you that you found that good of a price for the ticket. Sometimes you just have to play their little games to get a good deal
