Ryanair is having some legal trouble with their extra fees.
Budget airline Ryanair are famous for their cost cutting measures and trying to charge customers for going to the toilet, but a Spanish court in Barcelona has finally had enough and has deemed that their latest measure is illegal.
The court says that Ryanair’s £40 fee for passengers who do not print and arrive with their own boarding pass is illegal. Their airline calls the ruling “bizarre and unlawful.” What do you think?

I only had one experience with this airline, at that time the barcode in my printed boarding pass was so unrecognizable (bad ink), the lady in their check-in counter happily printed a better one for me for free.
I think any passengers that already choose the airline must read about their fees. If someone forget something as important as a boarding pass, it's most likely (s)he is forgetting something else as well.

Wow, even the £40 fee is better than this:
Ryanair is appealing the ruling but if it fails to have it overturned, then passengers who turn up at the terminal without a pass will be forced to by another plane ticket before being allowed to board.
Ouch.

Ryanair make me sick. Be as nasty as you can to your customers, fine them for little mistakes? I will never fly with them.
