Not it’s not okay actually

You can stand up, but let the people in the rows in front of you go first. As for the piss, you can’t go right before you get on?

Charity fucking boxing match if you carry on

Yeah I do let the people go in front of me. I’m not a lunatic.

I do go for a piss before I get on but once you start, that’s it.

If you can go all those hours, long haul especially, without standing up on a plane, then your body must be an orthopaedic catastrophe.

All this airport annoyance reminds me I'll be on the plane to Alicante in the morning, not sure about 4 pints before a 0745 flight but I'll give it a go

Most annoying thing above all is where you're about to fall asleep, especially on Ryanair, and the tannoy blasts out about selling those lottery tickets nobody ever wins on

Have never flown Ryanair. Is it really as bad as people say?

Not really, never had any problems but ultimately the low cost carriers all use similar planes in broadly the same configuration. The colour scheme onboard is the worse thing about Ryanair imo.

The actual flights i have taken with Ryanair have been absolutely no problem - they are safe and the cabin staff highly professional. The seat legroom is a bit of a problem for me as i have long legs, rivalled only by American Airlines, but i'm not sitting on Ryanair for 9 hours at a time!
The problem i have is with the hidden/add-on costs (especially if you want to take anything on board larger than a laptop bag) and adopting a maximum carry-on bag size (if you pay for it) smaller than anyone else AND the size in the IATA guidelines.

People who don't have their passports/boarding info ready to present. Then take ages scrambling through their bags/phones for them.
People (again) not putting their jackets/coats/belts/coins etc in the trays at security. How long have we been doing it?

I just stand my ground and walk towards them; the other week one of them ended up falling off his bike into a bush.

Adding to the airport annoyances was the miserable c**t on security this morning, I get it's not the most enriching job but he spoke to some old fella like he was an idiot.

The most dangerous cyclists are the Lycra clad crusties , they will never use a cycle lane as it would cost them
Seconds off their latest strada time - they are everywhere in our country lanes around our place causing mayhem - as for the Coventry story on using shared spaces watch the injuries go up - if you have them coming up behind you on a junction move to the left so they can’t get up the inside to block your view of the pedestrians you have to give way to as they won’t - they don’t like to remove their shoes from the clips so anything to cause them to stop is safer for all concerned - make sure you ask by shouting of course where their bell is ! Was going down the road the other day with my wife and there was a guy pissing over his crossbar couldn’t even be bothered to get off the bike - disgusting

Yeah all of the run-ins that i've had are with men wearing lycra shooting along pavements that aren't suitable for 2 people to pass each other and being so entitled that they expect everyone to stop and stand in the road and let them by.
