Re: Ryanair in 2017
A Ryanair passenger who was checked in but didn’t print his boarding pass was denied boarding at gate A32 at Brussels Airport and was forced to pay 50€ to Ryanair (via the Aviapartner gate agent). The passenger started ranting, shouting and … filming
Note: nothing to do with Ryanair the airline!

Very good question. It looks like security has failed!airtrainer wrote: ↑08 Jun 2017, 16:13And how did he made it to the gate without a boarding pass ?luchtzak wrote: ↑08 Jun 2017, 15:19 A Ryanair passenger who was checked in but didn’t print his boarding pass was denied boarding at gate A32 at Brussels Airport and was forced to pay 50€ to Ryanair (via the Aviapartner gate agent).

Re: Ryanair in 2017
Couldn't he have had an electronic boarding pass, which might be enough to go through security, but not sufficient per RYR policy?
I haven't flown RYR in more than 10 years, so I wouldn't know the answer to my own question, but it seems like a possibility?

He had a connecting flight ? Or he could pass the scanners via his boarding pass on his smartphone?sn26567 wrote: ↑08 Jun 2017, 16:22Very good question.

Anyway verbal agression is getting more common, and it's a sad situation ...
Re: Ryanair in 2017
You can board an FR flight with the boarding pass in the FR app... if the battery of your smartphone is still working...
Or, he lost his paper boarding pass somewhere...
Cheers,

Re: Ryanair in 2017
Even a pdf of the boarding pass is accepted if the original one is lost, so I dont know how this situation started?

Re: Ryanair in 2017
One important thing a lot of people seem to forget:
- pax had American citizenship, and according to FR rules needs to get's visa status checked at check-in time or boarding can be denied: https://www.ryanair.com/gb/en/useful-in ... -visas#0-0
This check also implies that non-EU/EEA citizens need to have a printed boarding pass and electronic boarding pass cannot be used.

Ryanair is reportedly in talks with Boeing about placing an order for its proposed new B737 MAX 10.

Re: Ryanair in 2017
An internal communication within my company gives some interesting facts about our competitors including Ryanair. Here are some direct quotes:
Impressive figuresthe total returns to shareholders since 2008 are 5,4 bn€ and this makes Ryanair by a considerable margin the most succesful european airline for the last 10 years. Unit costs continued to fall 11,3pct vs the same period last year. Growth was 13.2pct and average loadfactor is 94%

Very impressive indeed! The pax may not always be happy, but the shareholders certainly are!sean1982 wrote: ↑15 Jun 2017, 07:16 An internal communication within my company gives some interesting facts about our competitors including Ryanair. Here are some direct quotes:

Re: Ryanair in 2017
Ryanair CEO Michael O’Leary says he is “very tempted” to order the B737 MAX 10, but only when the “price is right”, adding that discussions with Boeing are under way.
Michael O’Leary also says his carrier would be interested in buying Alitalia if its commissioners make “major changes and restructuring”, adding he would only buy it for a majority stake.
