* Turkey has been member of the Council of Europe since 1949.

* Turkey has also been a member of NATO since 1952.

Please don't forget Cyprus and Malta. They don't have a piece of land in continental Europe but they are part of Europe. So Turkey has a unique place in Europe like Cyprus and Malta.

First: no wonder with eastern european labour cost
Second: since october 2013 a lot of fees and taxes have been halved or more, so again, this is outdated
First : Eastern European labour cost is not an exclusivity for Wizzair. There are lot's of Svetlana's, working as cabin crew in Western Europe.

Second: the only additional surcharges that WhichAirline added, were the "...transaction fee and checked baggage fee for 20 kg bag...". WhichAirline did not include all other Ryanair's penalties and surcharges in their calculation for the above list. And actually, didn't the surcharges for luggage went up since October 2013?
First: you don't seem to grasp that if they work for a western European airline, they are on a western European contract and therefore the airline pays western European labour costs. Just to put things into perspective: wizz pays their polish cabin crew around 900€ a month, while FR cabin crew who are all under an Irish contract earn around 1500€.

Second: no the baggage charges were unchanged. Besides almost none of FR passengers check in a 20kg bag.
