Default Ryanair scraps check-in desks as it charges passengers £10 to print tickets at home (and a £40 fine if you forget)

This isn't cutting costs. It is raising fares without raising fares.
Basically allows Ryannair tro advertise 1£ fares that end up to be £100
once you have left the aircraft at destination.


Except that as a non-avoidable cost it won't achieve that

Sooner or later they will be told to incorporate it into the headline fare
