Ryanair to abolish check-in desks

If they can afford 1st class then they can afford a cab, or a limo, or a scheduled flight or a private jet. If you have to stand then it simply isn't acceptable on a regular basis. *No one in the UK should have to accept it. OK, so we have to supply enough rolling stock to give every possible peak time traveller a seat. That stock will, of course, be unused for most of the time. Who do you think should pay for it? Ian |

It's worse than that, because people currently stagger their journeys because of the over-crowding. If everyone could travel when they really wanted to, the supply of rolling stock would have to be even greater. -- Roland Perry |

And at least the current arrangement of being able to stand allows a choice to travel then (in less comfort) or later with a seat. Reservations compulsory, the only practical way of doing what the OP wants, removes that choice. Neil -- Neil Williams Put my first name before the at to reply. |
