Twenty reasons never to fly Ryanair

Even airlines that are not low-cost cut corners wherever they can. A review of the actual work schedule of, say, pilots could be interesting, as might an inventory of all maintenance performed on aircraft that isn't absolutely mandatory under law. So how many crashes have there been among low-budget airlines, compared to the major carriers over the last 5 years? You're more likely to die in a car crash on the way to the airport. -- Andy |

Eg taxi to airport then flight with the airline with the best safety record, is more risky than train to airport then flight with the airline with the worst safety record. -- Andy |
