Ryanair hikes checked-in luggage prices by 33%
Wednesday, 7 April 2010
enlargePassengers flying with budget airline Ryanair will have to pay more for checked-in luggage in the peak summer period, it has been announced.
The Irish no-frills carrier will raise its per-bag fee from £15 to £20 for all bookings made after midnight last night for travel in July and August.
The £15 fee for checked-in bags will be in operation again from September.
Ryanair’s Stephen McNamara said: “We are determined to incentivise passengers to travel light this summer by increasing our checked-in baggage fees for the months of July and August only.
“Over 70% of all Ryanair passengers will be unaffected by these changes because they travel with no checked-in bags,” he added.

First they want to charge for the use of the toilet on the plane, and now extra luggage charge. Come on Ryanair get a life.

Doesn't seem like much of a "budget airline" when all these price hikes and charging to use the toilet is added in.
