Most people who make jokes about ryanair are just mad that everybody can afford to fly now. They yearn for the days when flying was an exclusive activity and only they could do it.
I always used Ryan Air a while back when I didn't have much money and needed to get somewhere. I dislike them now because of the removal of hand luggage by default. Additionally I find they're not even that much cheaper than alternatives nowadays which makes it harder to put up with their smaller seats and in general worse service.
Being treated with respect is now a premium service? And how exactly does a company profit from acting like an asshole?
I fly exclusively on low cost airlines, and Ryanair is the only reason I use the "exclude airline from search results" feature. Their labor practices are also abhorrent.
