Stick to cabin baggage dimensions to avoid extra fees; Ryanair is strict about size limits.
Avoid priority boarding; it often leads to longer waits in cramped conditions.

The seat spacing was good. The food, not so good... typical airline food. 😕

I would face like to have more selections for entertainments overall it was very good. .
One cold drinks service. No snacks with drinks. No tomato juice or apple juice, coke - only fanta or sprite then ran out of that. Went to gally after meal service no one there / no self service for water at least. Waited 25 min for cabin crew to assist. No recycling of cardboard/ plastic - all put to garbage. Breakfast was a nutrigrain bar and an orange juice. Also I'm sure I booked a flight with checked luggage allowance but had to buy extra when I had my booking confirmation. Movies were good. Chairs comfy. Pillow and blanket and ac vents.
I would definitely use a Linus again, the price was right, the service is excellent. No delays. Wish I had a direct flight from my hometown Detroit.
At check-in the unmanned machines said QR code was invalid so had to queue for over an hour to check in bags
i used to fly aer Lingus regularly but due to price - poor seating etc i have been using other carriers - i now have aer lingus in my state and the price is always the highest - i have flown to Ireland 11 times in last 24 months and have not used Hartford because of price
Nicest staff I’ve experienced on a plane! Good food, great entertainment, and they gave out little blankets that my kids loved. All in all, great experience.
I dont fly them much anymore. Other carries offere better pricing and better seating options
This flight was of exactly the same high standard as the outbound leg, exactly a week earlier - except that we didn't have any food or drink because it departed at around midnight.
Unfortunately the flight was delayed for 50 min. Just as we were about to board so that was a drag. The boarding was average. The bag check in process was new to us and efficient. And the flight itself was smooth- basically no turbulence.
Flight was over an hour late. Boarding was really messy with long queues at the plane.
Cabin crew couldn’t be less interested. Cabin manager was the most arrogant and the rudest I’ve encountered in many years.
Good but both flights were delayed by nearly one hour making boarding tedious. We had to wait with no information
The worst flight ever. Sitting in plane for 4 hours delay and then they change crew. No water or food offered to any passengers including children in that time. Only 2 toilets out of 3 operating for flight with 200 passengers. Only enough food available for about 7 rows of seats depending where you sat you might be lucky. Cabin crew very unfriendly.
Unnecessarily delayed and remarkably inefficient boarding contributed to a significantly delayed departure. Seats/legroom astonishingly uncomfortable even by Ryanair standards (minimal legroom plus reinforced plastic seat backs ensure you get punched hard in the knees every time the person in front moves, and as a 6-foot passenger I had nowhere else to put my legs. Upon late arrival at the gate in Luton we were kept waiting another 20 minutes before being allowed off the plane. Both Easyjet and Wizzair are currently a better bet.
Awful as usual the air stewardess loved her own voice and would not stop talking on coms for 2hrs please please please shut up I can’t hear my headphones and don’t want to buy juty free
Big delay on run way not much explanation why, missed a important meeting in Dublin, maybe if they did nt persist measuring everyone bag over 2 cm we would have got off on time.
The lady at the boarding gate was so rude. She was challenging people being in priority and looking them up and down as if they weren’t dressed for first class. This was Ryan air priority. We all sit in the same seats. She loudly called out to embarrass a man who she believed had cheated and got in the priority line. He had a valid priority ticket and even worked for Ryanair. Also challenging visas insisting people download them until they proved on the government website it wasn’t required to print. The Ryanair employee who was challenged said she is always like this. She also pulled people from regular boarding as they were fashionably dressed and upgraded them to priority and changed their seats. That was comical. I think she felt she should be working for Emirates first class, although they would t have stood for her rude behaviour
On time boarding, on time departure and early arrival. As it should be. Yes, the comfort and benefits are very poor, but therefore the ticket is 6 times cheaper than with a flag carrier. So I am not complaining about it. You get what you pay for.
The punctuality of f the flight was super: we left on time and arrived about 20 minutes early - and the cabin crew were both friendly and efficient. The only downside was that Ryanair appears to have resumes its old obsession with sizing cabin bags again after a long and welcome absence.
