I paid for extra legroom seats and to sit together with my partner. Due to a last-minute aircraft change, our seats were reassigned without consent: no extra legroom and we were separated for the whole flight. Getting a refund for a paid service that was not provided is extremely difficult. Customer support is almost unreachable. Very disappointing experience, especially when you pay for comfort options.

Denied boarding

terrible experience, which is their signature. everything cheap, true, but cheap is also the way they treat you when you fly with them, they sort of remind you that is cheap by the cheap way they treat you and the little to no respect during situation like this one where there is a disruption for which neither them nor their handling company take any responsibility and bad customer service impossible to communicate with

Good evening Change people from boarding from Agadir airport are a mess for your company, I don't understand what your direction is as a company (I don't really travel with you) but what I saw with my own eyes what your people did with people who boarded the morning flight Agadi-Vienna on Monday January 19 outraged me extremely! And it's not about people who don't meet the requirements of luggage and the excess whey of employees who made people throw clothes and products out of their personal luggage because they didn't fit in your "box" even though the dimensions were respected Since when is a male bag in which a phone and your passport fit considered luggage?? You are a disgrace as a company and you have illiterate and incompetent regional menegers! I was not counted among the "people" who had problems but please check the cameras at the airport which I think says a lot!! You left me with a taste of nausea and whenever I pay more per ticket I won't fly with you anymore!

Think twice before booking Ryanair ...

Think twice before booking Ryanair – a costly lesson learned I rarely take the time to write reviews, but my recent experience with Ryanair was so frustrating that I feel compelled to warn other travelers. Here’s what happened: I purchased a ticket that included a carry-on bag. My luggage met all international airline standards – dimensions, weight, everything. Yet at the gate, I was told it didn’t meet “Ryanair’s standards” and was forced to check it for an additional fee. This felt less like enforcement of legitimate policy and more like a scheme to extract extra money from passengers who had already paid for carry-on privileges. By the time I added up all the unexpected charges, I had paid significantly more than I would have with any competing airline for the same route. The advertised low fare became anything but low.
