Ryanair to send text flight confirmations

Ryanair is to provide flight booking confirmations by mobile phone text message at a cost of £1.

Passengers will no longer have to print out confirmation emails as their itinerary can be sent to their mobile within 24 hours of booking, according to the airline.

A spokesman said: "This service will allow passengers the convenience of having their confirmation number delivered directly to their mobile phone.

"This will make travelling with Ryanair even easier as passengers will no longer have to print out their confirmation email, but simply refer to their mobile phone for their flight details."

Charging for taxi

...they already do, it's in the ticket price. However, it never ceases to amaze me just how many people will accept being treated worse than an animal in transit....And the funny thing is, unless you book it way, way in advance, it's not usually much cheaper than one of the more 'traditional' carriers. Good marketing I gues...

Well done...

Well done to the new ABTA president. Although I think both would have done a good job...but as with all one horse races, 46% of those who voted, nearly half, don't get who they wanted. Early divisions... http://www.qualityvillas.com
