What airlines should I compare next? Now all you Europeans can stop saying I never review your airlines😂✈
Flydubai
Delta in JetBlue
also Loganair vs Eastern Airways in the UK
American Airlines
qater airways
Rayanair is a way of life dude. U buy a ticket for the other side of a Europe for 7,99 euro dollars, u grab a back pack with a cloth change and your wallet and there you go to a weird city u never heard of for a weekend, that’s the euro way 😅
going on ryanair is an amazing experience.
They fly 737 Max's no thanks

Over the past 3 years I fly wizz 2 times a week on average. About 85 percent of my flights are on time and go well. And considering I usually pay something like 20-25 eur for a flight and I sit in a brand new a321 neo... it would really be unfair to say that they are bad, let alone worst. ...

why do you fly that often?
@@Morkva i live and work in different countries.
I fly WIZZ as well. Sometimes there are scandals like:Your flight is to Berlin,but you land in Hannover and it's not an emergency landing.Thank God I didn't have any MAJOR problems. My problems were just 2h delays or a 30min fuel fill
@@user-ki2tg3qf4j maybe it is for weather reasons? Once I was going to Berlin and a sudden storm came and the pilot said he had no other chance than diverting to Dresden. But then we got buses that took us to Berlin.
I am a ryanair flight attendant. Just to let you know, the crew did not perform their duties as they were supposed to. When it comes to the seats, you had the older version, which they are getting rid of them by time. The ones on your flight were non Boeing sky interior, there is the updated version which is way more comfortable, the Boeing sky interior. I can assure you that ryanair, in their recent training, they are focusing on customer service more often. It also depends on who you find as a crew member. I can only speak about my country, malta. You'll get amazing experience from here.
I'm from Italy and travel a lot in Europe, and I can honestly say that Ryanair and Wizzair are not that bad, bc in the overall consideration u have to take into account how cheap the tickets are!
For the money, you’re absolutely correct, but in comparison to all others on EU I would put my money on these two as the worst.
Hello,im flying soon with Wizzair planes,are they safe,the days im flying are a little with rain,not very much but like a little rain,do you think they are safe
@@eraelezi480690% of flights in my life were on WizzAir, it is safe, of course it is safe.
@@eraelezi4806It's not a Wizzair plane. It's an Airbus A321, probably the safest plane in the air.
Personally i never had any problems with the mentioned airlines. The problem is that people sometimes just don't read the restrictions, allowances etc. I've had bad experiences with well established airlines , for wich i paid al lot more money .
Same
The truth is the most airlines do have good/ bad & issues regardless !! To me ,I am thankful that there are so many more choices of airlines / products we can choose from & we just have to weigh 'em / compare to our needs ! I think Wizz air is good . I haven't used either one ,but looking forward to ,someday I'm sure I'll fly on them ! Lol.💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️💞
Ryanair is still good.
I bet you fly periodically, I take (not by choice) 6 minimum a month,band Ryanair is desperate
@@Letuva_Friends298Ryanair seats are horrible
I studied abroad for a semester and when I took my trips I only flew with Ryanair. I’ve heard the rumors, but honestly I was impressed. The fares are so cheap and all I ever had was a backpack when traveling so no extra fees. Much better than I ever expected!
People always say it’s terrible but I’ve been flying with Ryanair my whole life to go to Poland to see my family

I have at least 40 flights on each airline. Taking into account the convenience and price, I would say that Ryanair & Wizz are doing a fantastic job in providing cheap and reliable transportation across Europe.
But yes, people pay 10 euro but expect business class treatment :))
6:02 It says which door to board on the boarding pass. Rows 1-17 are front door and 17+ is the rear door.

As long as you look into Wizzair's guidelines, it's a decent experience. I took two flights with Wizzair, both impressed me for a budget airline. One from Paris to Rome that was delayed 5 hours due to protests. The airline could've easily canceled the flight from Orly, but instead offered us a bus trip to Beauvais an hour away in order for us to still take our flight. We made it to Rome without a hiccup. My other trip from Rome to Barcelona was on time and had no issues.
Bro so long
I've flown on every major US airline, most major european airlines, Saudia, FlyDubai, FlyNas, and WizzAir is the best airline i've ever flown on.
Wizzair is actually really good, I don't understand why it's called bad
@@SummerMellowsThey only call it WizzAir is "bad" because of delays or cancels
@@seankozma1030 oh
im actually surprised that wizzair is even considered bad because i have had no bad experiences flying with wizz when i was going to hungary to see family
Oh wizz is def the worst IN THE WORLD with spirit behind it (spirit isn’t worse it just became a meme)
im surprised to, i go every dutch vacation from amsterdam (netherlands) to skopje (macedonia) and i never had troubles
ikr
@@maxflax1521 wizz air is THE WORST airline ever
Me too
For me WIZZ air is always a life saver, it has much cheaper and reliable tickets, it's much friendlier and if you wanted to you could pay 35 euros for a 5 hour flight. Crazy right. The seats are also brand new and pretty comfortable, and the cabin crew is really friendly. Even Ryanair doesn't deserve it, honestly it's not that bad. Plus, would you rather spend 200 euros for a 2h one way flight?
Last month I had a WizzAir flight between London Gatwick - Rome FCO and everything was just amazing... the crew, the aircraft itself, no delay at all. 10/10
Hello,im flying soon with Wizzair planes,are they safe,the days im flying are a little with rain,not very much but like a little rain,do you think they are safe
Ryanair can be great. My aunt lives in the UK and she has to go to Ireland regularly because her dad is sick. She only needs a small carry on backpack and does not pay for any extra charges. She can sometimes get round trip tickets for less than £20. It is very easy and handy for her.
I live in Ireland

Ryanair seats are so uncomfortable (I have not been on these budget airlines ) no legroom unhygienic no lying down position bad food bad bathroom no shower and do these airlines even have first class , business class . And some annoying people would be often why not just spend 100 400more
Found Ryanair to be absolutely fine. Flight was uneventful, staff were pleasant and it did everything on the tin. Shared a suitcase with my wife, checked in online, volunteered to sit by an emergency exit so I had plenty of leg room.
Ryainair is good idk what’s bad abt it’s fine tho u so have to pay a few hundreds
Yes, I personally think to call any European airline bad is a marketing trick from the more expensive airlines. I regularly fly Wizz and besides their website being slow at times never had any issues.
The main difference is that the "cheap" airlines allow you to buy nothing but the trip. No extras if you don't want them.
Thanks, Dude!!! Awesome, incredible effort!!!
to everyone complaining about "hidden fees", you pay a pittance to fly and then proceed to not properly read the instructions so that is a 100% on you! Please pay 300 EUR for a flight with BA or KLM if you want "service", you NPC!
I noticed one problem. The wizzair plane was a newer A321Neo while the Ryanair plane was an older 737-800 leading to the more worn looking seats on Ryanair. Make sure the aircraft’s are similar in age
True, (ryanair is also getting newer planes), a thing a lot of people dont know is that budget airlines almost always have newer planes then more expensive plane companies, the only reason for this is that newer planes save more fuel
But if you fly with an older Wizz Air plane, you still can't see that much wear as on Ryanair. They care much more about the looks and state of the airplane.
@@Fgafgafgaf Also they get amazing deals from the plane manufactures for massive orders and they have great resale value as they sell them after just a few years...For them every penny helps as they work on very small margins

That’s maybe they prefer using newer aircraft’s and maintaining them regularly lol.
I’m actually SHOCKED Ryanair is considered a bad airline. I have flew on a Ryanair plane ever since I was 4 months old. I have no bad experiences. Yes there is turbulence but it’s not bad. For me it’s not the worst thing ever. For me Ryanair is a very good airline!
the turbulence does not depend on the airline
Thank you Bro i Love you
Ryanair is the best ❤❤❤
I've been also flying Ryanair since i was a baby. I never had a bad time
Same
Ryanair is the best Airline, not the worst!
WizzAir is my childhood and the colour of the arcraft is amazing.
Also i fly it often since 2016 and had only two delays.
When you said the seats were bad on ryanair thats their okd planes, when i was flying to spain for a vacation the plane was new and so clean and the seats werent cracked, but when we were coming home from spain the seats were cracked and we got a older plane, its not just ryanar, i love ryanair ❤
Yes they have made there airplanes better now and the led lights have you seen them?
When my girlfriend was on Erasmus in Warsaw and me on Erasmus in Bucharest, I was used to flight with them at least once a month and I have to admit, even after 59 flights with Ryanair and 24 with Wizz, that I was never disapointed with them, because their prices are that low, that you cant expect miracles. Its to get you from A to B and for that prices, which they have in Europe, Wizz even to MiddleEast, both airlines are amazing to be honest. You just need to have just backpack, empty bottle for tap water from airport and your snacks, if you want to save.
you are right
Glad you were in Bucharest, our country’s capital.
I've flown Ryanair countless times and never had a bad experience. The only time my flight was delayed it was because the airspace was closed due to a G7 summit in the region.
I also enjoy turbulent approaches and rough landings, so that's really not a problem for me.
On the contrary, I had far worse experiences with Lufthansa and TAP.
Also, I'm pretty sure that, when it comes to the split boarding, it's mentioned on the boarding pass if you need to board from the front or the rear.
I second your TAP comment. Absolute garbage airline.
Edit: garbage from an end user technology and customer service point of view (app and website). The onboard staff have always been great in my experience.
I agree
I love ryanair
You'll also eat so much better on Ryanair than long haul Lufthansa.. Dead serious
@frantisekoliva6304 that's because you generally eat better in Ireland than in Germany 🤣
The smoothest landing in the world is our slogan. "You paid for the flight... not the landing." -Ryanair :))))
My personal experience with wizz air, my ipad few out of my hands when we were landing.
I don't think Wizzair is all that bad. Also, buying priority boarding does SOMETHING for you, it allows you to bring a small suitcase with you on board, otherwise you are only allowed a carry on bag. And it does say on your boarding pass from which side of the plane to board.
I just flew with RA two weeks ago. I didn't worry or get anxious at the gate about the weight of my carry on because...I made sure it was under 10kg. Yeah I know, I'm a genius. Most of those that rubbish RA are those who get caught out by not following the instructions. You don't have to opt for any of the add ons. For a two-hour flight in Europe who needs to eat on the plane? Who needs a great seat? It's a bus that flies. I've flown RA lots of times, and I've never had a single problem. Yet you regularly see shock-horror stories in the UK gutter press about poor dears who fail to print their ticket (get the app and have it scanned if you are living in 2023) and get charged £50. It's not difficult. I'm over 60 years old and I can handle the tech.
Exactly!
Thank you for making this video .I'm flying this summer to Crete with Ryanair and the video is helpful
I flew to and from Cyprus with Ryanair this past week and it was a fairly smooth experience for me personally. Hopefully you have a smooth experience to
As an Australian, my only short haul flight in Europe was on WizzAir from Bratislava to Warsaw. No issues with the service and no problems at the airport even with language barriers. Best of all the flight was significantly cheaper than any other airlanes and was easy to book online!
Great video, Eric! I'm loving these airline reviews. Can't wait for more of these 🎉
I do really appreciate that the flight attendants were helping out that passenger that had a panic attack during the flight

when i was going on vaca with ryanair their landing was so good and when we were coming hone from our vaca the landing was also good!
10:40 i remember buying a 20 oz mountain dew at the detroit airport went through security at france airport and wouldn't allow me to keep it, but allowed me to drink it before going through. I was glad because their airport terminal was a greenhouse!
Ryanair baggage policy is clearly explained on the booking page (dimentions, weight). Why do people always try to push it and then complain when they get caught?
People like blaming their own problems on other people to escape their own responsability
I’ve flown Ryanair plenty of times and rarely had a problem. The people are complain about the ‘hidden fees’ blatantly just don’t read their website properly. There’s nothing hidden about them…the problem is that people expect a £500 service for £4.99.
Wizz on the other hand, worst airline I’ve flown. Left late every single time, and not by short amounts either. The planes also fell like they were falling apart.
On a side note, on all Ryanair flights, it will tell you on your ticket which door on the plane you need to go through, just a timesaver for future.
I absolutely agree Ryanair is super underrated airline, I flew with them like 20 times and it was amazing
the colours give me headaches lmfao
@@_i0054 yeah same but the airline is actually fine
The days of £4.99 flights are good still cheap enough though.
It's not just people not reading their website properly, it's literally a part of their business model. The ancillary revenue of these airlines is really big, to the point where I think you'd be surprised how much the average passenger actually spends on a low cost airline ticket
That infamous & notorious Ryanair rough landing !! Lol. 😅👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️💞
I flew Wizz twice, once from London to Venice, and the second from Naples to London
Pretty nice to see your opinion. As an European I actually used both airlines quite some times. I did not had any major issues, only in Bratislava where I was charged €50 because of missed check in.

I feel like your experience is somewhat hampered by the fact that European low cost is quite different to US low cost. I personally have flown Ryanair a lot, and have found them to be great every time. Never had any big delays, maximum has been like 1hr 30mins but this is not often. And also I don’t think any of their fees are necessarily hidden, they just have an awful lot of extra fees, but you can choose which ones to have, and if you read the small print then you shouldn’t have a problem. As for the cleaning, they don’t really clean them at all which again is common on most European low cost airlines. They clean them properly at the end of the day hence why I try to get the first flight of the day out lol. They have a target turnaround time of 25 mins, cleaning? Ain’t nobody got time for that 😂. I’ve flown wizz a handful of times, most flights were delayed but other than that okay. But I avoid them for the mere reason I HATE HATE HATE Luton 😂😂 whereas Ryanair I can get flights from Stansted which is so much nicer
I'd heard horror stories about Luton but I've now flown from there to Warsaw a few times and am yet to see what the trouble is 😂 Only issue I've had at Luton was on one return flight waiting for baggage claim while the ground crew were striking, that did take about a couple of hours and meant ultimately hitting my train from Liverpool St - Norwich during the peak period when I had an off peak ticket. Luckily since GA were also striking that day and running a reduced service, they didn't have any restrictions on off peak tickets being used on peak trains so dodged a bullet there 😂
Agree entirely!!Most air lines don’t give the option of keeping your fare down-not everyone needs to travel with the ‘kitchen sink’
I bought 4 tickets for me and friends on Wizz last night. The Homepage had 4-5 timeouts and I had to start all over again. Finally got the tickets, but at what mental costs XD.
i can attest to ryanair's rough landing. went to spain this summer with ryanair, and when landing, it felt like the captain smashed the plane down to the ground, i actually moved up in my seat from impact. no slowing down, no slow descent, it was honestly very scary. i have the landing video, and i can hear people gasping and screaming when landing.
There are many reasons why an aircraft is put down hard. Almost all legitimate reasons.
This type of criticism is rarely valid. I have flown 140 flights with Ryanair AND work in aviation at an airport so I know what I'm talking about.
@@pauldunn5978 Working at an airport, wow you must be a true expert on landing aircraft.
@tortozza Sounds a tad sarcastic. You have no idea what I do, do you? So why the sarcasm?
@@pauldunn5978 The Dunning-Kruger is strong with you, so I’d hazard a guess that you work for a Ground Handling company, as a Dispatcher or Ops agent, as an airport Starbucks worker wouldn’t be so cocky and a Baggage Handler or Security guard wouldn’t be arguing in youtube comments.
@tortozza Flight operations and crew support. And a weight and balance qualified load master on 747s. And your experience and exposure to aviation is what? I take it you are in aviation too but I'm guessing not a pilot either. Maybe involved in maintenance/ tech support?
I learn a lot of what I know off pilots. I've spent a lot of time over the last 15 years with pilots waiting for aircraft to arrive and we chat about all sorts of stuff. Landings being one of them.
What's your problem? I share some knowledge and you get the arse with me. You suggest I've got an attitude. Seems that's coming more from your side. And after looking through other answers, some of the factors have already been covered.
Absolutely nothing wrong with Ryanair. They're cheap and end of day that's All that matters, so off course you do have to make sacrifices, once I have a seat then I'm happy. I got a flight to Edinburgh from Dublin for €55 return, aer lingus were charging over €150 for the same trip.
Your right!
You should review easyjet!
And the reason why planes are sometimes dirty from the previous flight is due to the fact that flight attendants do a “cabin tidy” (removing any trash from the floor or seats which speeds up the turnaround time) implying that no additional cleaners come aboard to vacuum the floors. So if you want clean planes, fly the first flight to the set destination!
They are also busy, as they don't want to stay grounded for too long. They don't get any payments while being there.
if ur seat is dirty id reccomend bringing some wipes on the plane and wiping off the seat, tray table, armrests and window if your sitting beside it. you can also use wipes to wipe off the toilet seat if you need it
Broooo, I got stuck in a non moving queue for bag drop for 2 hours. Worst customer service ever.

I flew ryanair from Tampere Finland to London Stansted, it went well with no problems and was a good flying experience and the food on board was preatty good.

Bruh same
Also with the Ryanair landings most of the time they are rough but it totally depends on the pilot and I kinda like rough landings they’re kinda fun
Doing a rough landing is a way for the pilot to slow the plane down. Some of the energy that would keep the plane moving forward is dissipated on impact, so the plane can get off the runway and to the stand more quickly and maybe gain a few minutes for disembarking and boarding for the next flight

The last time I flew with Ryanair and I liked it there and the landing was smooth, but there is a minus: we were not given food and drinks, the maximum that they could give was water, and that was not free, not to mention food...
Awesome! Next airline you should review is easy jet. It is between low cost and medium price range. You should definitely check it out!

great vid
Iberia from Miami to Madrid was the worst flight I've ever been on. Bad food (and not much), couldn't find the flight attendants, trash in the aisle, ran out of toilet paper, very small seats and space between rows. Never again.
I usually fly with Wizzair and I liked it. But now they are cancelling flights to Moldova alot because of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. They are also the first flight to do this, which is annoying because we used this airline every time. But, I think Wizz Air is still good because it managed to land in heavy winds for my flight.
The cancellations are likely due to risk analysis.
The low cost airlines need their planes to be flying for as much of the time as possible. They schedule the planes for a whole day's work. If a plane gets damaged it has a knock on effect on all the flights it would be doing afterwards.
It was quite interesting earlier this year using flightradar24 to watch the plane on which I would be flying doing its outbound from one airport, its return flight to that airport, then inbound flight to where I was, before becoming my flight home to that airport, whilst we were awaiting our airport transfer from our hotel (I tracked it by looking at the scheduled departures and likely previous arrival).
I flew with Ryanair last week from Eindhoven to Pisa and it was honestly pretty good. The gate was announced on time and we didnt have to wait that long to board, on Pisa we did have to wait longer but there were plenty of benches to sit on to wait. I didnt see any staff inspecting bagage. On our tickets it was said where we needed to board the plane (also the back). The seats were messy but comfy enough for a 2 hour flight. My only complaint would be that we couldnt pay with maestro card on the plane, only visa. The crew on the flight back was a lot nicer
My cousin works in Ryanair as a flight attendant and she said they don’t have time to clean the plane because they have 25 minutes as soon as they touch the ground the minutes start and in that time they have to take off if they are late, the flight is delayed
Great video! How can you afford all the flights though?
Ryanair and Wizz are cheap so yeah
Tbh with Ryanair the reason it was dirty was that Ryanair most of the time do rlly quick turn arounds like once I was boarding the plane they had ppl leaving at the other end so they rlly just don’t have time to clean and at the end of the day at least ur gonna go on ur holidays!!
Americans are so picky. What else do you want for 50 quid or something 😂
cool vid keep up the good work!! :)
Thanks, will do!
As long as you're able to get to your destination safe and sound for me is a big plus.
Ryanair is underrated and everyone says they are shit but they're actually a good airline and people always say 'oh rough landings' THEY'RE MADE FOR THAT if you knew ANYTHING about planes you would know the Boeing 737-800 is MADE for hard landings to reduce time and increase efficiency, also the menu you're meant to download before the flight starts so I blame you for that. Another thing, it isn't Ryanair's fault that the staff are bad, they train the staff to be good but the airport staff is selected and trained by the the airport managers.
I just don’t understand all of the people saying bad stuff about Ryanair, Easyjet, Wizzair. I have flown Ryanair 70+ times, Easyjet 10+ times and just lately started to fly Wizz. People need to understand that paying that low to travel hundreds, if not thousands of kilometres is insane. Why should you pay so much more for a quick experience to be better? I hate seeing these companys getting critisised since I find no major problems with them. People need to understand that these are BUDGET airlines which people fly to travel to awesome places and they should not expect to be treated like kings!!!
I flied with wiz air twice and it was amazing,im really surprised that its ranked the worst airline in europe and btw i'd love to see you fly on airserbia!
I’ve flown them on the ATR 72-600 and Boeing 737. I can say that Air Serbia it’s way better than our national company, Tarom! Way better seats, more caring cc. Lovely company Air Serbia!🫶🏻
@@tudorrurac2173 same, from a serb
Ive been flying with Wizz Air for 6 years now and never had a problem and for the price for the tickets its just amazing
Hello,im flying soon with Wizzair planes,are they safe,the days im flying are a little with rain,not very much but like a little rain,do you think they are safe
Hiya,I think we were flying on the same flight (wizz air) because I also flew from Luton airport to Prague the landing was pretty familiar and the airplane was at the same spot before it took off(ik there's a term for that but idk it)I I'm sure I saw you the flight was at around midday but it might be a coincidence.
I’m glad the Ryan air crew actually cared about the person having a panic attack. Some staff can be insanely cold hearted when dealing with anxiety x
I worked as cabin crew for ryanair we are trained very well to deal with medical emergencies and that includes panic attacks
@@sirgaffo what do they teach you to do in response?
I’ve dealt with airport staff and cabin crew who’ve really not handled it well. Never on Ryan air though so this is why I ask.
@@George1789 When you go for training with cabin crew its not just as simple as just going into a job and they train you as you work, you have to study how to deal with first aid responses from small cuts and how to identify what type of bleed it is to preforming CPR and using the onboard defibrillator in case of cardiac arrests. How to deal with pregnant women from miscarriages to labour to assisting with birth and the delivery of the baby. Our role as cabin crew medically is quite extensive and covers a lot of our training and i know for Ryanair specifically from my past experience of working there the pass mark for all exams is 90% they do tell us that no matter how much you train though some may never be able to handle the situation as well as others and that's just part of the human condition as well as some who have become too comfortable in the norm become caught off guard when situations arise. Panic attacks we try assess what is the matter and if they have experienced this before, give the passenger some breathing space turn on the air vent offer some water and in extreme cases sometimes we administer oxygen in the galley to help calm them down. Panic attacks are quite tricky as often there is nothing much you can really do but offer a comforting presence and promote their recovery.
@@George1789hi, im currently cabin crew for ryanair, in terms of ground staff, i don’t know their training process as it’s not the same as ours however if someone is having a panic attack, we take them out of sight of other passengers and we basically try and calm them down as best we can, we have a set of things we do to help them calm down, but like anything medically alarming, we are very well trained and treat all situations very seriously, hope that helps! ❤
I hope they’re good with anxiety- going on my first flight in three weeks and my panic attacks are intensifying
I flew Wizz 6 weeks ago LGW-Faro, and it was perfectly fine. Would fly them again if I'm back in Europe for an extended time.
I flew wizz in February AGP-LTN and it was also perfectly fine. newer aircraft and they let me see the cockpit.
About the 'headrest advertisements': those are safety cards for your own safety, in case of an emergency situation on a Ryanair aircraft - which was told during the safety demonstration 😉🎉
Never had too bad of an experience with Ryanair, and I‘ve flown with them countless times. It’s not a luxury airline by any means, but you don’t pay luxury prices either. The fares are usually extremely cheap, but you have to comply with their admittedly unusual guidelines. Entitled people who feel like they deserve to be treated like a celebrity on a 10€ flight and not comply with the rules usually end up paying high fees, benefiting everyone else by allowing Ryanair to charge low fares and still turn a profit. I love it.
I flew with both of them and honestly for the price i never had any problem. I mean yeah, the landing is rough but on the other hand its kind of exciting to me :D When i buy tickets, it always shows which stairs you should use to get to your seat faster, and mostly back stairs are empty because everybody is using front ones. But honestly i actually could recomend these two to people that dont have high expectations for flights and just want to get from point A to point B for cheap price while having only carry on, and only having flight time to maximum of 4 hours, because i cant imagine sitting longer in those seats, my back would die :D
I have flown over 50 times across Europe with Ryanair and WizzAir and have never had any problems. Also keep in mind what the flight costs. I barely pay more than €20 for the flight.
I’ve flew with Wizz air once and the flight got delayed from 7 : 10 am to 6 : 20pm and when I got back the plane was late but overall the flight was pretty okay but the second one had a few turbulences but as I said overall I would recommmend
I went to London Luton airport and it wasn’t bad for me. It was clean but very crowded and gates.
Did dozens of flights with both ryanair and wizzair and it was always ok. However I always pack small so no issues with additional baggage fees. Regarding boarding. Both ryanair and wizzair provides information on electronic boarding card which door to choose while boarding. I find their mobile apps to be much better than apps of other "regular" airlines that Ive flown.
"Rough landing", well most passengers dont understand this but good landing is when plane touches down inside runway's touch down zone and it is ok to be rough (from safety point of view). Better to land hard in that zone than smooth somewhere in the middle of runway and not be able to stop before end of the runway. Also during wet conditions smooth landing can cause aquaplaning. Training and operating procedures standards are very high in both airlines although highly based on automation.
Some remarks on this video:
-Whether to board using the front or rear door is indicated on your boarding pass
-Lisbon airport is also always listed in Europe's worst airports, so obviously your experience also wasn't great because of that
-I'm 6'6 and take these type of flights on a monthly basis, so i can tell you the worst legroom is Wizz air, then comes Easyjet and Ryanair is the clear winner of low cost
-Never queue early => you'll never pay extra for carry-on luggage if overweight
14:50 the table in Wizzair is folded in half !!! You must unfold the table brooooo.🤯
My worst experience has been with KLM.
Flying from Copenhagen to Rome via Amsterdam and our flight was delayed.
KLM costumer service wouldn't help us because we had checked in. Doooh.
But luckily for us KLM uses the same handling agent as Lufthansa so we got on a flight to Munich instead.
So we actually arrived in Rome 20 minutes before our original flight.
But not thanks to KLM. :-)
I've had okay experiences with Ryanair but never flown with Wizzair. Nowadays even Finnair's cheapest tickets don't include a cabin bag anymore. I believe it is the only European full-service carrier that doesn't allow them with the cheapest Economy tickets. But why would you fly expensive Finnair anymore when you can fly low-cost that have basically the same ticket conditions (no cabin bags, no food, nothing besides a seat to be honest).
Think BA are also the same now
I love u eric I want to be a pilot when I grow up your inspiring
keep up the great work
Other than the laggard Heathrow, almost all major European airports have fitted advanced scanners that don't require removal of electronics and liquids. Many European flights will have small amounts of detritus on the floor because the flights are so short and relatively quick turn arounds
You should try flying Southeast Asian Carriers like Scoot, Vietjet, Cebu Pacific, Air Asia and Malindo
I just typed in the Ryanair registration as I saw it in your video, and it was an 18 year old plane. The reason the seats were not good is because it’s a very old plane. Ryanair have some newer planes with better seats and more legroom.
8:40 bro, this is typical Ryanair landing 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
my friend who was flying ryanair once got stuck in France for 30 hours because first there plane broke down then the back up plane broke down and they had too 30 hours on the floor with no basic neccesities provide eg food water or acommidation great job ryanair
The issue with Wizzair is that it's ok until you have a real problem. My in-laws had their flight cancelled (in Sicily, one of the most touristic destinations in Europe) and the next available flight was after 3 days! They offered to pay one night at the airport hotel and then... good luck! They had to cross the strait on a ship, then take a train to Rome, then another one to Milan. 18 hours later they were at home.
Wizzair is actually the best European airline. They are this good they have expanded their routs to Abu Dhabi, and from Abu Dhabi they fly directly to the Maldives! I just got back from Abu Dhabi (also visiting Dubai) and the Maldives for a head breaking price of £250 return! THANK you wizzair!
Ik wiz is my Childhood 🌸
Hi Eric, I have a video idea, you should compare America's best airline vs Canada's best airline and see which is better
you read my mind because I had that planned already!
But wnt that cost way too much??
Coz u would be travelling in two best airlines?
@@ericstruk is it delta vs porter? I’m a bit of a new fan so I’m just wondering
@@Yourlocalwatermeloncat_the69th yea or it might be air Canada. Ive never flown Porter tho
or he could do Europes Best Airline (Include 2nd best airline)
You should review airlines in the pacific area (Qantas, Jetstar, Air NZ, Virgin Australia)
I had first flight in my life 2 weeks ago with ryanair from Croatia to Malta. The seats are not as comfy as i would like but for that price i didnt complain.. Flight is short but no problems no bumpy ride and nice landing. Only issue is when we went back i had ear problem when landing due to preassure. But all in all for 95€ with extra 20kg lugagge in 2 directions is okay price. End i must say he landed in 20.50 like it said on plane ticket ..On point
Hey! Really love these videos, I had one question. What would you rate Emirates Economy out of 10?
10/10
Hey Eric, just wondering if you could compare Australia’s best airline and worst airline, for me when I went to Australia I had a bad experience with Jetstar, but had a amazing experience with Qantas. Hope this could be a video plan. 💀💀💀
Well, I have been flying a lot with Wizzair, Wizzair is not bad at all however its not cheap at all during the summer months.
Thank you for flying to Czechia
I totally like Ryan Air tbh. Never had a really bad experience with them. Would fly with them over and over again
Flew with them for quite a few times now and it‘s not that bad, especially wizzair. But to be honest, what do you expect for a flight that costs 20-40€? Ryanair planes are often dirty and not comfortable, yes. One time my flight had a delay of 5 hours but after contacting them they returned us 250€ which was more than the total cost of the flight😅 I would sayyou get what you pay for
I have flown both and both are great. I've been a quarter ways around the globe for a £12 ryanair ticket (same price as a 30 mile train ticket here) UK to the canary islands with 3 of my friends, it's great. Ryanairs new 737s and the new airbus A320s of wizz air feel fairly high quality and comfortable.
You have to play the airline's game a bit, buy either early or last minute, check for the cheapest tickets, don't be annoyed at arriving at a smaller airport, have an open mind and go to some random city you have never heard of for a £20 flight and £15 a night apartment with everything you need in a small backpack.
The bad reviews are usually from older grumpy people who expect the silver service of British airways first class - but on a shoestring budget. Ryanair is my favourite airline just because I know I wouldn't have been able to afford any of the amazing trips I have been on if they hadn't been so cheap.
I fly pretty regularly with Ryanair and only had a bad experience twice, and even then, it wasn't severe. Once there was an issue with our plane, so we had to wait for a second plane to land and board that one, which set us back of roughly an hour, which again, not the worst, while the second time was an issue related to the airport rather that the plane, as we had boarded and were ready to depart on time but ATC would not give us the green light. Other than that, truly no issues.
Same with Wizz air, which I used a few times and I think it has always been on time and a pleasant experience.
Either way, I'm not overly picky about flights I pay fairly cheap for, but also have no issue with turbulence or rougher landings (which haven't been overly common for me either way) so yeah, I'll keep flying with Wizz air and Ryanair whenever more convenient than taking a train 😂
Helpful tip: Never ever switch seats to the back, it is the MOST uncomfortable and less spacious.
I was just trying to be nice HAHA
she’s an enderly, jus trying to be nice 🤷♂
@@ericstrukAre you gay?
I am from the UK and have only flown on Ryanair and EasyJet and I don't mind them. If you have only flown on one airline, then you don't really know how bad or good it is compared to others.
mmmm😊
I flew three times with wizz air and everybody was very nice besides for one flight attendant that we had on two of the flights who apparently decided who she wants to greet on the plane depending on if you are a hot young man or not. She literally ignored us when we said hello, on both flights.😅But i have to say that the other flight attendants were really nice, even switching us sits so the whole family was together.
