  • Here is my flight review of my recent flight from London Stansted to Cologne Bonn airport. I flew with Ryanair on an Boeing 737-800 aircraft in Economy class.
    Having flown British Airways from Heathrow and easyJet from Gatwick it was time to check out Ryanair's service from London Stansted, to Cologne in Germany.
    Germany is one of the very few countries still open for British residents to visit without quarantine applying in either direction, and Cologne is one of the very few cities flown to by Ryanair on consecutive days (meaning I only needed to spend one night overseas).
    Ryanair does the low-cost thing very well, even if the passengers need to inconvenience themselves a little to support Ryanair's objectives. But how has that service changed to accommodate the current challenges? And have German airports adopted a typically Germanic approach to managing passengers? Spoiler alert - very little and no!!!

      Hi Toby. Stansted's quite pleasant actually - just hold your nose and walk quickly through the shop!

    I have flown Ryanair so many times and from Stanstead airport. I'm now trying to put more value in my life and try to book more BA flights and fly from Heathrow instead. I live in SW London, so it would make things more easier and comfortable for me.

    • @MattsPlanet

      It'll cost you more (most of the time!) but the experience is so much more grown up!

    The one drawback of having stairs embedded in the aircraft: it eats up a considerable amount of weight. So the weight saved by painting safety info onto the seat back is way negated by a staircase.
    And I thought only AirAsia was the only carrier that preps passengers for early boarding before the plane even shows up. That means last call happens even one hour before departure time, which for AirAsia apparently defines as take-off, not just when the time they detach the stairs or aero bridge.

      The economics of the low cost carrier....

    Catching the first bit of this again as I've just booked my first flight from Stansted. Why that airport? Because the long-stay parking is around £70 for a week - and that's about half what Gatwick would charge.

    • @MattsPlanet
      @MattsPlanet  Год назад

      £70 to leave your car somewhere for a week is probably still less than it costs to fly to the other side of Europe on Ryanair!

    I was quite shocked when I flew from Berlin last week, and Ryanair actually used the airbridge to board!

    • @MattsPlanet
      @MattsPlanet  2 года назад +1

      The new Berlin airport was probably running a "free airbridges" offer to airlines as a welcome offer!

    Good video mate ! 👍 But I think the "pandemic" thing is getting a little worn out now. More people are dying of seasonal flu each year. Most people don't have it, and never will.

    • @MattsPlanet
      @MattsPlanet  4 года назад +1

      Thanks! What I will say is that flying is incredibly safe - the experts reckon you're safer on a plane than you are virtually anywhere else in public.

      @@MattsPlanet yeah ! I haven't flown since January to be honest, I refuse to wear face masks because I have a condition, but it seems airlines are still calling folk out who have medical conditions. That said it wouldn't phase me one inch to fly without a mask on.
