  • JUST £1.99 !! However I discovered one little problem. | Ibiza to Valencia on Ryanair
    It seemed a bargain too good to be true. Fly with Ryanair from Ibiza to Valencia for just £1.99. Was there a catch? Not with the airfare, but there was a complication on arrival at Valencia.

    In the noughties, my daughter managed to get a Ryanair flight for 1 cent, to southern France. The return fare was something like €50 but she was going to university so didn't need a return flight for a few months and just bought the single fare.

    Cheapest Ryanair flight I have ever purchased was £0.01 including tax. Around 2010 Ryanair launched tons of new destinations in the same time and this flight was between Dublin and Pisa one way and £0.02 return. I think I still got the email :-)

    Cheapest flight I ever had was London to Singapore on Air Canada in 1987 and back, cost £0.00 (my Dad worked for Air Canada) the catch, I got bumped off during the stopover in Bombay (as it was then) as I was deemed to be on a staff ticket and they had paying customers. I had to sit it out for 3 days while the flight went BOM-LHR-YYZ-LHR-BOM-SIN-BOM so I had another attempt to get back on, lol

    Really disappointing for me was when I had a flight from Eindhoven in Netherlands on 8 AM and I realized that bus shuttle to the airport doesn't run before 8. It's a second-largest airport in the country and they don't even have shuttles for their first flights of the day.

      They are all owned by the same state agency, AENA, which uses standardised signage etc to achieve this. Works very well! There used to be one private airport in Spain, Ciudad Real - Madrid airport (bit of ryanair style advertising as it isnt in Madrid) but it closed to passengers years ago and no idea if they followed the theme but id imagine not.

    I did this very same return flight in 2018, but the return fare was 74.98 Euros on Ryanair. It was July, so hardly surprising. Also, I was allocated Ryanair's dreaded 'middle seat' but since the flight is only around 30 minutes long, it didn't really matter. Nice one Scott, sorry about the metro situation, it's a great system when it does operate!

    • @LAGoodz
      @LAGoodz Год назад

      Why is it dreaded? It’s bigger seat and pitch than British Airways Eurofleet(who are always late). I prefer flying directly into Stansted or Luton than in a holding pattern over London for 20 mins and then taking another 30 to taxi to the gate. Then wait ages in T5 arrival hall crossing your fingers it’ll even be there. I’d pick Ryanair any day.

    I remember in the 2000s I regularly got 1p flights each-way to ALC before the UK government introduced horrendous ADP taxis. Ryanair now make a lot of their money thru ancillary services, like baggage and on-board products. Ryanair are still amazing, you’ve just got to know how their model works. They have a zero fatality record which is enviable considering their fleet size ~ 450 aircraft over decades.
    Do they not have Uber or local mini taxi numbers at Valencia airport? Just need to do your research. You made out in your video title was about Ryanair, not Aena, the monopoly airport operator in Spain. I’ve noticed in your past videos you do this for clickbait

    Will not fly Ryanair again, period. Flight cost doubled after they added on the credit card surcharge (single transaction, 4 tickets, 4 surcharges). Would have been happy enough with the cost if it had all been included, but it was the sneaky method they used.
    Prestwick to Dublin, carry on luggage. 3 opportunities to check the weight, but they waited until boarding so your choice was lose your luggage or get the next flight, at whatever cost that would be. I had checked my weight before I left, so knew it was ok, but thought the way they did it was disgusting. GIRFUY, Ryanair!

    I think you made a few mistakes. Budget airlines rarely start and land from the standard hubs. That's what you don't pay for. What you called a fare is only a very small downpayment for the costs you contributed to by speeding up climate change. The cheaper now, the more you will pay later. Unfortunately, people who did not waste CO2 will also have to pay, same as future generations. Ever heard of après nous, le déluge?

On return, I took my boxed bike on the Metro from Valencia Airport to Serreria (where I lived) and one of my fellow-passengers made a big scene about what right I had to take such a large box on a Metro train!

    Scott, a warning to all. However, when I visited Valencia a few years ago, I realised that the metro/ buses close early. So I stayed at a comfortable hotel which you can walk to from the airport. You can see it from the airport but a bit of a round about route. However, I was flying from LGW and certainly did not pay Pds 1.99! Breakfast was in a nice cafe (hotel gave me a voucher) around the corner the next morning which was used by locals and it was good. I then took took the metro to the city of Valencia.
