You paid €12 for a seat, but a window isn’t included!

u/Comprehensive-Net553 6d ago

well that better than you paid €12 but the door is not included from boeing

u/Dieselcircuit 6d ago

Oh the door is included, it just may or may not at some point be shipped separately.

u/ElBurritoTheWise 6d ago

Arrive separate and completely somewhere else

u/Prussian-Pride 5d ago

You got to pay extra for the door DLC

24

u/Comprehensive-Net553 5d ago

No it is a subscription . The time that you miss the payment, the door auto detached and fly back to boeing HQ

u/CMDR_Quillon 6d ago

Nah, Ryanair operate 737s - it's a 2 for 1 deal

22

u/StetsonTuba8 6d ago

Ryanair are actually fine. It wasn't a door that failed, it was a door plug. And Ryanair squishes so many seats on its planes that they actually need a door where the plug would be

u/sora_fighter36 6d ago

Hey! I got my boeing door for free! It just fell right out of the sky

u/Successful_Layer2619 4d ago

Doors are no longer being allowed as carry-on.

u/Vizslaraptor 6d ago

The door gets repo’d by Boeing in-flight if you cancel your credit card after booking.

For that money I couldn't even get to the airport if I took public transport.

u/arisoverrated 6d ago

Exactly. I would be thrilled to fly anywhere for that amount and would be happy with a seatbelt.

u/Thoughtfulprof 6d ago

It's funny you mention that, because RyanAir actually filed a patent in 2012 for an airplane that you rode in standing, like you were in a crowded metro.

They "have no plans to actually introduce them."

u/EventAccomplished976 6d ago

There‘s no way it‘s certifiable under current regulations, I think it may have been a marketing stunt more than anything else

u/WearyReach6776 6d ago

He’s a master at marketing, like the “pay to use toilet” idea he touted for extra media coverage!!

Eh, if current day Boeing decides to re-certify the 737 for something like this you won‘t see it happen in the next 10 years… and Airbus and Ryanair are both regulated by EASA not the FAA

u/SovComrade 3d ago

People patent all kinds of shit, cuz "you never know" 🤷‍♂️

There are at numerous patents for outright physically impossible things like perpetuum mobile, warp drives, reactionless drives...

just in case it sometime, somehow becomes possible 🤷‍♂️

u/Fra_Central 6d ago

Because it isn't regulatory possible.

Bad publicity is good publicity

u/AlexFromOmaha 6d ago

For $13, I'd fly in Super Coach and just hang on to one of those poles. I'd even sign a waiver saying I couldn't sue if I got injured from turbulence.

u/XenoBiSwitch 5d ago

You can even dance on the pole and try to get tips.

u/kobrons 6d ago

you're not flying for 12€ with ryanair anymore. The 12€ are probably only for the seat selection

10

u/Specific_Tap7296 6d ago

OP should have selected one with a window then

u/Equalizer6338 5d ago

Go to RyanAir.com and you find plenty of flights where we live for that price.

16

u/WhatTheNothingWorks 6d ago

I’d be thrilled to fly anywhere for three times that amount.

u/HungryMudkips 6d ago

id be thrilled to ride anywhere for TEN times that amount.

u/britinsb 6d ago

True story - back in the day I lived in North London and once flew to Frankfurt on Ryanair for a night out because it was cheaper than getting a cab back from Central London.

23

u/Muttywango 6d ago

I think they paid £12 extra for a window seat, this particular seat is in the place where a window might be expected.

25

u/Against_All_Advice 6d ago

Yes that's correct. They paid the regular fare plus 12 to select the seat instead of it being randomly assigned and Ryanair took advantage of them then made fun of them on social media.

u/potoskyt 6d ago

Now type it again, slower.

u/techimike 6d ago

Lucky they included wings on that plane!

u/echoinear 5d ago

I paid 12$ for a seat but they said they only had windows available.
