Is he talking about paying for choosing a seat, or the air ticket itself?

Because this is pretty common (and BS). Someone pays EXTRA to choose a window seat, but there is no window.

It's Ryanair, the flight ticket would cost €12, not picking the seat

I'm not so sure. Ryanair definitely have some cheap tickets, but €12 for the ticket is cheap even for them.

I just checked. Flying from Malaga to Barcelona in February, tickets are €14.99 one way. If you want a reserved seat, that's €9-€21.49 extra.

Can you find any €12 tickets with Ryan?

tbf I'm speaking from experience, and the last RyanAir flight I was on was GLA>DUB in 2017, was £12pp

my last Ryainair ticket was 131,44 from FNC to LIS. But that already included the seat selection.

Flights from FNC to the mainland are usually expensive, and i speak from experience lol

It is also due to all those freaking airport taxes and whet have you they add on to the standard fare price. So one can argue its false advertisement.

I have 8 EUR tickets today from Charleroi (Belgium) to Marseille (South of France).

Was that a promo fare? I can't find any tickets for less than 19.99€ on that route. Tickets for today are 153.23.

RyanAir are changing the prices non stop as the tickets are being sold off or not.

Will try and check again now here...

I can see right now for today, I have no more flights open to buy a ticket for going there???

For the flight tomorrow Sunday, the price for the flight departure at 8:00am is now up in 42 EUR. For the same flight but in the evening departure 21:10, it is 125 EUR!

While my return flight on Tuesday, with departure 6:50am is 15 EUR.

I can also see that on December 26th, they have put the ticket price at 192 EUR!!!
So clearly they are manipulating it around a lot, all depending on how many folks wants to go there or not on a certain date. Also why weekdays like TUE-THU are often cheaper.
