  • He specks alot of sence. If Michael O'Leary ran the country, Ireland wouldn't be long getting out of the mess it's in

  • RYANAIR IS FUCKING RUBBISH worst airline ive flown with in years

    CHARGE YOU THE EARTH NO SERVICE THE PLANE IS DIRTY HORRIBLE STAFF

    in future im sticking to easyjet yes you pay a bit more but at least the flights are better

  • yea seats that have shit on it

  • complete legend.

  • Working class hero this guy. Has made flying affordable for the average Joe. In the USA this airline would be extremely popular.

  • FAT TAX IS SHOULD BE IN PLACE AS THEY TAKE TWO SEATS TO SIT ONE FAT ASS.

  • If toilet tax will indeed be introduced, I will stop flying Ryanair. Period.

  • @MsDC1974 unfortunate choice of the word "period"

  • @aIteredbeast I'd rather be Irish than be a hick and gillet from Austin.

  • @aIteredbeast No offense taken Limey grease monkey. You have enough oil spilt to keep your huts lit for the next five years. Now get to work cleaning it up.

  • KEEP CLICKING 0:00

  • This guy and Stelios has brought air travel to people who were previously priced out of it. Smart people go cheaply and others pay more for the services they want. I see the logic and applaude these companies.

  • @GaryGSF That's the way Ireland changed the aviation industry! Gotta hand it to them.

  • Just saw this tool on tv hes there suggesting cabin crew helping to land plane if a problem occurs,or the co pilot serving tea on quiet stretches.. His words..safety high on his agenda., realllllllllllllllllly!!!!!!! Ryan air is the biggest joke of an air line....ryan air has a history of horror stories and with a clownshoe like this guy running, lol give the money away to some charity lol lol lol, now whos lying you clownshoe

  • ryanair all the way!

  • i have flown with rynair, aer lingus, delta and germanwings. the most efficient by far was ryanair. the cheapest by a long way and it's the only airline i've flown that's always arrived on time.

    knock ryanair all you want, but given the choice i know who i'd choose to fly with.

    you want a free drink? or a few inches extra legroom? fly with someone else, but pay for the pleasure, and possible arrive late.

  • Its easier just to charge for seats......

  • You might all complain ..but you fly with them.....?????????????

    You want better service use someone else....simples.....

  • Charge for oxygen masks?!?!!?!??!?!!?

  • He charges you for your coffee spills during turbulence.

  • If you want to stop people going to the toilets, take the two "bloody" toilets away then, fat tax could be as discriminative as gay tax, black tax, white tax or whatever tax, what if someone has a glandular problem, and makes them fat? Ah well at least he has a sense of humor

  • this bloke is a fucking legend. love the informal approach, you would never hear stelios talking like this guy

  • @rudyyoungblood2223 A legend haha what a faggot you are.

  • lol, What a communist he is...

  • Michael O'Leary, I've been flying Ryanair twice: Forth and back. And I didn't choose, 'cos I didn't know better. Know what? Never again Ryanair.

  • He'll be Straping people to the wings next!!

  • this guy is a total idiot, who just believes in fleecing passengers in any shape or form

  • There goes of irelands most intelligent person................o wait!!!!!!!

  • He is a creep.

  • you cant get rid of toilets, what happens if someone gets diarrhoea etc.

  • @shakin2009 pay for a plastic bag

  • This guys a cunt.

  • michael o leary makes all these suggestions for publicity, and it works, is everyone commenting here not talking about ryan air? his new ideas generate more revenue and cut advertising costs as the more absurd they sound the more publicity they produce. this man is a genius. you can say what you want about him but it is the people who insult him that make him his money at the end of the day.

  • Most of the comments here go like this "He's so stupid, he's an idiot, naive"... he's stupid and naive enough to the tune of £360 million...

    I think he's proven his business acumen.

  • I really don't understand why people complain about Ryanair..... you fly witht hem ebcause they're the cheapest, you don't fly with them for quality, so if you want a better quality flight go with British Airways,

    If you want a cheap flight, go with Ryan air...... does it really matter if you have a seat you can recline for a hour and a hlaf flight...

  • wow u suck, u make ryanair look like that, that is why i would never fly it

  • Why not fight back just like i did and buy a jaktogo it is a luddage bag and a coat they can''t reject you and you can make a statement  Well Done Jaktogo ;''

  • I have just done a Huge turd and it would be a shame to flush it, does anyone have Micheal O'learys address including postcode ?

  • If they remove the toilets,people will find a way to go to the loo,for example bring a bottle and pee into it,or shit in the sick bag...as long as you dont get caught like Neil Prendeville,women can buy a contraption called a "Freshette" which is used by women mountain climbers..."i would love to see Michael o leary selling "Freshette's" to a bunch of women who cant afford it,they would probably piss all over him,he would probably like it....

  • @Elevationary Peeing in a bottle would run the risk of getting arrest for drugs offences ..... pocession of cannopiss !!!!

  • Comment removed

  • i have just given birth to michael o'learys twin, i done a great big SHIT in the toilet !

  • i believe no one can chasing your talking mister CEO, even 10 racing horse. i'm sure u will win the game.

  • Michael O'Leary .... dubbed as the dumbest dumb ..... the low-fares-for-high-charges guy, who really thinks that charging would attract more customers ..... think about it fellas

  • hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha Michael O Leary is soooooo fucking stupid!!!!!!!!! Ryanair is the worst airline ever. BA, lufthansa and air france is not screwed. Ryanair is. Free seats= $0.

  • 'Free' Bollox this crook would charge you for talking on is Planes....

  • John Power Why do ryanair and easyjet refuse jaktogo to advertize in the in their on board magazine are they afraid the will lose extra money on extra weight at the check in /gate ‘’ wizzair had no problem’’

  • it funny coz i like him he is so honest

  • O'leary has all the grace of a pig farmer and the cunning of a fox. This is the Irish at it's best. A true shiteologist

  • Is this real fucking toilet tax fuck ryanair

  • GENIUS !

    

  • GENIUS !

  • Why can't he just charge for the seat like normal airlines?

  • Comment removed

  • @aviationnation10 I'd say he rocks when you rock his rocks you renter

  • this man is arrogant! however he is a genius!! and fucking hilarious aswell.

  • The guy is a chode and a complete jackass, but I do see "some" logic in the way he does business. Regardless, that doesn't excuse the fact that the company treats its employees, cabin crew, pilots, and customers like shit.

  • Naive idiot

  • This dude has NO CLASS and No pride.I bet he'd hire african slaves as flight attendants(if he could) there is a difference between traveling economically and travelling like shit

  • Screw this guy, he is the biggest turd in the world with NO CLASS. BOYCOTT Ryanair

  • Waht idiot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

  • he is so Stupid!

  • Is all a big lie! he already said, era of the low cost is about to end..

  • he's great

  • best ceo ever hes so succesfull and still down to earth he rocks

  • every idea ryanair has is GENUIS... of course... :P

  • They already are the cheapest tho, even cheaper than Easyjet! This idea of having vertical saddle seats, and chargin fat tax etc is a joke. Just becasue you choose to travel on a budget does NOT mean you should be treated like cattle. I would find it very dehumanising in all fairness, even if it is only for a 1 hour flight. What are your thoughts?

  • Creative ideas? Six of us went to On a Paddys weekend to Krakow. On return our flight was postponed so we enquired with that arsehole Michael Ryan Air o leary to get back to Dublin. The price €550. ( yes 550 euro) each!! What a creative idea you arsehole!

  • @Seanmcdhuibhne then dont fly them retard its dear if u book last minute

  • creative ideas.....most of them unworkable but at least some of them can be implementable.

  • He is damn leprechaun

  • This character is morally bankrupt. My pater used to be a bigwig for a respectable national airline back in the days when you could charge the punter whatever you felt like & making huge profits was as easy as falling out of a tree. Then this O'Leary upstart came along and ruined it for everyone.

  • This Horrible Bastard would let suicide bombers on his planes as long as he could charge them, BOYCOTT THIS CROOK !!!!

  • Bussiness Clown.....

  • standing room haha

  • Comment removed

  • you can't charge to go to the bloody toilet!!!!

  • @UltimateSonicFan0001 They do in some train stations

  • BOYCOTT RAYNAIR. IT IS SHIT RUN BY A GREEDY WANKER MICHAEL O'LEARY.

  • O Learyis the death of aviation

  • Damn and I thought we in the US have fuckups running our airlines to the ground

    E.G. Phil "We fixed it" Trenary, John Ornstein, Glenn Tilton, Doug Parker, Hulas Kanodias etc etc etc. and we had the "Prince of Darkness" Frank Lorenzo back in the 80s

  • The consummate genius of self publicity by floating outrageous ideas to inflame the tabloid slackjaws, thereby generating FREE publicity and most schmucks fall for it, kudos O'Leary.

  • He doesn't care about human life, just profits. People like this are already stinking rich and it makes you wonder what their agendas really are. A copilot will always give a much higher chance of survival in an emergency than a steward/stewardess; it's like saying a ticket inspector can take the controls of a train if the driver has a heart attack, or if a bus driver has a heart attack letting a 3 years old drive it. His suggestions are a retardation in flight safety for unnecessary profit.

  • @splattyfish

    Yeah yeah...bla bla bla !!!!

    My reply: ticket Bruxelles - Turin: 2 euro !!!

    Death incidents from a Ryanair flight: 0 since 1985 (when was founded) !!!

  • @Lucian86 2 EUR? Really?

  • @Yipezzh

    There are 1 euro tickets too; you have to be among the first ones to buy it for that flight !!!

  • Why would any airline passenger in his/her right mind fly on Ryanair?? Sure, their standard ticket price is lower, but when you factor in all the extra garbage they charge for, even BA is about on par in terms of total cost. If price is that big of a factor, I'd choose an airline like Easyjet instead. Consumers have to realize the only way they can bargain is through their wallets. Don't pay for airlines like Ryanair if their practices make you so sick.

  • He is going to kill aviation.

  • This clown is a moron of the highest degree.

  • @stevederebey thats an embarrassing comment - you are aware that he runs the most profitable airline (all of his own making) in the world?

  • @erroneous169 Michael O'Leary is one of the most dangerous and moronic airline "executives" in the world. He is worse than frank lorenzo and EE Cord combined. His employees are nothing more than slaves and his operation is an accident looking for a place to happen. Anyone who buys a ticket on this operation is nuts. At some point, the chickens will come to roost.

  • @stevederebey You don't have to fly with them if you feel that pathetic about their service. They have an impeccable safety record, go check it out.

  • @Highwaycrazy You couldn't PAY me enough to fly on this dangerous fleabag outfit. They treat their employees (slaves) like shit and do not maintain their airplanes. the chickens WILL come to roost at some point. Hope they don't kill too many innocent people when it happens.

  • @stevederebey You appear to be suffering from a profound lack of knowledge, which I'll assume is the fact you don't live in Europe. If you research Ryanair's safety record, it's second to none. They're not like Alaska Airlines re: flight 261. Not to mention the fact a maintenance employee alerted the US FAA and did they ground this plane? Nope. They did nothing until 88 lives were lost. At least we have regulation here in Europe to prevent accidents like that.

  • @Highwaycrazy And you seem to be suffering from a bad case of delusional thinking. This guy has done more to damage the aviation business in Europe than anyone in history. He pays slave wages, treats his employees horribly, and has clobbered labor at every opportunity. If this is your idea of "success", you are truly a lost cause. Go ahead, enjoy your $5 fares - the chickens will come to roost at some point. Keep O'leary over there. He is a total moron.

  • @stevederebey Not really, its practicality. Tell me about Wal-Mart and low wages. Over here, EUR10.00 per hour is a reasonable wage. If it wasn't, they wouldn't be working for Ryanair. The legal Minimum wage is EUR8.65 per hour. The aviation industry would be toast without Ryanair who actually brought true competition between airlines, unlike before... Ryanair's safety is remarkable. I researched this. By the way, they hope to start transatlantic flights soon.

  • @stevederebey They have one of the youngest fleets in the business!

  • @Yipezzh So what. Age of fleet does not compensate for bad management and inexperienced, tired crews. the chickens will come to roost. It's only a matter of time.

  • @stevederebey Everything has danger. I think if Ryanair was going to kill anybody, they would have done so by now. Safety inspectors seem reasonably satisfied with them too.

  • @stevederebey 1.I believe 16.68 an hour is far from slave wage. and 2. I'm actually a very experienced cabin crew member.

  • Comment removed

  • @stevederebey Accident looking to happen? Be more precise please

  • I reckon this guy didn't kiss the Blarney Stone, he ate a chunk of it.

  • MICHAEL O'LEARY IS THE MASTER OF ALL AIRLINES

  • scheiß ryanair wollen sogar stehplätze

  • Take the cockpit out, remove the pilots and have a 'Stop' & 'Go' button.... voila! another extra 6 seats!

  • charge you for breathing???? O.O!!!

  • So, when will they put us in cages?

  • Adding costs aren't driving down air fares!?

    its actually cheaper to go with BA to many countries Ryanair serve... and not get dropped off 30 miles from where your supposed to be... at 11pm.

    Ryanair are a dreadful.

  • Comment removed

  • Subhuman scum, but a genius businessman if you ask me. He would have people stored in racks if he could.

  • @jusmeig: Genius businessmen in my opinion do care for people and take responsibility for their staff and things. O'Leary might be good in making money, but that alone doesn'tmake him a good businessman in my opinion.

  • Legend

  • Comment removed

  • O Leary you are such a dirty loworder stinkin stankey slimey mankey sleekit bastard.

  • This man is seedy. The are cheap in all respects, starting with a cheap CEO. Ryanair: the most hated airline that people use because it used to be cheap, like Aldi or Lidl. However nowadays they are pushing it too high, haressing passengers too much with this 10Kg zero gramms 1 piece hand luggage policy. They now have scales at the boarding counter and weigh the handlugagge. If you have 100 gramms more, u got to open it and put on the clothes, then its ok. Otherwise 35 euros charge.

    I hate it!

  • @francisco8104 Fuel prices have increased and realistically, the only way to offset this is to impose weight limits on luggage. Otherwise, fares would rocket. Ryanair have made it easy to travel by offering low prices. I certainly won't be complaining about this because I never want to pay EUR300 for a flight to Paris (like one time). Thanks to Ryanair.

  • i love ryanair and never had a problem with them. panarama is a lot of crap any way full of lies and totally one sided

  • LOl Mr O'Leary, by the looks of it BA are already screwed because of these cabin crew strikes.

  • scumbag

  • The whole country is run for the benefit of people like this, that's why he gets away with it.

    British justice: the best that money can buy.

  • How much cash, or should that be ash did you make today then Michael?.

    All that money you're paying out to staff to sit around doing nothing.

    Losing Millions of pounds a day.

    How much did you earn today, Sunday 18th April 2010.

    Minus £1,000,000, minus £1,500,000, £2,000,000 even?.

    .

    Tell us Michael about your profits since Wednesday 14th April 2010.

    Worrying himself sick over which way the wind will blow for the next 6 months at least. All that Worry Michael, is it worth it, is it.

  • Charging you for the oxygen masks? Bastard.

  • @Raffzeee if you need to use the oxygen masks I think price will be the last thing on your mind

  • @scuz55 Oh but yes, if I survived the accident I would be raging!!!

  • @Raffzeee Your comment made my day , I fuckin lol'd hard .. awesome response :)

  • I love Michael O Leary

  • @missnowdiabolical i think hes a twat

  • people should stop complaining about this airline, its far more succesfull AND definatly more cheeper than any other airline, even with the taxes

  • @centralseat no jet2 are about the same price but a better company.

  • take 2 toilets out, add 6 seats and lower fares for everyone by 4%... GENIUS

  • @killafunkuk And with a 189 seater plane, that would make it 195 seats. More passengers, more money for Michael. :-)

  • @killafunkuk

    but in the future your seat will be free, so 6 x 0 = 0, and fares you will get it jammed up your hole for 4% or is it 10,20,30% and some cunt will give you a hot leg while you are standing at the back of the plane attempting to read your paper, just before you die on a bumpy landing cause you were not strapped in.

    i love michael oleary but i think he was on drugs today and thank fuck he is not in charge of plane safety. ( dont relpy what is a hot leg )

  • Michael O'leary thinks always outsite the box, that's why Ryanair is so hugely successful.

  • God he loves to talk

  • Good business man, but completely obnoxious and petulant. That's pretty much O'Leary in a nutshell.

  • low fares me b&%£ox! biggest tricksters in the aviation game. what in the name of god are the aviation regulators doing to combat this underhanded, devious airline. they are a law onto themselves. introducing extra costs with absolutely no hindrance from any regulatory body.

    boycott ryanair. fly easyjet, aerlingus, british airways, bmi. at least you know what you're getting for your money.

  • Absolutely briliant market strategy. Brilliant ideas. This is the use of socio-economic strategy to prove the need to charge too little money for flightsa and yet absolute comfort aand safety. All airlines need to amalgamate with Ryanair and make Michael O'Leary the CEO and the likes of British airways and others will not go bust. M. O'Leary is the founding father of Common sense! He is a legend!

  • Brilliant stuff!

  • Oh I see, so because you're honest about being a ruthless twat, that's somehow supposed to translate into roguish charm? Prick.

  • You seem so well informed - fly yourself do you?

  • Maaate, if only knew!

  • I studied the low cost model,and all it stands for.

    Ryanair comes out tops,in reguards to safety and regards to ICAO regulations compliance,not just with low cost carriers but Nation aswell.

    They have some of the best pilots in the world working for them,and the new'ist planes in the world.

    I fly Ryanair and feel safe knowing im flying with an airline thats never had a major accident in its 26 year history,how many other airlines can say that?

  • @SDPM101 hate to burst your bubble but aer lingus regional offers free flights just taxes and charges and normal priced drinks this starts soon

    Aer lingus have no major accidents in fact no crashes same goes for aer arann plus they have no toilet tax,ba suffered and recovered from the first 747 all 4 engines out and lufthansa are the same as aer lingus and aer arann so ryanair are actually the least safe and dearest airline irish and european plus they have had more than one major accident

  • @allboeing aer lingus lost two vickers viscounts in 67 and 68, the 67 crash killed 3 pilots in training and the 68 crash off tusker rock killed all passengers and crew on board. in the 1980s an aer lingus shorts 360 landed in a field with minor injuries to some passengers.

  • @harrymtsally yeah i forgot about that but ryanair have killed way more people it was just never released to the public i cant tell you how I know for privacy reasons

  • @allboeing you should go into script writing for hollywood you have a wild imagination

  • @harrymtsally no i think u should mate im the one tellin the truth

  • Wooow,you certainly do have a wild imagination indeed sunshine!!Ryanair worst injuries were to the two crew members onboard the CIA incident,they included spinal and kneck injuries,thats the worst the has ever and god willing will ever happen to any crew or passengers with Ryanair.

    Where did you phatom that statement up?Privacy...Lol...

  • Actually allboeing Aer Lingus offer A free meal,yes.But charge unrealistic,exagerated Fuel Surcharge which they add on without you knowing it.

    And yes as harrymtsally said,there have been numerous Aer Lingus,BA,Lufthansa accidents over the course of there history,all to do with techincall errors onboard there planes.

    Ryanair's most serious incident involved a serious engine failure due to flocks of birds and nothing techincal,so your statement is nullified.Even at that,no serious injuries

  • @SDPM101 I hate to break it to you but ethiopian airlines 90 dead=ryanairs fault they never notified ethiopian of a fault that was within the aircraft they just made a cover-up story and theres no surcharges infact once aer lingus put me in first class simply because the economy class was over booked

    Aer lingus also have no surcharges

  • Ethiopian Airline didnt maintain the a/c to the required standard,due to lack of parts available to them,and ignored weather warnings and still took off,Ryanairs planes are the best in the business simple as,no buts,no ifs,they are maintained to an exceptional standard.

    # €40/$60 or equivalent each-way per passenger applies to New York, Boston, Chicago and Orlando.

    # €55/$80 or equivalent each-way per passenger applies per flight to other long haul destinations.

    No Surcharges?

  • dude o leary said it himself he thinks it was one of his employees fault what i will give him is he also said if it was that person will be fired

  • Listen I enjoy a good online debate,but aslong as its factual,I cant entertain this kind of milarkey!

  • @SDPM101 this is factual you should be one of those people know where they let the kids bate up if their good in third world countrys only way your going to make money u thick fucking bastard look at all the comments,the ratings everyone hates the airline every airline can make their motto europes safest airline but in books and more than 1 billion peoples opinion ryanair are the 3rd unsafest airline your not booksmart mate so go fuck yourself

  • Im sure it is,in your world that is.I know the company better then most people,and your the typical hatter,god only knows why,but anyway.Most people who go online dont go there to post good comments just bad,like you,but yet Ryanair will carry more then 67million passengers this year alone,so it tell you something doesnt it,more then most other european airlines.

    And your clearly not booksmart with your "Sun News" lanuage either.

  • @allboeing Sorry sweetie, but we're not the 3rd unsafest airline... We're actually one of the safest.

  • @SDPM101 i dont want replys from you because my parents say i cant talk to people who dont know what their talking about and their going to call the police on you if you harrase me any further,goodbye you prick

  • Well sunshine all parents will activly encourage there children to try and talk about whatever comes to mind,including dreams and hilutionations,but anyway you keep it up,your a great contributor to an intellectual debate,tell your folks I said there doing well with there son/daughter.

  • your a fucking idiot mate ive seen behind that airline theyre fucking crap you dont know the ppl i know so go fuck yourself cuz no one wants to fuck u u retarded prick

  • And you are the typical Irish attitude,Hate whats best about our country!

  • I hate whats worst about the country ryanair,government(especially brian cowen or piggy as even my cspe teacher calls him,luke was first to say piggy)

    em as for you good luck in life cuase even mcdonalds would be ashamed to employ you and i certainly wont employ you in any of my current businesses yes im 14 and run online shops but there for smart people so you dont need to know about them enjoy re-doing junior infants and remember one more comment and garda could be involved

  • Yes your a typical "Begrudger",the normal Irish attitude of the purlance,but some day you'll learn,probly should have learned that in your CSPE class,National Loyalty and pride.

    Well sunshine running online business on YouTube doesnt count,those YouTube Dollers dont make any real money..Lol

    And actually im employed by an airport,this is why I know what I know,and why you dont know what you think you know.

    If your goina hussle with big minds on the web,expect to get owned the odd time :)

  • im not talking about youtube businesses im talking $250 a month shit I provide to websites without ppl like me you would'nt have youtube to pretend on and I now powerful ppl em my cspe teacher happens to be one of the best in the country so try saying that to the womans face i beat you it will hurt your **** oh wait i mean v***** and i didnt get owned you did now do you not understand if i report you your looking at 7 years in a cell with no toilet mate no fuck off harassing me

  • Ah I see,your talking about Google Adds,"Earn up to $5000 dollers p/m from your own home"..Lol..

    Im sure shes very powerfull indeed,she should have taught you how to use the english language properly and how to have an intelligent conversation,even for a 14y/o.

    Your points were fictional,untrue and vage on the subject of Ryanair so there for you have been owned:)

    7 years for a YouTube debate you lost?I see,tell your CSPE teacher to teach you a few things about YouTube and "debates" :)

  • resulted from that inccident,once again like the others.

    And whats this toilet tax milarkey?

    Ryanair are a low cost airline and safety is paramount due to the fact that they dont want planes going tech or losing them altogether!

  • @SDPM101 if that was the case the faa would'nt have named them the official un-safest airline

  • The FAA dont govern Ryanair,the FAA(Federal Aviation Authority) govern US airlines,not Irish,what your looking for is CAA!
