Ryanair CEO's latest plan: replace toilets with seats

I'm not sure if he is serious about this, but I'd hate to be stuck on a flight at the back of the plane. (overheadbin.msnbc.msn.com) Ещё...

It's people like CEO Michael O'Leary who are killing the commercial flying experience. I find it appalling that he wanted to charge customers to use the toilets and now attempting to replace them with seats. I've never flown on Ryanair but from what I've read they make Southwest look like Netjets.

I don't think I'd be that insulting to NetJets.

Well, that would kill things for a diabetic. I'm not at the depends stage yet but you put bathroom planning into any travel plans.

Remember DayJet, the daydream of Ed Iacobucci, a former IBM exec which went under within a few weeks from inauguration. They charged $300 to 400 per seat for a short hope from say Miami to Gainsville, FL on cramped Eclipse jets which had no potty. A 737 with only one pilot and only one toilette is a sure trip to failure and chairman O´Leary knows that, he is just trying to get free ad.

I would hate to be stuck on the plane sitting next to someone with mother nature calling. O'Leary is nothing but an attention getter. Stop talking about it Ryanair and just do it. It's a PR stunt. Nothing more. Like to see the outcome how much he saves, but also how much more money he loses.

I thought I'd add this comment to my own post. Since I am stationed in Europe, I fly RyanAir fairly often. I've had some really great trips for less than 100 Euro, but we have all heard the saying "You get what you pay for." Flying on RyanAir is an adventure, sometimes arduous, sometimes amusing (it's amazing how well you can live out of a small backpack). If you want full service, fly a major carrier and pay for it.O'Leary is famous for making outrageous suggestions just for the publicity. It's free advertising for him.

*sigh* Really?! ONE toilet? And if that goes bust, then what? 30 minutes into a three hour flight what do you do? And if an airline ever had the audacity to charge me to use their toilet, I'd pull a "Depardieu" and go right on the floor!

Hey Howseditis,

I used to fly for an airline and had a passenger do just that in the aft galley. She got up on final approach to take a dump. The Flight Attendents locked the lav as they always do as part of their landing prep. When the woman couldn't get in and after the FA's told her to take her seat and hold it until after landing, she disappeared into the aft galley and went. She was arrested and halled off.
