Hello all,

I had a nightmare in changing my Ryanair flight for the 13/2/21. Alicante to Gatwick 

The system would not let me change the flight details on three different devices.

After trying to contact Ryan air on live chat, they eventually agreed to change it their end.

It’s just be aware that there may be some issues with changes to flights. Booking seems to be ok, it’s just the changes or alterations.

I nearly went mad doing this today and will probably be the last time I will use Ryanair

for sometime.

Cheapest is not always the best. you get what you pay for. I always fly BA no problems what so ever.

Yes very true

I did not use them for cost sake it was the only  flight I could get 

for that day to Gatwick.

Yes I am not sure that I would be using them again through choice.

Mind you there may not be many airlines

left soon.

Has  Ryanair cancelled all flights from this month till April?Their website is still advertising them.I have booked a flight to Newcastle for 30th.January.Previously my flights to Scotland had been cancelled but I hoped I could get a train to take me there from Newcastle.The travel agent says it is still scheduled,which I can see on-line,& I haven´t received any cancellation by phone yet,but I believe that Mr.O´Leary has said in the media that he is shutting down flights from Alicante & other Continental Airports from next week until April due to the new PCR tests required for UK nationals as well,on arrival in UK.Visitors are not coming to Spain in sufficient numbers it seems to make it viable until then.If so,this will be yet another cancellation & I need to get back as I have sold my property here.

Ah I don’t really know.

I managed to change my Ryan air flights from January to February and then again

until April. I did struggle with it as I had to get Ryanair chat box to change it as the system would not let me change it.

You could go to their website and go to the Chat function as they are usually quite helpful. You won’t get through on any phone numbers as they never seem to answer phones.

There are some flights operating, but don’t

forget you will need a PCR test ( negative

result) or equivalent acceptable test.

Look at the GOv.uk website as it has all

The requirements in there. For UK and Spain.
