I fookin hate them. To book 15 people the flights are £120! Surely the more you book the cheaper it should be!!  Good god , that's £8 EACH! Blatant rip off if you ask me.

£120 isn't really that much to £15k. The stag do is more important. If it's too much hassle I'd just pay up.

If they're that bothered they can sort it out to get it free. If you're that bothered and want piece of mind then perhaps you should just pay it yourself.
Can't you email a link to the flights for the ones that do have net access and tell them to do it asap? Then if they have to pay because they're spazzers and don't sort it out they'll have to pay up themselves. I assume they've already sunk other costs into this, likelihood is they will not want to miss out.

£120 each is a bit different though, didn't realise that.
Just split people into groups of four so you all pay a tenner. If they can't work it out then conclude they are retarded and should be put down.

But as soon as some of the seats start going the price will go up anyway, won't it? So the people who book first will get cheaper seats but number 14 and 15 may have to pay more, so you should still split the cost across the group.
Ryanair and such like companies are great though, yeah the service is poor and you end up a few miles from the city centre, but for cost it's fantastic, pay peanuts you get monkeys but it does the job.

(muppet advice) Whoever is doing the booking just make sure and get the names 100% in agreement with passports - changes afterwards will cost a fortune and it's a big money spinner for them (muppet advice)
It's fine to moan about them, but without cheap airlines I doubt you'd be having a stag night in Lithuania would you?

No neville, baltic air and lal also fly there. Flights are about £40 more, but its the times. Ryanair fly at 7am, the others 6pm. The best thing to do I guess is just keep looking. Not booking til nov 7th anyhow, so we'll see.

Sis back and awaits Sippo going ape shit when he realises food and drink cost extra on board too. I guess its the benefit f hindsight in your case, but it is standard practice for the budget airlines to charge for absolutely everything. I'd take your own bog roll just in case

I remember coming back from a weekend in Amsterdam, waiting and waiting for our luggage, Rory McGrath was on our flight and was so visably pissed off at having to wait for his luggage. I thought to myself, if you want to pay £10 to get back from Amsterdam you have to put up with stuff like this. Use first class BA if a little luggage delay upsets you so much.
Cheap flights are quality, even if you do have to pay for add ons like glass in your windows.
