Ryanair Planning To Charge Customers for Using Toilets - Now that is Cheap!
Recently Michael 
O’Leary the chief Executive of Ryanair the Irish low cost airline based in Dublin with the main hub located at London Stansted airport, announced they may charge its customers £1 for using the toilets on their aircrafts. Isn’t that cheap? With oil price getting back to normal, rather than reducing air fares and providing more services, airlines such as Ryanair have now resorted to the crudest way of unbundling.
I just wonder how anybody could think that they could charge customers to use the toilets on the aeroplane, oopps Michael O’Leary thought so, I’m sure he’s thinking millions of passengers every year flying on Ryanair, by charging £1 each time they use the toilet, they could make millions, from customers just using the toilet. What a Genius?
Imagine going to a restaurant paying for your meal and deciding to use the toilet and not being able to use the toilet until you to put money in the slot to unlock the toilet door, or Checking into a Hostel or Hotel Accommodation and being told that the charge to use the toilet is not included in the room price.
Imagine the plight of the customers who travel by air, who are paying a hefty sum for an airline tickets, when they will also have to shell out more money for different services, even for using a toilet. Let us even accept it for a moment. What will be the charges of using a lavatory then? 
It starts at £1 were will it end? And if somebody has an upset stomach, will such a customer get bulk discount or special return customer tokens for the toilet?
When in the air, customers have no choice, other than to use toilets provided by the airline. Can nature’s call be made into a tool to make profit? All this is making airline customers go crazy. With the airlines withdrawing one service after the other, there is a lot of outcry. I think it is time that the passengers assert their importance. The authorities need to question the costs and revenues of such companies.
I know the airlines are exempt from all sorts of legal restrictions on charging their customers for everything, the most annoying part of this, is they can legally do it
There are plenty of incidences of flight delays, rude staff, over charging and the situation is getting worse. It is high time that the customers stand up united against such weird announcements. Wonder what shall be the next. Charging customers for farting, puking or even a charge for the oxygen used during the flight? Don’t laugh it could be coming soon.
Will the madness, of these extortionate charges, to travel by air, ever end?
