Subject: [vip_students] Tutorial:Booking flights on Ryan Air web site
"Revised"!
Hi All,
I just made a few small revisions to my original notes and rather than
have them all spread across several emails I have resent the original
tutorial including the notes. Please disregard the first two emails and
use this as the final set of notes.
Notes for Using Ryan Air Web Booking Form
Accessing the Ryan Air web site:
1. Open the start menu and press "R" for run.
If you are already within Internet Explorer, just press keys, "Control +
O" and type in or paste in the web address given.
2. When the run dialogue box opens paste in the following web
address;
www.ryanair.com/en/cheap-flight-destinations
Note, some people may find that to open the run box they will need to
use keys, "Winkey + letter R"
3. After typing in the web address, press the enter key and wait
for
the site to open up.
Note: It would be handy to create a shortcut to this web address on your
desktop and call it Ryan Air so you will have easy access to it in the
future.
Now begin booking your tickets by completing the following instructions.
Page 1: Entering flight from and too locations.
Entering the dates of flights required:
On this first page we will fill in the following details.
Notes to remember:
- A combo box is a list of something, for example, it could be
list of
countries, or a list of dates etc.
To open up a combo box, use left alt key held down and at the same time
press the down arrow once. To then continue moving through the list of
items in the combo box just use the down arrow.
- A checkbox usually just gives an answer to a question posed on
the
form or web site and hitting it with a spacebar will check it, "activate
it"
- An edit box is just a box you type in something too such as
your
first name, last name
