As it happens I booked a flight just over a week ago.

Tim and Darragh have covered the accessibility problems I found, but in my 
experience the problem with booking was more about usability than 
accessibility.  For instance, I completed part of the booking and then reached 
the part where I needed to book assistance.  So, I went off and read the 
appropriate literature they provide on that one and when I got back to my 
booking, it had timed out.  The same happened when I got to booking luggage and 
again when I read the terms and conditions.  I had to start the booking about 
four times.  Of course, I cantered through the last time 'cos I'd had so much 
practice, but lord it does try your patience.

I selected check-in online and you can't go back to print your boarding pass 
until at least fifteen days before the flight.  As I'm not flying until 22nd 
May, I've still got that one to come.  Will let you know how that goes later.

Dear all,

Anyone used Ryanair's online booking lately? What's it like from an  
accessibility perspective?
