Greetings Martha,

Pop a mail to Paul and/or the other mods and I'm sure that that situation will be sorted.

I have proposed a few tutorials from them in the past and they largely have come up trumps!

Lists are not as I have often said "written in stone"!

Bes to you,

Tony Sweeney

Hello Paul,

What is your fixation with Ryan Air?

Are you going to do the same type of tutorial on Aer Lingus?

Hi All,

I hope this will help some in booking their flights on the Ryan Air web
site. I have tried to include Supernova users this time by inserting some keystrokes but generally the navigation of the site is mostly universal to all screen readers. This is not a perfect site to work with so again I say
have patience and "practice, practice, practice"

Paul.

Notes for Using Ryan Air Web Booking Form

Entering the dates of flights required:
On this first page we will fill in the following details.
Notes to remember:

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
