I've been looking regularly at ticket prices on Ryan Air for a certain destination. Why do they fluctuate (mostly upwards) on the same day and in the course of a few hours? Like when the wind changes, so do the ticket prices! I was going to book based on the price I saw this morning but guess I should wait till the price goes down again, or what?
Frustrating!

I'd check Ryanair's additional fees - they can add up fast and before you know it, your cheap ticket costs as much as any other airline. Unless they are the only airline going where you want to go, they'd be my last choice.

I doubt the price will go down, they usually go up. Not all seats can be sold at the same price, so once sold out then seats will be sold at the next price tier.
I don't enjoy flying Ryanair, however I find myself flying them occasionally as they fly where I need to go and they are the cheapest for my next trip (Sweden next week), even with baggage fees and the cost of getting to the airport.

TX girl, they are my last choice and my only choice since this is a spur of the moment idea and the cheapest even with all the fees added.

Odin- The weird thing is the prices would be down and a few hours later up. The price tier makes sense though.

Will check now and book or not depending on today's fluctuation.

Thanks.

Don't forget to print your boarding pass before you get to the check-in counter with Ryan Air.
