I wish it was only Ryan Air, every other company does that nowadays. Every time I travel alone I end up switching seat a couple of times to let couples and families sit together.

They once wanted twice as much as booking another ticket to change a name...

It's to combat ticket resellers.

.. and Ryan will say "fuck clients' money"

Which is fair and should happen. You're going to pay it anyways, but now they need to tell right up how much it'll be.

I travel for work, only once I've ended up being overbooked on a flight in Europe, and that was when I booked the ticket like two hours before.
