I Took the World's Cheapest Flight

Ryanair is said to be the safest airline - they've got over 400 aircraft but have never had a fatal crash - but flying with them can be hazardous to your mental health.

[@kobyschechter8163]

We have low cost carriers in North America but it’s impossible for them to reduce the cost of flying to the magnitude that the European carriers can. I flew Spirit Airlines from LGA to FLL in June 2023 and I paid just over $200 for the trip. That is less than it would’ve been on a traditional airline like Delta or American Airlines but holy moly $8? That is crazy cheap. The complaints about Spirit in my opinion are definitely overblown. I’ve flown with them a couple times and it wasn’t bad at all. You just need to know what you’re getting yourself into and thankfully I come from an airline background. My grandparents worked for TWA. In December 2001, they were fully bought out by American Airlines. My grandmother was a travel agent and my grandfather was a power plant aircraft mechanic. My grandfather retired three years before 9/11 in 1998. My grandmother kept working in Manhattan until the 2008 financial crisis and that forced her into retirement.

[@DavidGTravels]

Nice video! It was extra interesting to watch and compare since I just uploaded my own video about flying Ryanair a few weeks back (even was a Buzz operated flight like this one). The only thing I'd point out is that this isn't the world's cheapest flight by any measure I can think of. The cheapest flight I recall having personally flown was a 5 euro Easyjet flight, but from time to time there have been ways to book low-cost carrier flights in Europe and beyond for prices below $1! But honestly with the current ultra-restrictive baggage policies it's very often cheaper to avoid low-cost carriers, not to mention that it's a nicer experience.

Being european and having flown with Ryanair hundreds of times, I must say that, apart from the strict luggage rules made to trick the passengers, the rest of the service is not as different from other airlines. Even when it comes to included food and drinks, flagship airlines are getting worse every day. Just flown with Lufthansa last week and got only a complimentary small bottle of water, not even a snack. As for the leg room, it's not that different (it used to be way worse when Ryanair had those thick seats), and they have extra leg-room seats just like the other companies. There are of course some minor details that flagship airlines offer, but it's not a big difference, to be honest. You also mentioned the lack of screen, but I never saw a screen on a plane flying within Europe, whether it was Ryanair/EasyJet/WizzAir/Transavia or Lufthansa/KLM/Iberia/Air France. As for the price, my father once did Porto-Madrid return trip for 4€ with Ryanair. I also did Porto-Marrakech (so, technically, it's even an intercontinental flight) last December for 28€ return flight (9€ one way, 19€ the return). So, this is hardly amongst the 1000 cheapest flights ever 😄

In America we have some low cost carriers such as Spirit, Frontier, and Allegiant but it’s impossible for them to reduce the cost of flying to the magnitude that the European low cost carriers can. The cheapest base fare I’ve ever gotten on Spirit Airlines from LGA to FLL was $62 one way.
