It's why they're cheap though. I fly around Europe for 30 euro's. If this is how that works, it works. And after hundred+ flights with them, believe me, I have had my share or RyanScam. I just play their game and laugh.

The problem is that they affect people unequally. I do benefit from this stuff because I can navigate the UX struggle but many people can’t and these happen to be the not so fortunate people in society and most vulnerable.

It’s definitely why some stuff is regulated (ie: loan interest)

There is definitely room for budget airlines but the sort of dark patterns Ryanair employs is dishonest.

Personally I wouldn’t do business with someone who is constantly trying to scam me.
