    allegedly Ryanair have dissmissed reports that they are to charge passengers for the use of oxygen masks during the sudden loss of cabin pressure,on its flight from bristol to barcelona. michael o leary said i know we own the oxygen on all our ryanair flights,but its obvious it must be free of charge.:rolleyes:

    One thing you cant point the finger at Ryanair for is safety. Considering the size of their fleet and the amount of flights, it is exemplary. I would be worried about the flying with the following however Take note people

    I was annoyed but not surprised to hear idiots complaining about the lack of information from the pilot regarding the situation. The thought that the pilots were fairly busy trying to save their lives by concentrating on the emergency descent and landing obviously didnt cross their minds.

    Mind you, it might be an idea to allow the air hostesses talk to the passengers while they have their oxygen masks on...just to keep them calm...and that's ALL airlines not just ryanair

    What information would you think that the cabin crew would have in this situation?

    This thread started with a "joke" which some people seem to have taken as fact:rolleyes:

    Yeah my girlfriend decided to jump on the bandwagon on this one saying how awful it was that them poor people were sitting there with no idea what was happening. I reckon the pilots time is best served securing the plane and just hoping that the people on board could forgive them for not fully informing them of what had happened.
    Also i'm sure that if there was a total loss of cabin pressure it would be quite noisy on the plane and would probabaly be impossible to hear any announcement anyways! Also wouldn't the captain be wearing an oxygen mask too, can't be expecting him to take that off to make the announcement!

    i think there is enough evidence here for a restraining order :)

    back on topic though i agree with te fact that there should be some communication with passengers but not from the pilots there job is to fly the plane and especially in emergencies . the stewards should have spoke to all the passengers to keep them calm and relaxed which would be nearly impossible but at least its a little reassurance
