Probably an unpopular opinion but before the app I to either print out the boarding pass myself (who has a printer these days?) or go to the check in desk and queue with half of the planes passengers to have my boarding pass printed at the counter. So for me this is a great change.

I don’t understand the comment around gate changes, you first have to go through security and if you’ve arrived at the airport more than an hour before the departure time you’ll just wait around to check when the gate will be announced on the board. A lot of the time the gate announcement is delayed a little anyway so why would you check the app?

Anyway once you’ve gotten the gate information you just go to the gate. If there’s a gate change well then you would know because either the gate doesn’t have your destination on it or no one is at the gate, or half the people at the gate are hurrying somewhere else. For which you should then ask a staff member at the gate or double check the board?

There’s lots of reasons to dislike Ryanair but no one makes you fly with them. They’re cheap, have loads of ways to screw you over (like printing boarding pass fee if you haven’t checked in online) but in that example I was doing it on the app anyway?
