Posted on July 21st, 2010 by admin in board minutes | 4 Comments »

i have booked a holiday in biarritz, coming home i have 35 mins to get off plane in london and board plane going to dublin, flying with ryanair and they take no responsibility for connecting flights that are late

Ive done it before but
1 i was flying into the same terminal ,
2 i had no luggage
3 I was arriving on a ryanair flight ( ryanair overstates there arrival time to statistically be more punctual ) so i arrived a bit "early"
4 i was be myself so i legged it

Tricky but possible you end up running through these corridors that’s like being inside a bendy straw so dont get lost

I wonder if you actually have 35 minutes because the time ryanair states gate closing is never accurate ,people are always still boarding .If this is how you are taking you 35 minutes i would add 10 mins .

Warning if you are going to do this and have never really ran for a plane with this little time .Please please take my advice ,when you go through the metal detector and have to take off your belt .Forget the plane ,take some time and put that belt back on .Your about to sprint and yes it is as bad as you think it is when your pants fall down when running

    Most likely not, but it depends on how far you will have to run to get the new flight but you have to be through security for the ryanair flight about 25 minutes before its due to leave so I think its a tight one to be honest

    No you will not have enough time for the connection even if the plane arrives 10 mins earlier.

    Ryanair will not interline your bags . Which means you will have to collect bags, and collect new boarding pass at transit desk which would most likely have closed your flight.

    Best if you just buy a new ticket. Really.

    It is cutting it a little fine! even minor delays can mean you miss your connection, and if you have checked luggage, forget it!
