Ryanair set to charge €20 to reserve seats

RYANAIR is to charge passengers €20 to reserve seats and skip the queue on a return flight.

The airline will introduce the service next month on its Dublin to London Gatwick and Malaga routes. It said that if it proves popular it will roll it out on other routes.

Customers will be able to book seats in the front two rows of the plane and in the emergency exit-row seats, which offer more leg room. For the €10 price each way customers will also receive priority boarding.
