QUOTE by sty
Less toilets means also less liquids on board reducing the total weight of the aircraft and thus less fuel consumption.

=> Never had physics/biology ? ( not offensive meaning-I know my english is also not perfect )

If you have to **piss in a plane are not the liquid is carried by the plane !
Or it's carried in you or it's carried in the toilet, but it's carried anyway !

Or the people must all left the liquid before ( but then it must be a reasonallly tought in advance ) the flight or
after... ( same story ).

Sorry, thus weight has nothing to with it, the weight of 2 toilets or seats with people
is equally i think, ( take americans :!: and i rest my case ! :geek: haha)

Off course the Irish won with advertising already ( SHIT,AGAIN , the bastards ! ) :evil:

Tend to disagree as:

- The "human" fluids are carried around for upto four flights as the 25 minute rotation doesn't allow the tanks to be cleaned.
- There's also the toilet cleaning chemicals that have to be flown around for four flights.
- The diffrences could be marginal, but in aviation every kg counts...

What a sh*tty discussion ;-)

A bit technical, but the 737 with 4 overwing exits has a maximum pax count of 189. Even the 737-900 has a max pax count of 189. That is why they had to add 2 extra doors on the 737-900ER, so they could seat more pax in the same aircraft. It has got to do with evacuation requirements.

OK, I didn't know that! Rest my case, no more seats on the plane!

So I guess that pilots and stewardesses will also have to pay to ease themselves on board ?

Perhaps this would be an idea: recently I visited the lavatory at a gas station. To enter, you had to throw 50 cents into a coin slot. However, the machine printed a ticket which you could then use to get 50 cents discount on items bought in the gas station shop. Perhaps Ryanair might do something like that? Discount on amenities bought on board if you go to the lavatory, and free lavatory use if you buy amenities before you go?

This is a STUPID idea and i do not agree that any publicity is good publicity. The people in charge of that flying nut house need to have their collective heads examined! Assanine ideas such as this one serve as just cause to lock these people away in a padded cell :lol: :lol: :lol:

This safety chart will soon apear in ryanairs cabins. Especially now the hard work of creating them is done alraidy. The creator of it will gain a fully free flight worth about 20£*.


* No meal, drinks, toilet visit or emergency provision included.

Safety card:
1/
You can love it but as o'leary saw it, realism is just a penny away :mrgreen:
2/
For the designers of the card: just repace the 747 into 737 !
You forget : give the mask back to the disembarkation officer.
3/
or forget the card, crash anyway is cheaper than repairs !
insurrance companies will pay for them and ryanair could
gain more profits of the lost weight of masks/oxygen/swimsuits/inflatables/... :lol:
