John Said,
We at ryanairdontcare have been sent this information today....Some words are changed to protec others...Shame on you ryanair....Charity my arse......
Hi John,
Hope all is well.
Just thought I would let you know about Ryanairs criminal activities that they have been commiting against all crew.
A friend of mine from ...... has just informed me that crew unfortunate enough to be put on airport standby have been FORCED to SELL "Chairty Calenders" in the departures lounge and baggage drop desks.
So She went down to the departures lounge for 3 hours and while there tried to sell calenders to try keep her job for longer.But she didnt just sell calenders she sold her dignity!
But she called back to crew room to do a flight of just over 2 hours duration so instead of the £30 for airport standby she was paid £26 so all the selling she done in the terminal was done for FREE
Why is this is such a huge issue?Well Ryanair has broken the rules that they laid out for crew to avoid over stressing and exaustion:
Have a look at this chapter from the SEP Manual:Particulary the one about Airport Standby and the last bit I'v highlighted!
RYANAIR
SAFETY AND EMERGANCY PROCEDURES CHAPTER 1
1.15.7.1.2 The Commander shall in special circumstances which could lead to fatigue, and
after consultation with the crew members affected, reduce the actual flight duty
time and/or increase the rest time in order to eliminate any detrimental effect on
flight safety.
1.15.7.1.3 Ryanair shall ensure that:
• The Commander submits a report to Ryanair whenever a FDP is increased by
his/her discretion or when a rest period is reduced in actual operation, and
• Where the increase of a FDP or reduction in rest period exceeds one hour
(1:00 hrs), a copy of the report to which Ryanair PHFO shall add his
comments, is sent to the Irish Aviation Authority no later than 28 days after
the event.

1.15.8.1.2 Airport standby shall count in full for the purposes of cumulative duty hours.
1.15.8.1.3 When on airport standby, if a crew member is required to report for a flight duty,
the allowable FDP is calculated using the start time of the standby duty. In such
a case airport standby shall be added to the duty period referred to in 1.15.5.1.1
and 1.15.5.1.2 for the purposes of calculating minimum rest.
1.15.8.1.4 If a crew member is not required to report for a flight duty, airport standby duty
