The CEO of Ryanair, Michael O'Leary, encountered a real surprise at the Luvida restaurant located in the town of Navan, Ireland.
The head of the Ryanair airline, known for its policy of charging separately for every convenience, found himself in a humorous situation at this restaurant. Although O'Leary enjoyed the detailed menu, what caught his attention more than the food was the "additional services" on the bill.
Ryanair-style bill
The Luvida restaurant prepared a special bill for O'Leary, which included the following "additional services":
- Extra legroom — €7.95
- Payment for a better seat — €9.95
- Booking a quiet area — €19.95
In addition to these, the restaurant also accounted for the actual meals: a salad, shrimp, toast, and a bottle of Pinot Grigio. The total bill was €142.30.
How did Michael O'Leary react to this joke?
The restaurant management later admitted that they "didn't have the heart" to charge these fees. Michael O'Leary received the joke very warmly, took pictures with the restaurant staff, and left a generous tip.
Ryanair style has come to life!
This incident spread quickly on the internet and was warmly received by the public. As Ryanair passengers know well, every convenience in the company – even priority boarding or extra legroom – is offered for an additional fee. The Luvida restaurant brought this very concept to life, unexpectedly surprising O'Leary.
This situation was not only an interesting PR move but also a good example of connecting with customers through humor. For O'Leary, it was perhaps a funny lesson!
