Ryanair to allow passengers to ‘smoke’ onboard.

[Anthony T]

Ryanair, today (20th Sept) announced that smokers no longer have to worry about long flights without a cigarette as it launches a new range of Smokeless Cigarettes to ensure passengers get their required nicotine hit without breaking the law by ‘lighting up’ onboard their aircraft.

In a recent survey over 24,000 Ryanair passengers said they would like to smoke during flights. However, smoking on commercial flights has been illegal since the 1990’s but now to cater to passengers’ demands Ryanair has introduced Similar Smokeless Cigarettes, which look and feel like a real cigarette and deliver a small amount of nicotine through inhalation – passengers do not light the ‘cigarette’.

Ryanair’s new Similar Smokeless Cigarettes are available to passengers over 18 years of age and are sold in packs of 10 onboard all Ryanair flights for just €6. Similar Smokeless Cigarettes contain no toxins or chemicals and are harmless to the user and to those around them.

Nicotine and harmless should not be used in the same sentence

Exactly - harmless to those around them, but the nicotine is just as harmful to the user, of course.....

[Hugh Jarse]

A bit like the ad for Nicorette patches - "You get a measured dose of therapeutic nicotine"...

Bollocks!
