Disgusting really, yeah sure they are a business and making money is their sole priority but those prices are just exploiting people. I hope nobody goes on them so Ryanair have laid out money that they wont get back! You can fly to Vegas and back for a similar price!!

It's easy to say "oh nobody should take these flights" but for anyone who's limited in when they can travel... Parents with school age children, teachers or anyone else who can't get the Friday / Monday off work, etc. these flights could be useful.
Certainly all the flights from Cardiff are fully booked up at prices ranging from £320 to £400 so these are in line with that.
I'd originally been hoping to go Friday evening to Sunday afternoon so if I wasn't already booked up I'd be looking at these.

Hmm. Tom Jones in Vegas or Gareth Bale in Bordeaux?! Think I'd rather spend my money with a flight to Bordeaux! (Although if you had said either a flight to Bangkok or Bordeaux, I might have been swayed)
I've paid a similar price for my flight - Birmingham to Bordeaux. Although this is with Flybe, not Ryanair. I've flown with Flybe to a many an away game at a bargain price, I guess it all equals itself out in the end......

I think at this stage anything that enables more Wales fans to get out to Bordeaux should be welcomed. Even if the prices are crazy.

tend to agree with you, it is good that they are putting on extra flights. shame about the silly prices. Also be nice if they considered us up North, extra flights put on from Cardiff and Bristol is great but not much help for the Northerners, ahh well!
