Imagine flying with your kids on an airline that charges you to use the bathroom. Believe it or not, Ireland's Ryanair is reportedly considering charging passengers one British pound to use the potty. Airline executives say the toilet fee would lower ticket costs. Keep in mind, this is the same airline that pioneered charging customers to check bags, use a check-in desk, and use a credit card to book online. As one of my colleagues joked, "They'll charge you for a drink, and even charge you to get rid of it." Or maybe since airlines stopped offering free food and drinks, they figure folks shouldn't need to use the loo anymore. But if you're flying to Ireland this summer with your little ones, make sure you have plenty of spare pounds in your purse - or some extra pull-ups.
