Would you like some bullshit with that pee?

How would you like to pay $1.60 to pee?

Well, that's what the CEO of the European budget airline, Ryanair, wants to start doing on their Boeing 737-800 jets.

Michael O'Leary is serious. Serious about reducing the number of bathrooms from 3 to 1 for 6 extra seats, put in a credit card reader so you have to pay 1 pound (or about $1.60 US) for a few moments of claustrophobic alone time.

I get reducing the bathrooms from 3 to 1, especially since their usual flights take roughly an hour around Europe. And more seats = more money. But charging people to use the bathroom? I mean, seriously. There's even a nasty rumor going around that he's toying with the idea of requiring passengers to load their own luggage onto jets so as to save the cost of having baggage handlers.

Once again, I say, "Really?"

Unless those flights cost $10 round trip, I'm not taking it.

Don't think we Americans are immune from fee raises, however. Starting this Wednesday, United Airlines will start charging extra $5 at the airport if customers don't pay their checked-baggage fees online. And US airways will follow suit in July.

This is a clear case of, "We can do whatever we want because you either take the flights or you drive for 3 million miles." I want a teleporter and I want a teleporter NOW!
