10 years ago I traveled to some countries in Europe, I was on a budget and I chose budget airlines as my main transportation, according to my experience these are the cons and pros:
Cons:
- You are only allowed to travel with a small carry on suitcase, by the end of my trip I had to get rid of my clothes because my souvenirs were more important to me. They weighed my suitcase very carefully.
-They charge you for everything. You really have to be aware of what the cheap fare includes otherwise you'll pay a lot more than what you expected.
Pros:
-It's very affordable! Compared to other transport you can save a lot of money on transport.
-Single service class. No differences between the passengers, we are all treated the same.
I think that low cost airlines are the best option if you are on a direct flight, a short route and have small luggage. Also, nowadays you don't need the plane's entertainment, just download your favorite playlist and some series episodes to your phone and you'll be fine.
