Will They Charge Extra For a #2?

From Chicago Tribune:
"Budget carrier Ryanair has asked Boeing to put credit card readers on the bathroom locks of its new planes. The airline also plans to eliminate two toilets on the planes and replace them with six additional seats, which means more passengers will stand in line longer for the privilege of paying to potty. This can't be good for beverage cart sales."

TW: I don't think the elimination of free airline "food" has been greatly missed. I know Ms. White does miss the free blankets and pillows though. This new innovation does seem to be headed down a bad path. Charging for standard bodily functions appears ridiculous. Obviously oxygen rationing is coming soon.
