Well, the price will probably drop quite a lot over the next several years, pagroove. Once it gets going and a few competing companies join in, while it may never be as cheap as taking the bus, it will get more affordable.

Hopefully Michael O'Leary will never get involved in the whole space flight thing, though. I can already imagine the scene:

Yep, the ticket is £5. However, if you want to use oxigen it'll be £15000, please... :P

:lol: And the special suit you have to wear will be another £100000.

Fun fact: Michael O'Leary bought a taxi license for his Rolls Royce (or whatever he is driving), which allows him to circumvent the Dublin traffic jams by using the bus lines.

:) He therefore has to take fare paying passengers (at the rate agreed by the Dublin Council) - if you see him - flag him down - and if he fails to stop - report him and he'll have his license revoked.
