I don't think the Paris comparison is a good one though as the best option is to go bu Eurostar from the UK or high speed rail (TGV or Thalys) on the European mainland. A better example would have been Barcelona El Prat and Girona, Reus. I agree with Issue 5 and would add don't just position yourself by the door but stand by it and make sure that it is a door that the driver will open first as sometimes they only open one when disembarking. Finally the issue of carry on bags annoys me as some passengers carry on more than one bag or one that is obviously above the size limits and fill the overhead lockers. Ryanair is right to fine anyone €30 for flouting these rules. If you travel by Ryanair follow their T&Cs and travel light. Good advice here.
