I think imajes is referring to the fact they they did actually consider that idea a while back.

Wikipedia suggests that Ryanair release these outlandish ideas once in a while to get some free publicity. While I obviously can't verify that I'm personally inclined to believe it. Since even restaurants have regulations which force them to have toilets when they are over a certain size I can't imagine this idea would be legal. If it is then it'd only be a matter of time before someone who had one too many coffees before getting on board sued them for breaching their human rights by not letting them go to the toilet!

I'd agree Ryanair take the opposite model from what was described in this article but they have also highly optimized their approach. No seat back pockets for you to dump your rubbish etc.

You could avoid that by making it a rebate - pay the usual price for the flight, then if you don't use the toilet at all you can claim x back afterwards.
