An important point to note about many of the Low Cost Carriers is that if they say the check-in closes 40 minutes before the flight, they mean *exactly* 40 minutes! They make their money by having a very rapid turn around and if they miss their departure slot, it's coming out of their slim margins.
So if you turn up *one minute* late, no matter if it was traffic or the wife being taken to hospital, it's tough, you've missed the flight and you *won't* get a refund, you'll have to buy a new ticket.
Be warned!
