Ryanair Enforces £55 Airport Check-In Fee Under Digital Boarding-Pass Rule

Ryanair says the shift cuts costs, saves paper, streamlines rebooking.

Overview

  • Since November 2025, Ryanair requires digital boarding passes in its app for all flights.
  • Passengers who skip online check-in face a £55 or €55 airport check-in fee unrelated to baggage.
  • Online check-in opens 60 days with a paid seat or 24 hours with a free seat assignment, and it closes two hours before departure.
  • After checking in, travellers must download or save the pass to a smartphone or tablet.
  • Travellers without a device can get a printed pass at the airport at no extra cost if online check-in was completed in advance.
