Overview
- Recent reports place the start date on November 12, though some earlier guidance cites November 3, so passengers are advised to check Ryanair’s official updates for final timing.
- Once the policy begins, most travellers must present boarding passes in the Ryanair app and printed copies will generally not be accepted.
- If a phone is lost or its battery dies after online check-in, Ryanair will reissue a paper boarding pass at the airport free of charge and staff can board passengers using sequence numbers.
- Digital passes are not accepted for departures from Morocco or for Tirana–UK flights, where a printed boarding pass is required.
- Published fees include a per-sector airport check-in charge (£55 generally, £30 from Spain, £40 from Austria) and a £20 fee for a replacement boarding pass at the airport.
