Overview
- From Wednesday, passengers will no longer be able to download or print paper boarding passes and must present the digital pass in the myRyanair app to board.
- Ryanair says travelers may still check in on its mobile website, but boarding requires the pass stored in the official app, reinforcing its app-first model.
- Customers who checked in online but lose or have a dead device, or who lack a smartphone, will be issued a free boarding pass at the airport, with desks remaining open.
- Some departures still require printed passes, including airports in Morocco and most of Turkey plus Tirana in Albania, according to the airline.
- The company cites near-80% current digital uptake, lower airport costs and up to 300 tonnes of paper saved annually, while airport check-in fees still apply to passengers who arrive without having checked in online.
