Overview
- Ryanair moved the rollout from November 3 to November 12 to ease the transition after the mid‑term break.
- From that date, the myRyanair app becomes the only way to obtain a boarding pass, with downloadable, home‑printed passes and routine desk printing withdrawn.
- Printed-pass exceptions remain where local rules require them, including Morocco, most Turkish airports except Dalaman, and Tirana in Albania until an expected switch in March.
- The carrier says checked‑in passengers who lose phone access will be boarded using sequence numbers or given a free reissued paper pass at the airport.
- Campaign groups Silver Voices and Age UK say the policy disadvantages older and offline travelers, while Michael O’Leary defends the change and says the airline will be reasonably forgiving early on.
