Overview
- The rollout is set for November, with most reports citing November 12 and some outlets stating November 3, reflecting inconsistent dates in current coverage.
- Customers must check in online and access their pass in the myRyanair app, or they face the airline’s airport check‑in fee, reported as £55 for most flights.
- Ryanair says the move will cut costs and remove up to about 300 tonnes of paper a year, with roughly 80% of passengers already using digital passes.
- Mobile passes are not accepted at certain airports, including those in Morocco, parts of Turkey except Dalaman, and Tirana, so printed passes are required for those routes.
- Consumer groups and some MPs have raised concerns about digital exclusion for older travellers, and the CAA’s fairness requirements under the Consumer Rights Act have been cited in responses.
