Ryanair Baggage Allowance and Charges

June 2nd, 2010 by Rob | Filed in Air Travel

Ryanair are continuing their drive to persuade passengers to travel with carry on luggage only. They have now increased their charges for checked baggage by between £5 to £10 depending upon the number of checked bags you have and how you register them.

With Ryanair charges for a checked bag now peaking at £80 Chief Exec Michael O’Leary defended the move by stating:

“We don’t want your money, we just don’t want your bags!”

Ryanair encourages all passengers to travel with just one piece of carry-on baggage which has the effect of reducing their own operating costs and the aircraft’s turnaround time. Ryanair has a generous 10kg carry-on baggage allowance providing the bag does not exceed the maximum dimensions of 55cm x 40cm x 20cm.

However, you must ensure that all your travel size toiletries conform to the current airport security regulations and restrictions for the carriage of liquids in your carry-on baggage, otherwise you will be forced to check the bag into the hold and pay Ryanair’s checked baggage fees as shown below.

Ryanair’s Checked Baggage Fees
Each passenger is permitted to check-in up to 2 bags with a maximum weight of 15kg per bag. The increases apply depending on the date of travel with peak rate baggage charges applying for travel in July and August *.

1st Bag – 15kg allowance per bag, per One Way Flight

  • £15 (*£20) if booked via ryanair.com
  • £35 (*£40) if booked via a call centre or at the airport

2nd Bag – 15kg allowance per bag, per One Way Flight

  • £35 (*£40) if booked via ryanair.com
  • £70 (*£80) if booked via a call centre or at the airport

So make sure you have done your planning for your cheap flight well in advance. As if you have 2 bags that are not allowed onto the aircraft you could face up to £120 of additional Ryanair charges for checked in baggage if you are travelling between July and August!
