Ryanair rolls out major change to baggage allowance from today - Liverpool Echo

Ryanair's new free personal carry-on bag size is now 33% larger than the EU standard, benefiting passengers across 235 European airports, with stricter enforcement on oversized bags.

  • From today, Ryanair rolled out a larger free personal bag across all airports it operates to, Thurs, 4 Sept, with resized bag sizers to fit the bigger carry-on.
  • As part of wider adjustments, Ryanair increased its underseat bag allowance by 20% at its 235 airports across Europe, following EU proposed rule changes.
  • Under the new rules, the free personal bag expands to 40 x 30 x 20cm , and passengers can bring a second bag via Priority Boarding or buy checked bags during booking.
  • Enforcement will include charging passengers who fail to comply the boarding gate checked-in bag fee, and Ryanair is scrapping the 80 staff earning cap for catching oversized bags.
  • For travellers, Ryanair travellers can now carry larger bags through security screening, exceeding the EU standard but still smaller than easyJet's 32-litre allowance.
