Ryanair's new baggage policy comes into effect from tomorrow.

If you're flying with Ryanair soon, make sure you don't get caught out by the company's new baggage policy, which comes into effect from tomorrow (November 1st).

Under the new rules, non-priority customers will only be allowed to take one "small personal bag", such as a handbag or laptop case, into the plane's cabin as long as it can fit under the seat in front.

Meaning you will no longer be able to put a second bag in the hold for free.

Passengers who want to bring an even bigger bag will have to pay additional charges ranging from €6 -€10, unless they are a priority boarding customer, which already commands an additional fee.

From 1 November, passengers who want to bring a medium-sized suitcase of up to 10kg with them have two options:

  • They can pay between €6 - €8  to put it in the overhead locker above them.
  • Or they can pay between €8 - €10 to check it in.

But be careful if you're planning to cram as much as you can into your smaller bag! Because your carry-on must fit into the sizing box designed by the airline at the boarding gate.

Here's a video from Ryanair explaining the changes:
