End of check-in 24 hours before departure. Ryanair introduces the biggest change in years

Ryanair is implementing changes in November, including an extension of the online check-in window from 24 to 72 hours before departure. Passengers with random seat assignments will benefit from this new rule, while those opting for paid seat selection can check in up to 60 days in advance. Additionally, check-in desks for baggage will now close 60 minutes prior to departure, requiring passengers to arrive earlier at the airport. This change aims to reduce delays and queues during busy travel periods. New self-service baggage kiosks will also be introduced, allowing passengers to print baggage tags and check in without waiting in line.
