21.06.2010 RYANAIR introduces optional larger (20 kg) checked-in bag allowance
Ryanair, the world’s favourite airline, today (17th June) announced that passengers can now choose a larger (20kg) checked-in bag allowance for €25 as an alternative to Ryanair’s standard (15kg) checked-in bag allowance which costs €15. Passengers who require a second checked-in bag can purchase an additional 15kg allowance for €35.
Ryanair continues to encourage passengers to travel light, by snapping up one of Ryanair’s approved Samsonite carry-on bags when booking their low fares Ryanair flights, which will allow them to continue to save by travelling with Ryanair’s free 10kgs carry-on bag.
Ryanair’s Stephen McNamara said:
“Ryanair continues to encourage passengers to travel light and save even more by leaving the checked-in bags at home and taking advantage of our 10kg free carry on allowance, and our great value Samsonite bag. However, passengers who do require checked-in luggage can now purchase a larger 20kg bag allowance for €25 or our standard 15kg bag from €15. Passengers can purchase our checked-in baggage allowances at the time of booking or subsequently through Manage My Booking on Ryanair.com.”
