What documents do I need to travel with Ryanair?

Asked 2 years ago
When traveling with Ryanair, passengers typically need to present a few essential documents. The primary document required is a valid passport or national identity card, depending on the traveler's nationality and destination. For flights within the European Union, a national identity card may suffice for citizens of EU countries, while non-EU travelers will generally need a passport. In addition to the identification document, travelers should ensure that their travel documents meet any specific entry requirements of their destination country. Some countries may have additional documentation requirements, such as visas or proof of onward travel, so it is prudent to check the relevant regulations prior to departure. Travelers should also keep in mind that Ryanair requires a printed boarding pass or mobile boarding pass to board the flight. It is advisable to check in online before arriving at the airport to avoid additional fees for printing boarding passes at the airport. For the most current and detailed information regarding travel documentation, travelers are encouraged to visit the official Ryanair website.
