View More Ryanair News Tags :Continental Europe, Ryanair Ryanair announced that it will continue its drive to increase the number of passengers checking in on-line by increasing baggage and airport check-in charges from 05-May-08. From this date Ryanair’s checked in baggage fee will rise from EUR9 to EUR10, while airport check-in fees will increase from EUR4 to EUR5. Ryanair encourages passengers to avoid these charges altogether by travelling with its 10kg hand luggage allowance and checking in on-line.
Announcing these charge increases, Ryanair’s Head of Communications, Peter Sherrard, said “40% of Ryanair passengers currently avoid queues at both check-in and boarding by availing of our free web check-in service... on-line check-in is faster, more efficient and costs Ryanair less. There is no doubt that it is the future for air travel. We will continue to increase baggage fees until half of our passengers check-in online, which will allow us to reduce check-in and handling costs and pass on these savings to our passengers.” |
