Major airline warns of boarding pass change for all passengers - what you need to know - Nottinghamshire Live

Passengers must use the Ryanair app for digital boarding passes starting November 12 or face extra fees, with free airport passes available for those without devices.

  • On November 12, Ryanair will require digital boarding passes accessible only via the myRyanair app, scrapping printed passes, Ryanair said.
  • The company framed the move as lowering airport costs and fares while cutting 300 tonnes of paper annually to create a faster, smarter, and greener travel experience.
  • Operationally, the change means passengers who have checked in online but lack a smartphone will receive a free boarding pass, while those who haven't checked in face a 55 fee at airport check-in desks.
  • By the airline's estimate, Ryanair says 206 million passengers already use digital boarding passes while 20% of passengers do not, leaving 40 million journeys potentially affected.
  • The move has prompted criticism, with campaign groups accusing ageism, while Ryanair says it will show flexibility for passengers needing paper passes, as Morocco requires them.
