Baggage, credit card charges driving Ryanair’s €663m ancillary revenue haul

BAGGAGE charges, priority boarding and credit card fees helped Ryanair take in €663 million in ancillary revenues last year, more than any other European airline.

The figure puts Ryanair in a top five list of airlines around the world when it comes to ancillary or extra charges.

The top three airlines on the ancillary list are US airlines United, American and Delta, according to a study by airline consultancy IdeaWorks and Amadeus, a clearinghouse for airline transactions.
