Ryanair increases free carry-on bag size by 33% across all European airports

Ryanair expands free carry-on bag size to 40 x 30 x 20cm from September 4, giving passengers 33% more cabin space

Ryanair allows each passenger to bring 1 free carry-on bag on board, but these bags must be capable of fitting under each passenger’s seat.

Ryanair has completed the rollout of its bigger carry-on bag sizers at its 235 airports across Europe, the airline announced on Thursday. 

From September 4, all Ryanair passengers can now bring a bigger, free personal bag up to 40 x 30 x 20cm, which is 33% bigger than the EU standard free carry-on bag of 40 x 30 x 15 cm.
