Different deadlines: At the airport: By when the luggage must be checked in.
Ryanair will soon close check-in for baggage 20 minutes earlier - and argues that this will benefit passengers. Why the low-cost airline has a point and how airlines generally handle check-in.
Ryanair is changing its check-in deadline for luggage to 1 hour before scheduled flight time, 20 minutes earlier than before, starting November 10 for all its flights. This means passengers with luggage have to plan ahead to avoid missing their flights. The airline argues that this change allows passengers more time to go through security and passport checks and reach the gate on time.
The deadline for luggage check-in varies among airlines, airports, and routes, and passengers are advised to check the specific deadline for their flight. About a fifth of Ryanair's passengers travel with large luggage that needs to be checked in.
