Take note…

Ryanair has announced that they’re introducing the option of checking-in on their flights up to 60 days in advance.

It’s part of their plan to introduce improvements in their service under Year 4 of its “Always Getting Better” programme.

But, you will only be able to check-in if you’re a customer who purchased an allocated seat for your flight with Ryanair.

In a statement, Ryanair said: “All Ryanair customers may select and purchase their preferred seat online, both on the Ryanair.com website and mobile app, from the time of booking right up to 2 hours before their scheduled departure, and in turn can check-in online and on the app, from between 60 days and 2 hours before their flight.”

Customers who don’t wish to purchase an allocated seat can check-in between four days and two hours before their flight and will be randomly allocated a seat free of charge.

Commenting on the announcement, Ryanair’s Kenny Jacobs said: “We are pleased to introduce 60-day check-in for customers who purchase an allocated seat, the latest customer initiative as part of our “AGB” programme, doubling the check-in window and providing more choice to consumers.

“While we continue to innovate, the one thing that won’t change is our low fares, and our customers will still enjoy the biggest and best choice of destinations, with the most on-time flights and a fantastic onboard experience, as we continue to grow our fleet, traffic and routes.”

This is one of a series of announcements over the past number of weeks by the airline.

Just last week, Ryanair announced a new partnership with Spanish airline Air Europa that will allow its customers to book long-haul flights to 20 routes throughout North, Central and South America through the Ryanair.com website.
