In this post - detailed instructions how to buy tickets on the official website of RyanAir. The site is not supported in Russian, so I provide screenshots and translation into Russian. Read carefully - there are pitfalls. Like any low-cost airline, Ryanair, luring us with low prices, skillfully disguises additional payments. Let's figure out how to remove all unnecessary and get a really inexpensive air ticket.

Before buying a ticket, we will have to register on the site. Otherwise, the Ryanair ticket is not sold - verified. However, this is short and convenient - for subsequent purchases and check-ins for a flight, you will have to write less, well, all information about your flights is stored in one place - in your personal account. So, click "Sign Up"

Finding and buying a Ryanair ticket

Let's start buying a ticket. For example, in March I wanted to relax on the island of Mallorca (Spain). I already have a ticket from Russia to Barcelona, which means that now I need to buy round-trip tickets for an air flight from Barcelona to Mallorca.

We select the parameters “from where / where / dates / how many passengers” in the search form. Click the “Search” button (Let’s Go!)

In the photo: searching for flights from Barcelona to Mallorca on the Ryanair website

I choose dates from 22 to 31 March. We look at what flights are available and at what prices.
Yeah, there are three flights there and two back. First, we choose a flight “there” at 8-00 in the morning. Click on the price 9.98.

In the photo: choosing the right flight to Mallorca

There are three types of tariffs. We choose the cheapest - "Regular" at 9.98 euros.

Pictured: The cheapest fare usually doesn't include luggage.

Attention: Please note that this rate includes only carry-on baggage. If you need to carry more baggage, do not forget to purchase one more piece of baggage in the following steps. Let's look further. The price in the upper window has changed - it sometimes happens that the price fluctuates by 0.01 cents during the entire buying process, do not be alarmed.

In the photo: we choose the flight “back” - Mallorca - Barcelona

Now choose the return flight. By the way, pay attention to how convenient it is to compare prices for neighboring days. So, the flight at 6-30 am suits us, - click on the price of 9.98.

In the photo: choose the fare of the return ticket. Again only with hand luggage.

We check what we have chosen - once again whether the direction is correct (in this case, Mallorca), dates, time of departure and arrival, the total amount.

In the photo: checking all the data before paying for Ryanair tickets

As a result, the total amount is 19.97 euros. Click the yellow "Continue" button.

Ryanair Baggage Policy

Think again about what kind of luggage you will be traveling with: size, weight, what you will take. At this stage, you can also buy baggage allowance, - it will be cheaper to do it here than at check-in, and at the airport it will be even more expensive. In order not to pay for baggage at all, take only hand luggage with you.

hand luggage– baggage that you can take with you on the plane is ONE bag or suitcase no larger than 55cm x 40cm x 20cm weighing no more than 10kg and an additional “women’s handbag” no larger than 35cm x 20cm x 20cm (it can be a camera) – NOTHING more in your hands should not be!

If your luggage exceeds the norm, then buy it right away. Read more about baggage allowance on the official website of the airline.

Now you can only take a 40x20x25 bag on a plane for free. If the bag is larger or you take another suitcase with you, then upon boarding they will require an additional payment of 25 euros! Therefore, it is better to pay for luggage right away: if you want to take another suitcase with you, then 6 euros. If you hand over the suitcase as luggage, then 8 euros. The suitcase must not exceed 55x40x20 and no more than 10 kg.

In addition to checking the dimensions of hand luggage, check what is generally possible.

In the photo: we refuse a certain seat on the plane

Again asked to buy a seat in the cabin. We do not give in - we press the button “Ok, thanks”

We proceed to pay for the air ticket. Ryanair accepts PayPal and credit cards. A small commission is added for paying with a bank card - this is the norm for all low-cost airlines, it is impossible to refuse it, so we do not pay attention. But then there is one additional commission, which Ryanair cleverly slips us when paying by card.

To get started, fill in the name, surname, phone number, specify the email address to which the tickets will be sent. Fill in Billing address - your address.
Then we remember the final price - 20.38 euros. Now I choose MasterCard and fill in the card number. And here, - watch your hands - after entering the number, the total amount on the right changes to ...

In the photo: we observe whether the final price changes

... to the number 23.10 and translates into dollars! The fact is that Ryanair includes conversion at this place at its unfavorable rate. As a result, if our card is in rubles, hryvnia and other currencies other than dollars, then we will have to pay a double commission: 1. Euro to USD. 2. USD in Rub. We don't need this! Let it be better once: Rub. directly to Euro. How to avoid double conversion?

In the photo: we do not need the Ryanair exchange rate here!

Click on the inscription “Click here for more information” and uncheck the bottom checkbox there.

In the photo: we remove the double conversion when paying for a Ryanair ticket

The price is again in euros. We pay for our air ticket. All! Your purchase confirmation and receipt will be emailed to you.

How to check in for a Ryanair flight without additional overpayments

Buying Ryanair tickets is half the battle. The main thing is to fly this flight WITHOUT ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS. If you forget something, the amount of the fine may exceed the cost of the ticket itself. So what should be done?

Not earlier than 4 days and not later than 2 hours before departure, we check in for the flight on the Ryanair website.

In the photo: from a personal account

In your personal account, you can clarify information about your trip. Go to "My Bookings". There will also be a hint about starting online registration.

In addition, you can register on the site without entering your account. To do this, you need to find a six-digit code in a letter from Ryanair. Go to the site in the "Check In" section. In the window that appears, enter the booking code and your email.

In the photo: enter the code and your email

In the window that appears, select the names of the passengers, then select the seats (this is paid, you can skip it) and go through the registration. At the end of registration, the Boarding Pass and the download and print buttons will be displayed. Print or, if the printer is not at hand, download boarding pass to a smartphone.

Do I need to print my RyanAir boarding pass?

When registering on the site, the boarding pass can be downloaded to your smartphone in pdf format - I used it many times, there were no problems. The main thing is that there should be a QR code that will be read upon boarding.

Now there are more modern way: Install the RyanAir app on your smartphone, check in for your flight and open your electronic boarding pass in the app. In this case your boarding pass will remain in your smartphone, and regardless of whether you have access to the Internet or not.

If you suddenly lose a printout, a smartphone, or take unplanned luggage with you, then you will have to pay for everything at the airport. Forgot to register - 55 euros, forgot to print or download to your smartphone - 20 euros. See all rates.

However, it is not difficult to do everything right, and then you will not have to pay anything more than what you have already paid. You just need to carefully read all the rules of the Ryanair airline, get ready and fly calmly at ridiculous prices throughout Europe!

Life hack: how to find the cheapest Ryanair fares

This is not some kind of sale, Ryanair always has low prices for some destinations - you just need to know these destinations. I tell you how to find the cheapest destinations.

Select the list of departure airports on the first page of the site.

In the photo: in the center there is a list of departure airports

In my case, I chose Barcelona. Then select the direction "Where".

In the photo: click "Where" we go

In my example, I chose Mallorca. By the way, already at this stage you will be shown what are the minimum prices for the chosen direction. Farther.

Pictured: Ryanair's price calendar is surprisingly handy.

In the table that opens, we study on which days there are the cheapest flights.

If you have a different interface displayed, click here - it will open map low prices . And then, at the top left, indicate where you want to fly from.

Once you have chosen the lowest fares for both round trips, click the yellow button at the top and buy those tickets. The price calendar is the most convenient thing on the RyanAir website. On the websites of other low-cost airlines, for some reason, on the contrary, they left such tables.

Ryanair also has sales - airfare prices can even be from 0 euros!

Keep in mind that upon arrival at the airport, non-EU citizens must go through the “Visa check” procedure at the RyanAir check-in desk, otherwise they may not be allowed to board the flight. The only exception is air travel within one country.

Ryanair special offers

Ryanair's current promotions

Currently, Ryanair does not have sales, promotions or other special offers. Ryanair regularly holds discount air ticket sales, which makes it possible to buy Ryan air tickets inexpensively and in advance. Follow the news on the site site, in our in social networks and mailing list so as not to miss the opportunity to buy cheap Ryanair tickets.

Ryanair cheapest flights

In order to find and buy a Ryanair ticket at the maximum favorable price We recommend following these simple guidelines.

Firstly, the price of air travel is highly dependent on time: the earlier you manage to buy a ticket from an Irish low-cost airline, the cheaper it will be. Therefore, it will be most profitable to buy an air ticket in advance, because tickets with a departure date in 2-3 months, as a rule, turn out to be much cheaper than tickets with a departure date in the coming days.

Secondly, traveling experience of Anywayanyday clients shows that it is not direct flights that are cheapest, but flights with transfers.

Thirdly, experienced air travelers have this life hack: it will be much more profitable to buy a plane ticket on Tuesday or Wednesday than on other days of the week.

Fourth, do not forget about bonus program Anywayanyday: Points earned on previous flights and hotel bookings can be used to save money on new Ryanair tickets.

Fifth, we receive offers from the airline directly. Often Ryanair offers discounts for Anywayanyday customers. To buy cheap tickets, stay tuned for news and special offers.

Sixth, do not forget that the prices of the company's air tickets vary significantly depending on the specific date, so be sure to check the prices of air tickets for at least a few neighboring days. In this case, you can find and buy a Rhine Air ticket, which will turn out to be much cheaper.

The site has a “Price Dynamics” widget, which allows you to make such a comparison quickly and conveniently. When searching for a flight, study the prices for air travel for the next two weeks and choose the best option that suits you both in terms of cost and time.

Cheap plane tickets from Ryan Air are offered both by the official website of Ryanair and by the online service anywayanyday.com. You can also read reviews from Ryanair customers there.

And predicts changes in airfare in order to suggest whether it is worth buying tickets now or better to wait.

If anyone has forgotten what low-cost airlines(they are budget airlines), then we turn. Regarding the procedure for buying tickets on the Ryanair website, he wrote. And we also definitely remember about the excellent aggregator azair.eu, which specializes in low-cost airlines and knows how to select tickets “there, I don’t know where” and “then, I don’t know when”. Today's airhint.com service will be a great addition to it.

Pricing at low-cost carriers

The problem is that the pricing laws of low-cost airlines defy logic. The same Ryanair for neighboring dates may have tickets that differ at times in price, up to a difference of 20 euros and 200.

Pricing depends on many factors, from the time before departure (but not necessarily the closer to departure, the more expensive), current demand, day of the week, etc. However, pricing for low-cost airlines is much more complex than for conventional airlines, and is difficult to predict without the use of special tools, while prices can both rise and fall.

It is the airhint.com service that is engaged in forecasting. Its creators claim to have achieved 82% accuracy on Ryanair forecasts, whatever that means 🙂 Besides Ryanair the service analyzes prices for three more low-cost airlines - this EasyJet, Vueling and the largest low-cost carrier in the world, American Southwest. I hope that over time the number of airlines will increase.

For the calculation, the identified trends and data of past years in specific areas are used. I think that the service can be trusted, in any case, the probability of its error will be lower than our own, with independent predictions.

Forecasts from airhint.com

The service itself is extremely simple and intuitive, although on English language. We enter the start and end points, the date and search.

In the screenshot above, on the route Tallinn - Milan Bergamo for the specified date, we are shown a price of 40.79 euros, and it is proposed to buy at this price. Why buy? At the bottom of the picture, two charts show that the probability of a price decrease on this date is 5%, and the price level for the current month is from 30 to 253 euros, that is, 40.79 looks quite good.

The opposite situation is also possible, when the price of this moment does not seem to be very profitable and it is possible to reduce it in the future.

In the picture above, the service assumes a price reduction for this route with a probability of 70% and recommends you wait with the purchase. Is it worth listening to such advice? Everyone decides for himself. If it is decided to wait, then it will be necessary to check ticket prices daily so as not to miss the desired reduction.

By the way, if the price is high relative to the monthly average, this does not mean at all that it has the potential to decrease. For example, here:

It seems like the price is close to the maximum values for this month. At the same time, the service estimates the probability that it will decrease at only 36%. Therefore, it is argued that although the price is not optimal, it is better to buy now. That is, it probably won't get any better. Well, or you can look for other options, more profitable.

That's all, simple, clear and illustrative. As far as I saw, the prices of the service correspond to the real prices of the airlines, there were no errors. Personally, I liked the resource, now I will use it when planning.
