    She may have to declare herself "impaired disability" to carry them on FOC.

    At that Ryanair will only allow four people with disability on board any flight as a safety precaution.

    You should ask for special assistance and it might be no harm to have a fit to fly cert which you can get from the doctors.

    There was a guy with 2 of those crutches on my flight on Sunday and he had to wait until everyone had boarded until he was lifted up in to the plane. they had saved three seats for him. He didnt seem to have a cast on.

    You really should phone Ryanair and explain the situation.
