    Mighty Mods I know this is the wrong forum but a brother is in urgent need of an answer:

    I'll be getting a flight with Ryanair in the near future but I will be needing to bring (check-in) 2 suitcases. But on the website it only let's you choose 1 bag....what's up with that? How do I check in a second bag?

    Do I just have to turn up and ask them to check in the second one? If so, won't that cost a fuck load? (how much?). Thanks.

    It's no problem, you just hand them the second bag along with your wallet.

    It's €40 per bag I think.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,867 ✭✭✭UglyBolloxFace


    A check-in bag bought at time of booking online is 30 quid - so if I bring along a second to the airport, it'll be 40?

    About 40 strap-ons, 18 tubs of lube and 20 blow up dolls.

    Oh sorry .. wrong thread.

    From this website it says that more than one bag can be checked in online - http://ryanair.site-forums.com/t1093-ryanair-increases-check-in-bag-allowance-from-1-to-2-bags But there's no ****ing option on the website booking form to pick 2 bags, only 1. What the ****.

    It's the weight of the bags they will rightly screw you on

    Cool, thanks. By the way, off topic I know, but are you really in Baku? And if so, why??

    Here's what'll be happening:

    - I'll be taking the plane from a UK airport to Dublin.
    - I'll be choosing one bag to check in on the website as it won't let me pick two.
    - I'll be then bringing along my two cases, 1 that's already paid for, and then 1 that I will be paying for.
    - - so will they charge me 40 pound? (provided I keep it at or under 20 kg, or is it 15 kg?).

    Give them a ring in the morning. Honestly it will take 3 mins tops. Ive never had issues with them. Calls ARE answered really fast. Check the site for weights!! Welcome home :)

    They charge per bag and you still only get 15kg. Two bags, you do NOT get 30kg, you just get to pay over double for the same weight allowance. If you duct tape/clingfilm/bungee cord the two bags together, you can check them as a single bag (I do this all the time.) There are often wrapping machines at airports that will do this for you for a fee less extortionate than paying for the extra bag.

    Thanks for your reply. However, the bungee cord thing wouldn't be feasible, because I actually have two full-size suitcases.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,995 ✭✭✭✭blorg


    They will probably be over 15kg together in that case, in which case you will be severely extorted on the excess weight. You can certainly wrap two full size suitcases together otherwise, I saw worse on my last flight to India.

    Note if you book a "bicycle" you get 30kg allowance with Ryanair for that bag. €40. Might be worth a try.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,933 ✭✭✭holystungun9


    I''m pretty sure they only allow one bag. If you do need to check in a second then you have to pay them to hire another plane. And yes, you have to pay the taxes etc. a second time.

    Go to the manage my booking section on Ryanair.com and you can add the bag on there. And it is another 15kg. It used to be just the bag and no more weight but they changed it a while ago.
