    Does anyone know when you book a flight with Ryanair do you have to book any extra luggage then or can you do it at a later date?

    Hi,

    Just a question ...

    Do you have to pay for any luggage on Ryanair ? I know you allow a cabin bag that fits certain specs for free but what about your luggage that goes into the cargo - do you have to pay for that per kilo?

    Many thanks !

    Check in bags are expensive on Ryanair. The list of charges is on their website and varies according to route and time of year. Exceed the allowed weight of the bag you've paid for and there are fees by kg.

    Thanks for the reply. I was thinking of bringing 2 bags but nothing too heavy but enough clothes for a week or 2.

    Are you allowed a base weight for your luggage though or do they charge for anything ?

    I was looking at that but wasn't exactly sure what they meant.

    Each passenger may check in up to two checked bags upon payment of the applicable checked baggage fees ......by electing to purchase a checked baggage allowance of either 15 kilos or 20 kilos when make their initial booking.

    sounds like you are only allowed 15 - 20 kilos with you in the cargo of the plane and you have to pay for that !

    Two things, almost all airlines charge for bags for intra Europe flights. Secondly, if you pack smart you should be able to get a week's worth of clothes into a carry on bag.

    Should be able to get a lot more than 2 weeks. I've band travelling around Asia for three months hand luggage only.

    You can bring a 10 kg bag into the cabin with you for no charge. You can also bring a smaller handbag sized bag for no charge.

    If you want to check in a bag, you can, for a fee. No checked in bags are ever free on Ryanair. There are two weight categories, 15 kg and 20kg. You pick the one that suits you. You can purchase a checked bag when you book your ticket. Or you can do it later on. You can add a checked bag online up to 4 hrs before your flight departs. If you wait to to do it at the airport, the fees are a lot more. What the fees are depending on where you are flying to and whether you are traveling at peak or off peak time. The schedule of fees are all listed on the Ryanair website link listed above.
