If you outward flight is cancelled, is the return leg automatically cancelled?

No, Ry are a point to point airline. Even though it says return it is in fact two one way flights. Hence why, unlike other airlines, you can miss your outward flight without your return being automatically cancelled.

Anyone come across this issue before or any advice?

Booked to go to Lanzarote in November with family (4adults, 1 toddler and 1 baby) and had originally paid extra (albeit at the time was only about 10 or 15 each) for a particular time that day as the times suited us a lot better as traveling from Mayo and for the earlier flight we'd be leaving at 1 in the morning.

Booked the car park in Dublin and then last week was going to organise airport transfers for Lanzarote as needed to book child car seats. Was in the process and for some reason I logged into Ryanair to get the times of arrival and departure and noticed they weren't right so went back and checked my email and the times had been changed on both departure and arrival days that we didn't originally want or book.

Rang them, chatted to them through there webchat and no one could give me an explanation for the change especially when I pointed out our original booking times are still there and available to book. We got no notification about the change and they are saying we can't request a change until we receive an email informing us of this change which mightn't be until 14 days before we depart so that leaves it very difficult to book airport transfers and also if I have to inform the car park about our new arrival and departure times.

Think if they had changed us and informed us off the change because they had to cut the flights from two flights to one flight out of Dublin I could see the sense in it but when our original booking times are still there both ways I just can't understand why this change was made and also how difficult it is to get an answer from Ryanair. Both Ryanair customer service agents could only tell me they couldn't tell me anything about this change as they didn't make the change!!

Why does Ryanair prompt you to upload covid certs if not required to enter a country? Flying to Spain so not required. Is it a case they prefer not to yak it out for certain countries so leave it for all flights as easier for them?

Because they have to handle the 20kg bags, but you carry the 10kg ones?

Ryanair cancelled a flight out and back I was due to take next month.

They sent me an email with 2 options.

Switch to next available flight or move to day before or day after.

Is it true there is meant to be an option to cancel for a refund? They don't include it in email...pretty misleading...

Brilliant.

They could include that in the options then in their email...pretty misleading to say the least.

Flying this weekend with Ryanair and on the cheapest option as one night trip so small bag will do. The flight seems to be empty enough as still seats for €30. I presume I’ll get some random seat. If I get on the plane last could I just pick some random seat?

you will be assigned a seat at checkin

So I've no hope then, its not great. Again I don't mind them changing it but surely some notice, especially as the time has changed 365 days out from original flight... I doubt at this stage they will go back to my time!

Looking for advice with a cancelled flight. I booked a return flight from Cork to Lanzarote and received an e-mail last week saying that the return flight was cancelled due to commercial reasons and that I could (a) get a full refund, or (b) book a replacement flight at no extra cost.

I absolutely did not want to lose out on this holiday (first in years) so I chose the option of a replacement flight. No replacement flights available to Cork, but there was a flight to Shannon on the same day. I followed the cancellation link, selected the replacement flight option and hit 'confirm change'. At this point, it simply would not process the booking for some reason. I stayed at this for over an hour and it simply would not process the request to change. I also tried contacting Ryanair directly and was on hold for just under an hour when the line simply went dead. The online chat at the time was a Bot and it said that all agents were unavailable.

I didn't want to have to deal with the stress of this overnight and the fear of the replacement flight being fully booked so I made a new booking for the replacement flight. However, including car hire to get back to Cork, the cost of the replacement flight was almost €400 more expensive. I only want to be refunded the difference between the original booking and the new booking but the Ryanair online chat said this was not an option and that I should have contacted an agent to make the change. No regard whatsoever that the flight change option didn't work and it is impossible to get hold of somebody. It is of no benefit to me to disregard the free flight change on the same booking for a totally new booking at much higher cost.
