Ryanair baggage policy

MooShop

I haven't flown Ryanair this year, have a flight this weekend and got an email from them regarding their baggage policy.

All passengers on your booking can bring one small personal bag on board (max 40x20x25cm) that must fit under the seat in front of them.

Please note: If they bring a wheelie bag to the gate or if their small bag is too big to fit in the bag sizer, they'll be charged a fee of €25.

We usually bring carry on's but they usually have wheels, they are small enough to fit under the seat in front and haven't had an issue before, but would this be against the policy as stated above? All bags with wheels are prohibited in the cabin now?

We have a checked bag paid for as well so should have plenty of space for our stuff, just want to bring the right bags for the cabin so as not to be stung with extra charges.

If you can fit whatever is in the small wheelie into a schoolbag type rucksack that would be better really.
The dimensions allowed are very small for a wheelie. Are you sure yours is within the allowable size?

Not sure if exactly in allowable size but has fit in one of those baggage checkers before! Think we'll be ok either way, will just bring small rucksack type bag in the cabin and check large bag

The standard carry on checkers or the new small bag checkers?

It's a different checker altogether, less than half the size of the old carry on wheelie types

Very much this.

As long as it fits the size guide (40cm x 20cm x 25cm) you'll be okay I'd say.

If it's a normal hard, wheeled suitcase, it's not going to fit in the new checker. Anything more than a school backpack is going to be a squeeze.

And now that I look at the date of the OP, it would appear they've already travelled.

How'd you get on, OP?

Well spotted. I'd make you a mod but you're clearly overqualified :P

For future reference, I have a small standard Samsonite spinner and it fits those dimensions. It’s not that restrictive.
