Ryanair's €100 fee for checking in two bags


Customers will soon face a fee of €100 for checking in two bags at the airport.
The low-cost carrier said that it's going to charge fliers more than three times the amount it previously did to check in a second bag at the airport, pushing the price up to €70. If it's checked in online, it will cost €35.
The airline also said that the price of checking in a first bag over the internet will jump 50pc to €15, and to €30 if it's checked in at the airport. Passengers can expect to pay the same again when they're flying home.
Those wanting to bring their skis on holidays this winter can expect to pay €40 for checking them in online, or €50 if they do so at the airport -- Again just one-way.
And for every kilo that a bag is overweight, passengers will have to pay €20, up from €15.
The changes will be effective from October 1. In addition the weight allowance for each customer's total number of checked-in bags will double from 15 kilos to 30 kilos. So, do the math when comparing ticket prices.
