What is Ryanair’s Family Seat Policy?

Ryanair allows passengers to either purchase reserved seats, choosing their location and checking in up to 60 days before departure, or opt for free random seat allocation, with check-in available 24 to 2 hours before the flight. Reserved seat prices vary by seat location.

Ryanair offers the option to purchase reserved seats or free seats, which are assigned randomly during check-in. Passengers who choose ‘random seat allocation’ can check in between 24 hours and 2 hours before the flight departure time.

If you purchase a seat at the time of booking, during check-in, or at any point leading-up to your flight, you can choose where to sit and that seat will be reserved for you. Online check-in opens 60 days before the scheduled departure time if you have purchased an allocated seat.

The price of a reserved seat depends on where you choose to sit on the aircraft.
