Sports & Music Equipment Luggage
Sports equipment fitting within cabin bag limits can be taken onboard Ryanair flights. Oversized items may require purchasing an extra seat, while large or potentially dangerous equipment must be checked in for a fee (20kg limit, 30kg for bikes). Bicycles need protective packaging; electric bikes are not allowed. Extra seat purchases do not increase baggage allowance.
You are permitted to carry any sports equipment with you onboard as long as it fits within your cabin bag allowance. For sports equipment that exceeds our cabin baggage dimensions and that fit safely in the seat, without obstructing other passengers, you can opt to pay an extra seat fare for it. To do this, you must purchase an extra flight ticket and seat. To book this extra seat, the word EXTRA must be entered as the first name, and ITEM SEAT must be entered as the surname.
Large sporting equipment (including large fishing rods, golf clubs, bikes, scooters, fencing equipment, pole vaults, javelins, surfboards, bodyboards, snowboards, and skis) and sporting equipment that could be used as a weapon (such as baseball bats or martial arts equipment) are unsuitable for being carried in the cabin on our flights. However, for a fee, these items each weighing up to 20kg can be carried in the hold.
