Changing passenger type
When you make a booking for multiple passengers you need to select their passenger type. This is based on whether they are an adult (+16 years), teen (12-15 years), child (2-11 years) or an infant (under 2 years). You will need to make sure they have the right passenger type by the time they travel, if not, you can make changes by:
- Click ‘My Bookings’ on Ryanair’s website or ‘My trips’ on the mobile app.
- Log into your myRyanair account.
- Go to ‘Manage this booking’ on the booking you need to change.
- Select ‘Change passenger type’ option.
- Choose the passenger(s) you want to change.
- Enter the passengers date of birth and confirm to change passenger type.
- Continue to finish the passenger type change.
Once the change is confirmed, you will be brought back to the upcoming trip page and the passenger type will be updated.
We might need to make changes to your seat when you change passenger type. You’ll be taken to the seat map to confirm your new seat and the payment page if needed.
Passenger type changes are free of charge. Though, if you are changing a child to an adult, you won’t get a free seat through our Family seats rules and will need to pay a fee.
