What is Ryanair’s Seat Policy?

Ryanair allows passengers to choose between purchasing reserved seats, with prices varying by location, or receiving free randomly assigned seats during check-in. Reserved seat holders can check in online up to 60 days before departure, while random seat allocation check-in opens 24 to 2 hours before the flight.

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.
