Online Checkin with Ryanair - 04/27/08 12:16 PM
Hi
Short Question: Is the NIE card (residency card)acceptable for web check-in with Ryanair? Supposedly they are supposed to ID everyone before boarding but I've flown numerous times where not one has ID'd, ie asked for a passport.
Longer Question: when ever I fly with Ryanair I always check a bag and pay the fee for airport checkin. I do this because the only place I fly to is the UK and it's to visit family and to go shopping so we always bring a suitcase of stuff back with us. This time I'm flying for two nights alone so I can easily travel with carry-on only.
Accordingly you can only do that if you can provide an EU/EEE passport or identity card. Like I said above I've flown (within EU) many times and never been asked for a passport/ID card.
Thanks Rob
