Ryanair's announced transition to 100% digital boarding passes is confirmed for Wednesday, 12 November.
For a faster, smarter and more sustainable travel experience
“To ensure a hassle-free transition to 100% digital boarding passes for our customers, we will be making the switch from Wednesday 12 November, traditionally a slightly quieter travel period after the early November holidays,- explains Dara Brady Ryaniar’s CMO. -Ryanair's transition to 100% digital boarding passes will offer passengers a faster, smarter and more sustainable travel experience, made even easier thanks to the myRyanair app.”
Downloading the myRyanair digital app will be mandatory
So as of 12 November passengers will no longer be able to download and print a paper boarding pass, but will instead have to use the digital one generated in the “myRyanair” app during check-in to board their flight. This is the latest step in the digital transformation of Ryanair, which has already introduced numerous features and initiatives within its app to improve the travel experience for passengers.
From preordering food and drinks to boarding updates
The digital transformations already introduced include, for example, Ordertoseat which allows passengers to order food and drinks directly from their phone and receive them first, Live Flight Information which are real-time updates on boarding, gates and delays, and Direct Disruption Updates which are live notifications from the Ryanair Operations Centre in the event of disruptions. Today, almost 80% of the Irish low-cost airline's 206 million passengers already use the digital boarding pass.
